Sam from Trick ‘r Treat sticker! Another shot at practicing with the ol’ photoshop. I’m super happy with how this turned out! I tried to focus on experimenting with multiple layers of texture and trying new techniques. #trickrtreat #trickrtreatsam #samhain #trickortreat #halloween #horror #horroranthology #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #digital #digitalart #photoshop #digitalpainting #portrait

“Red, I might have know it’d be red”. Now that I have photoshop I’m trying to play around with new brushes I never had with manga studio, I made this Carrie sticker to just experiment with some new textures. I don’t think I’d do a whole tee design with this brush, but it does give me some ideas... #carrie #carriewhite #carriewhiteburnsinhell #sissyspacek #stephenking #stephenkingrules #horrormovies #horrorjunkie #horror #classichorror #drawing #sketch #digitalart #digitalpainting #photoshop #portrait

Finished Raphael commission for @glantern43! Had a lot of fun with this guy and it was my first time using contact paper to cover the figure so I could airbrush the background. #teenagemutantninjaturtles #tmnt #ninjaturtles #teenagemutantninjaturtle #raphael #1990s #90s #nostalgia #peterlaird #kevineastman #comics #drawing #sketch #illustration #airbrush #copic #coloredpencil #ink #sharpie #whitegelpen #acrylics #whiteout #portrait #turtle

My Monster design is available now @teevillain! Ended up turning my practice painting of Boris into a fully fledged tee design. My favorite of the classic monsters, in sour apple green! #teevillain #teeshirtdesign #frankenstein #frankensteinsmonster #monster #creature #boriskarloff #classichorror #universalstudios #universalmonsters #horror #horrormovies #horrorjunkie #drawing #sketch #digitalpainting #digitalart #photoshop

Quick Ghostface painting done in acrylics over an airbrushed background on illustration board. I’ve been trying to experiment and practice more with my airbrush set since my wife gave it to me for Christmas, so I tried creating a value scale frome black to white on a piece of illustration board. I liked how it looked, so I sketched out Ghostface on it in white pencil and then painted him in the next day! #scream #ghostface #wescraven #whatsyourfavoritescarymovie #horror #slasher #90s #90shorror #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #painting #acrylicpainting #acrylics #airbrush #drawing #sketch #portrait

“You’re dead meat, slime ball”! A fun idea trying to imagine what those street punks saw what was under the mask in Jason takes Manhattan! Definitely inspired by @samhain1992 and @devondraws latest Friday designs. #jasonvoorhees #jasontakesmanhattan #fridaythe13th #fridaythethirteenth #newyork #toxicwaste #mutant #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #horror #drawing #sketchcard #sketch #artisttradingcard #copic #coloredpencil #ink #sharpie #whitegelpen #portrait

So I’ve been sitting on this for a couple of weeks and I’m extremely proud to announce that my artwork will adorn the cover of the upcoming documentary Pennywise: The story of IT! The documentary from @johnspianocamp will take an in depth/behind the scenes look at the making of the original 1990 miniseries of Stephen King’s IT. If you’re of the original or King in general you need to hop on following @pennywisedoc ASAP! Big shout out to @stephenkingandchill for getting myself and the filmmakers in touch! #it #stephenkingsit #stephenking #timcurry #pennywise #pennywisethedancingclown #derrymaine #ilovederry #pennywisedoc #pennywisethestoryofit #documentary #horror #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #stephenkingrules

Darth Vader sketch card prize for @heathenspeople! I don’t draw the baddest man in the galaxy very often, but I feel like this is definitely my best attempt! #darthvader #lordvader #darklordofthesith #anakinskywalker #starwars #theempirestrikesback #sith #scifi #sciencefiction #villain #drawing #sketch #sketchcard #artisttradingcard #copic #coloredpencil #ink #whitegelpen #sharpie #portrait

Boris Karloff as Frankenstein’s monster digital painting! My favorite of the classic universal monsters. Just did this guy for practice, but he may become a tee design soon, albeit in a greener hue. Who’s your favorite classic monster? #frankenstein #frankensteinsmonster #boriskarloff #universalstudios #universalmonsters #universalclassicmonsters #horror #classichorror #monster #horrormovies #horrorjunkie #drawing #sketch #digitalpainting #mangastudio #digitalart #portrait

#wip Stephen King as Jordy Verrill from Creepshow! The first of two sketch card prizes for @heathenspeople who won my recent giveaway. I love horror anthology films and Creepshow is one of the best. Give it a look if you’re into creepy fun! #stephenking #stephenkingrules #creepshow #jordyverrill #meteorshit #horror #horroranthology #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #drawing #sketch #sketchcard #artisttradingcard #copic #coloredpencil #ink #sharpie #whitegelpen #portrait #theyrecreepinguponyou

Completed commission of @rosariodawson as Mimi from Rent! Very happy with how this came out! The main portrait is done in copics, sharpies, colored pencils, and white gel pen. The background is acrylic with accents of colored pencil. (For any former art students out there, this is an example of a complementary color scheme, specifically blue and orange) #rosariodawson #rent #mimi #mimimarquez #broadway #commission #art #copic #coloredpencil #ink #sharpie #whitegelpen #acrylicpainting #drawing #sketch #painting #portrait

#wip Willem Dafoe Norman Osborn/ The Green Goblin. Trying to challenge myself more with capturing likenesses and drawing different expressions. Still one of my favorite actors today in a seriously underrated role. He’s got some big shoes to fill if they ever bring Gobby into the marvel cinematic universe! #willemdafoe #normanosborn #thegreengoblin #greengoblin #spiderman #samraimi #marvel #marvelcomics #comic #comicbooks #sketch #sketchcard #drawing #artisttradingcard #copic #coloredpencil #ink #sharpie #whitegelpen #portrait
