PORTFOLIO
This is Logan and Diego with the dog (Great Dane) Brooklyn. This pair lives in Chicago in the getto.
A piece I did in my Drawing Painting class. I thought sene I draw guys a lot I should take a break and draw a woman.
I drew this last year for my last project before my final. This is done in water color and ball point pen.
The background is done with charcoal and pastel. The creature on it, which is a hyena, is done in ink.
I used bengay to etch the hand and bodys in. I burnt the edges because I like that effect. I also used ball point pen and ink
This is a painting done with Doctor Martin's Ink. I also used ball point pen and ink. The character I drew is called Hannible.
This is a collage I did for my Drawing and Painting class. The character onthe bottum is Sin, a beast I usally call a yaoi fairy or pixy even though she is more like a dragon.
This is my found project I did last in Drawing and Painting class. I used cardboard my old writings and string as some of the materials. I also used spray paint, ink, Doctor Martin's Inks and I burt the edges to cause the effect.
These are two characters I write about very often. The tall one is Ken Koi and the short one is Minako Ki. They are my characters for a yaoi book I'm writing. I used collage, pencil and Doctor Martin's Ink.
My characters Minako and Ken at a party.Minako got drunk and these are the results. Just a little comic I did.
A hyena I drew and colored for photoshop.
A peice I did in my sketchbook and decided I liked the anatomy a lot. I did this over the summer.
I did this for a contest.
I drew this for devaint art. The gray and red dragon is Sin, my Yaoi Pixie. The pale, off white one with the brown and purple main is Unknown.
A fake Manga cover I did for Digital Arts before summer started. It is for a story I've been writing called Modern Boys.
Again, these are my characters, Ken and Minako. Something I worked with for Digital Arts
This is a profile on my roleplaying character. This site is roleplayed with werewolves and vampires.
This was based off of a conversation me and my friends had.
This is Logan and me illistrating his crack addiction and his relation to crack.
My characters, Logan and Dallas in the Chicago winter. I got inspired by the constant snow here.
One of the first females I have drawn by choice.

BIO
My Design philosophy is, I think designers should be willing to put both drawings and digitally altered photo's anywhere. Design is not as far away from art and illstration at all. I hope to get better at both my photoshop/illstration skills and drawing skills. I'm currently into drawing male anatomy and animals. I am also starting to work with colored pencils and improving my skills in drawing girls.
My Inspiration comes from anime and manga, mostly japanese art. I'm also influenced from japanese cultere. My current inspiration is yaoi and shonen-ai art. I also get my insperation from animals like wolves, hyenas, dogs and rats. My insperation for drawings also comes from the story and rp characters that I write about. Most of my drawing are based on characters personalities, problems and the story behind them.
My Materials are usally ink and balled point pens. But I have started to use colored pencil and more graphite. I also use mecanical pencil to sketch out roughs of characters and sometimes in final projects. For digital coloring, I use photoshop and illistrator the most. I will sometimes use flash and I will make it a point to learn Flash more.
