heya!!! so excited to see you use tumblr. i have a question: what’s a painting you used to dislike but now find joy in? a lot of my old art i used to dislike and tried to think of all of the ways of fixing it, but now in the present i’m starting to grow really fond of it. kinda like a “wow i’ve actually improved so much but i still like the way i did this work” if that makes sense? have you ever had an experience like that?

Hi. Great question.

I think this piece of Marion from Raiders of the Lost Ark that I did for my friend Charlie back in 2002.

I had pretty much given up on traditional art at this time. I hated my art. I hated colored pencils. I literally took 10 years off (away from traditional art) after this piece.

Charlie was a good friend and he loved Indiana Jones. So... I slapped some watercolors down on bristol paper and did a REALLY quick sketch of Marion for him... and... never thought of it again.

For the next 10 years, I worked mainly in 3D/Digital doing my webcomic The Dreamland Chronicles. I didn't touch traditional art until 2011 when I decided to learn watercolors.

I look back on it now with a sense of nostalgia as this was the last colored pencil illustration I did before that long 10 year break and even though it was just a quick little sketch for a friend... it's not that bad.

BLACK SAILS • IX. | XXXVI.

2.01 "So this is the lesson… the pirates of New Providence Island are incorrigible, dedicated to mayhem. To attempt to address this subject is doomed to defeat from the outset." "It's not him I wanted you to see. [No mercy! Go all the way to hell!] It's them." 4.08 "Those are the pirates. They've inhabited the east bank, across from Springett Island for years. The governor promises this is the year he'll chase them off, but there they are. Seven major shipping concerns in the city here. In less than 10 years, more goods will move through here than any English-speaking port outside London."
