Seven Year Itch
« on: Jun 14, 2013, 04:24 PM »
Seven Years. I hate that I've been inactive so long. I love Void but I quit when I had my first child and even quit tattooing and drawing trying to pursue a more "grown-up" career path for the family. Did some college, got a government job as a felony court clerk. It was like Office Space. So mundane and boring and I suddenly found myself alienated from the artist friends in my life. I actually went an entire year without doing a single sketch. Thank God budget cuts came so I was one of the lucky few to get an ass kicking out of a cubicle so I went back to my roots of being a theme park caricature artist again... which eventually prompted me to get back into tattooing.

So I'm happy to say now that I've rediscovered my love for drawing and have no intentions of ever leaving the art world again. It Sucked. I feel that Im a better inspiration to my kids when I succeed by pursuing my passion. Ive been tattooing again now for the past 2 years and buisness is doing great. I still even do caricatures at Busch Gardens Tampa about twice a month for the fun of it. I missed the hell out of Void. Ive always reccomended it to any amature artists and friends I came across. I feel great being locked into a battle again and am excited to learn and develop from you guys.

I have a ton of caricatures I'd like to show and instead of uploading 100+ images to some image hosting site all at once Ill just invite you guys to check out my facebook page. I'll get some work posted here soon as well.

Oh wow loving your caricatures there! I'm a little too young to have known you in void, but totally glad to hear your passion for art has been rediscovered! and I can't wait to see your battle that's coming up soon!

Thanks for the welcome guys. Here's a couple pieces I was really proud of. I did the pen and inking while my buddy Esteban Perez-Palmer did the digital coloring. Trying to get him to teach me. He's sick on colors.






Some other commission pieces I did on my own

With all these sea monsters I think you should make a Captain Ahab-eqsue character.

Slick work though, looking forward to more.
STILL spoken about in disgraceful social circles

Yeah from the hints Ive seen of your pages, Im feeling like I really have a challenge ahead of me. Your colors are awesome and I am opting out of anything digital since I have very little experience with it. If I have time I may just end up coloring with markers. Im excited cuz I think your character is a perfect fit for an Abomino fight. I'm giving this one all I got.
