afroblue

I've been listening to a lot of Robert Glasper and The Robert Glasper Experiment lately. The sketch was done while on hold with PSEG the other day. figured I'd doodle while on what felt like an infinite hold (27 minutes to be exact). I had played Afro Blue from Black Radio - The Remix EP a few times while waiting. Erykah Badu on vocals, with Phonte dropping a nice 16 bars, is a great combination.

Later decided to take the idea from the doodle and see what I could do with it in Photoshop, and voila!!

It reminds me of a 70s AfroSheen ad to be honest. But anyway, if you're looking for some good music, check out Robert Glasper, his music is pretty good!!

headphones n such

got some new brushes in PS and sketched this out....

R.I.P. Bobby Womack....

Bobby Womack (March 4, 1944 - June 27, 2014) was one of my favorite singers. "You're Welcome, Stop On By", "Woman's Gotta Have It" and his version of "California Dreamin'" are a few of my favorite songs. Here's a drawing I did in Photoshop of Mr. Womack....may he Rest In Peace..

As always, thanks for coming by!

The Punisher "Kill 'em Again!!"

20 minute sketch of one of my favorite Marvel characters....The Punisher

Working on it... (W.I.P.)

Something new I'm working on. In between computer shut downs due to my laptop being dropped (Tales From Daddy Day Care), hope to have this completed very soon.

Luke Cage W.I.P.

Here's a W.I.P. that I never finished for ghettoManga's Luke Cage tribute....never got around to finishing it.....not sure why, but I didn't...but here it is....

Oh, and check out ghettoManga, HERE

Smiling Faces

...this started as a caricature loosely based on myself (see the shiny spot on the nose, and big-ass smile....see it?? I knew you would!) while listening to Gnarls Barkley's song "Smiley Faces" a few years ago....just added some color to it in a 25 minute timed session

Sketchy Character(s)

...been using my Wacom Tablet lately to create some characters, while getting used to drawing with NO pen or pencil (its kind of strange), but since everything is one click away, its become quite addictive!!  Those that follow my Deviant Art page will see a few *ahem* racier pictures that won't get posted here......well at least for now....in the meantime, here are two creations I laid down this week, while listening to a heap-load of hip-hop.....

Thanks for stopping by!!!

New Art: The Planetarium

Ok, so the digital art isn't as scary as I previously said.  Its been a lot of fun messing around with filters, brushes, etc.  Enough about my new found joy for Photoshop, check the art:  Its a planet, some nebula and stars....this is what happens while creating and watching old school episodes of Voltron

Keeping busy......

...with designing some business cards.  There's quite a bit of thought that goes into putting these cards together.  Anyway, here are a couple of the designs I put together.......
