a very literal sea dragon. heat propulsion? mid-atlantic ridge + leafy sea dragon.

working on a species design for some quadruped shark hybrids. still need to work a bit more on fin placement and anatomical details. debating whether or not they should be like dogs and come in a variety of body types and sizes.

some sketches from the sd zoo. idk why but drawing at the zoo always devolves into drawing people at the zoo.

some personal stuff. teasing out a species. a sort of beastly "dragon" based on a mix of otters and lions.

how does one draw expressive eagle eyes

sketches for an eldritch abomination type of creature. still toying with ideas to make its long body weirder.

sorry for being MIA. art center is stressful. mostly a lot of small assignments. barely enough time to blog, much less update all threads on various sites.

Some lantern concepts for class. They're probably all impractical fire hazards, but I was avoiding traditional lantern designs.

sketches from a recent trip to san francisco. mostly aquatic animals.

Beautiful stuff so far. I especially like the watercolours towards the bottom - that trout looks delicious!
