"All I ask is that you remain calm" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 10" x 7"

Another piece for the Twilight Zone themed show coming up at Gallery 1988 LA - inspired by the episode "The Odyssey of Flight 33". (the one where a plane randomly travels in time, and they passengers can't get home)

"There was time now"

"There was time now" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 10" x 7"

For a Twilight Zone themed show coming up at Gallery 1988 LA - inspired by the episode "Time Enough at Last". (the one where the guy survives an H-bomb and finally has all the time he wants to read... then his glasses break).

Unless I change my mind submitting this piece, ha.

Hawaii Bear

"Hawaii Bear" - watercolor in sketchbook - 8" x 5"

Just got back in town. Really great trip -- didn't have much time to draw, but here's one little guy I managed to sketch out.

Back to the craziness... too many shows to prepare for!

Back on Tuesday...

Heading out to Hawaii for a short vacation with friends. Should be fun, my first time there!

I'll do some sketching, etc - but probably won't be posting until Tuesday-ish.

Okay, I'm off to go drink things out of coconuts! (They drink everything out of coconuts in Hawaii, right?)

Bait

"Bait" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 6" x 4"

This one definitely didn't end up being about the Twilight Zone as I had hoped... but I like it.

Hopefully the next one I'll be able to stay on target though. Ha.

Steam

"Steam" - ink and watercolor on paper - collaboration piece with Joe To - 10" x 7"

Collaboration piece with my incredibly talented buddy Joe To. You can see more of his work in this interview he did with Juxtapoz a few months back.

The fruits of the weekend... a bit crazy, a bit darker. Should go nicely with the Blossoming Tree piece at the Giant Robot show coming up.

This is actually the third attempt at the blue tree... the one I posted last time ended up as a miserable failure. Ah well, failure is good for you right?

'night!
