CARTOONY

Thank you to Urban Sketchers organization for awarding me Honorable Mention, for an on-location sketch event! Here's a photo of some of my equipment--my fun portable folding desk, and a cool Guerilla Girls backpack purchased at the Tate Museum in London:


 
The medium I used was Posca markers, on color paper.

 

 
 
It was a fun challenge doing background designs for the Apple+ series "Stillwater."
The style of the "koan" fairytales was different in almost every episode.

 Various cartoony bg designs

These two pages of concepts were for a cartoony show--fundamentally, Dogs Meet Star Trek. Instead of rendering one view of the command deck, I explored multiple ideas. For the captain's chair, I scribbled some simple geometric shapes and carved seat-like forms out of them.

One of my favorite things is sketch directly onto paper. Most of the following were done on large rolls of white paper, using an ink marker.

I'm a fan of Tim Burton's work, and did a few Halloween-town-esque doodles.



 
 
This sketch was drawn at Epcot near the Chinese pavilion, on a rainy day.

Lots of people were wearing rain ponchos...
 

 
These were drawn on-location at New Orleans. I used a bit of china marker on the street scene sky.

The live music there was incredibly inspiring...





This was an on-location sketch drawn after the Mt Pinatubo eruption--

this is my Grandmother's house in the Philippines.
