Working out that SpongeBob Expression...

Dang it...I'm gonna get this expression right eventually. Even though I usually work on the Cintiq, it often takes good ol' pencil and paper to work out those poses.

Bloopy Doodle gets the full Digital Painting Treatment with ArtRage

What happens when you take a nonsensical doodle and dcide to make a painting out of it?
Apparently, "this" happens: I call it, "Red Bloop"

More Abstract Springtime Doodle-Fun!

This is what comes out of my brain when I'm not drawing somebody else's cartoon creations. The mind rebels in weird ways...

Color Doodle: Psychedelic Faces Fiesta

Drawn with black marker on an index card. I took it into Photoshop, created a gradient background and turned the black layer into "Overlay" mode. Just to snazz it up :P

Another Meeting Doodle: "W."

BTW: the "W" stands for Wednesday.

Phone Doodle: Three things to Remember…

I’ve been teaching a storyboarding class over at Disney Consumer Products in Glendale, CA. Here’s a phone doodle I scribbled while I was asking some questions about the physical classroom setup.
Don’t forget:

• Log Out
• Time
• Chair

That is all.

Doodling on Storyboard Revision Notes

So I’m testing out some new markers and brush pens that I picked up at Kinokuniya in Little Tokyo. I ended up doodling all over the Fish Hooks animatic notes I was working on!

I thought it would be fun to post the sketches, but the printout has all kinds of secret notes about an upcoming episode, plus I wanted to remove all the crew names peppered throughout the document. So when you see some places that looked like the typing has been censored, it has!

Here’s the whole sheet…maybe after the episode airs later this year, I can post the whole scan without all the redactions…

More Sketchy Fun with Index Cards

A few days a go I posted the little happy dude that jumped out of my pen…here’s a couple more stream-of-consciousness sketches that escaped from the ink barrel of my doodle pen…
More to come? Only time (and your comments) will tell….

I’m Happy! Index Card Doodle

Nice to start off the week with a happy thought. I grabbed a few index cards before heading into a meeting, and this is what came out

Brush Pen Doodle-Fest

I just love sketching with a brush pen!

I thought these photos looked cooler than just scanning the artwork...but it was a bit hard to keep my phone's camera focused.

I like sketching with the PITT Artists Pen (make sure to choose the "Brush Nib"), but I mostly use the Japanese Mitsubishi PFK205 double-sided brush pen which you can get from JetPens.com http://www.jetpens.com/Uni-ball-Double-Sided-Pocket-Brush-Pen-Fine-Medium/pd/2015

Weird Sketchy Doodles!

Here are some of the weirder sketchy doodles that have emerged from my pens recently!

An Almost-Random Selection of Doodley-Sketches

Name that Doodle!

Another sketchbook exploration through the subconscious.. this time drawn with a red felt-tip marker.

What could it mean? What horrifying secrets lay hidden between the lines?

These are all from the same sheet of letter-sized copy paper...
