The other day at work, some idiot client told us that we couldn't possibly put facial hair on any of our adorable 3d people. Nah, why would you want to do something that makes it easy to distinguish between tons of characters at a glance. Oh clients...They always know best.

A friend of mine once told me a funny story about a guy who used to beat him up as a kid. Naturally, I completely forgot the story other than the nickname of the main bully, "The Beak." For whatever reason, this is what I imagined him to look like. When I showed my friend the doodle, he said, "Nope, that really doesn't look like him at all." To which I replied, "Perfect."

After watching a random sampling of what passes for children's cartoons recently I realized that something must be done. (I'm working on a few ideas...most likely none have anything to do with the doodle above) I think two of the best new shows are on Cartoon Network: Chowder and The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack Check 'em out if you haven't seen them yet!

So while this isn't Kurfuffle, I am here to say that I'm back! I appologize to everyone for leaving for so long, and thank those who continue to peek in and see if I'm still alive. I have been moving and it's taken a lot longer than I had hoped. I still have boxes that need unpacking but I'm starting to put my life back together. Thank you all again. Here's just a quick sketch I did for a concept at work today. I'll be around more often, I promise....and as for Kurfuffle......soonish.

Hey there folks! I'm still pretty busy these days but one of the fun things I'm making time for is painting...lots and lots of painting. I'm trying to experiment and at the same time learn how to paint. The piece above is acrylic on a wood plank roughly 17x9in. It doesn't have a title yet but I'm open to suggestions. More to come! I think I might eventually try to sell them along with limited edition prints....stay tuned...

Helllloooo! It's been a while but I think I have a good reason for not posting...I've been working on a new painting. I'm going to be in a gallery show at the end of the month featuring work that was painted on skate decks. I'm honored to be included with a bunch of really talented people. If you're in the NJ/NY area, you should come check it out! The opening will be at Maxwell's gallery in Hoboken, NJ on June 23rd. The show runs for about two months and everything is for sale. I can't wait to see what everybody's made. The theme for the show is nature...my entry is posted above. Hope to see some of you there! (Thanks to Andrea for putting the show together!)

"Conflict Resolution" A New Animated Short, Finally! (Not For The Kids): A Rope Of Sand



Hey everybody, as promised, here's what I've been working endlessly on for the past three months! This is the newest animated short I made with some very talented friends as an entry into the first annual Opie and Anthony animation festival. It premiered last night at Roseland Ballroom in NYC to a packed audience of roughly 1,800 people. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! I'm very proud of how it turned out, great job everyone!

Oh and like the title suggests, there's some bad words and "adult situations" so this might not be one for the kids....because we all know nothing keeps kids away like telling them they can't see something...especially on the internets............. So enjoy, kids!

Here's some fun with watercolor. Above is the final and below is the process (although I like the final letterbox version on the bottom right.) I took it into photoshop and played with the colors. It's an experiment for creating background art in a new short I'm working on. The final BG's won't look anything like this piece but I had fun doing it.

"WHAT'S GOIN' ON..."

So as some of you might have noticed, lately (the past few months) I've been behind on the daily aspect of the "Daily Doodle." Life got in the way and doodle posting got pushed back. That's not to say that I haven't continued drawing every single day! I've even been "back-posting" my unfinished doodles in recent weeks...but now it's time for me to face the facts...It's already March and I miss the daily part of this site! No longer will this look like an untouched blog of yester-year...welcome to the now! (Basically I'm writing the current date from now on and posting daily...if I can't for some internet-less reason, I'll either post something beforehand or I'll tell you about my break and resume asap. Once again, something to look forward to!

I'd also like to thank all of the people who have been loyal fans of what I'm doing over here. I always like meeting new people, artists or not. Thank you all very much, your comments mean a lot to me and it still flatters me to know that more than just my folks are checking this page out. [ Not that having my folks looking is bad...heck sometimes it's the best way for them to learn about what's going on in my life. ;) ] ...and now, on to some NEW DOODLES!

Nuclear Family...and you!



UPDATE!!! WE WON THE CONTEST!!! Thanks to everyone for checking out our animation! Great job team!

Hey everybody, I'm excited and thought I'd share with you all that I just finished an animation I directed for a contest sponsored by the Opie and Anthony Radio Show and the new movie Be Kind Rewind. We're currently in the running for the top two entries. I couldn't be more excited! Please check it out and if you like it, tell as many people as you can!

I directed it, animated a bit and created all of the artwork as well. I had an awesome team of animators working with me and we kicked this out in 8 days. We're all huge fans of the show and managed to have the company we work for sponsor us to work on it. I hope you like it!

More doodles are on their way...i promise, it's been fortunately busy around my world.
