"You know how you get to Carnegie Hall don't ya? Practice." Here's a film composition/study I was fartin' around with that I decided to take to finish.

Coachella with The Gogo's round one, in the books!

Holy crap! It's been over 8 years since I've worked with a live band. Just like falling off a bike!

Many years ago I left my life as a roadie behind to pursue my dream career of working in animation. Unfortunately that industry is upside down right now and there is little work to be found. Luckily the music world I left behind is welcoming me back with open arms (temporarily). Thnx GOGOs 4 the gig

Ok, this is fuckin rad!

A New California Bill Is Proposing A 35% Subsidy For Animated Features, Series, And Shorts The passage of the bill could encourage more animation production in the state.

It's a proposal that could hopefully turn into a bill and get Animation out of this rut! It's also the first time any state incentive has been proposed for animation. Fingers crossed!

Music to my ears!

Amazing! You captured one of my all time favorite stories so well.

A while back I was hired to do some viz-dev work for an animated pitch based on a book called "The Bad Guys Won!", about the notorious 1986 Mets and their crazy partying. Right before we went to pitch, ESPN optioned a live action docu-series about it so it never went anywhere. Enjoy!

This is fantastic!

In my attempt to re-curate my art on other social media platforms I've come across some stuff I long since forgot about. Here's a little trash panda art I did a while back to help start your day. Enjoy!

YouTube video by Rotten Tomatoes TV Pantheon Season 1 Trailer

I just finished both season of "Pantheon". It's such a brilliant animated show and I'm so glad it found a second life on Netflix.
It's definitely worth a watch.

Final Space Season 2 Composite A real quick glimpse at a few shots I got to do a heavy color correction or FX pass on from Season 2 of Final Space.

Over the years I've been lucky enough to work with some amazing Post Production teams, creating killer FX for 2D animation. In this video clip from "Final Space" season 2 you can see the original shot which then wipes into the composite/VFX/color correction I created. Enjoy!

Oh damn, I'm a huge King fan and I've never read that one. Lemme get back to you!

As I was going through some old art I came across some "God of War" fan art I did a while back. It's still a favorite of mine so I felt like dusting it off to post here. Enjoy!

I took my dude up to Mountain High for his second day of snowboarding! It was an awesome day for sure.

Rad!!!

A while back I was asked to do some development work on the upcoming "FinalSpace" graphic novel. Ultimately, Olan went in a slightly different direction but I had a blast jumping back in to that world just the same. Here's a few pieces from that work.

I love that my kiddo loves to draw as much as his Mom and Dad!

I love to draw but I also LOVE to write. Here's a cover from a kids show pitch I came up with a while back. I never really tried to shop it, but I might crank out a pilot with all my new found down time. Enjoy!

Thanks for this one!

... here's years five and six (apparently it's a 4 image limit)

And so begins posting my art on Blue Sky! Every year since my sons first birthday I have been making these mock "Little Golden Books" to celebrate. It's one of my favorite personal projects...cuz ya know, I'm his Dad!

I'm slowly but surely making the jump from Facebook and IG in hopes of finding social media platforms that aren't run by people that make my skin crawl and my heart sad. As a digital artist I rely a lot on my digital presence so it's been tough to fully pull the trigger on leaving those two...
