it's fun to draw things. here's things. things are subjectively fun but drawing them is.

Mort Graves from Mort the Dead Teenager. He's leaning forward, hand on chin, with a stupid little smile on him. Apparently getting his picture taken, which is undeserving...

The inked sketch for the left picture. Same as, but colored, cleaned up, and digitized. On lined paper with brush pen, Sumo Grip mechanical pencil w/blue lead.

As storyboard plussers on The Patrick Star Show, they gave us a good amount of wiggle room to take gags and come up with ways to take them as far as possible.

Here's an example from "The Fun Bucket" where I took a moment where Pat opens a present almost TOO far during plussing!

a few plussed storypanels I drew for "The Show Must Go Yawn" while working on The Patrick Star Show.

had a ton of fun pushing the roughs that Trey Chavez and Casey Alexander did before it got to our plussing team, and I couldn't resist making a gag that builds gradually as ridiculous as possible!

I'm excited to share that I've been promoted from Revisionist to STORYBOARD ARTIST! I'm so thankful for all the time and mentorship my directors have invested in me. I'm grateful I get to work with such an amazing crew!

Ah... Amaterasu. Origin of all that is good and mother to us all. ☀️

A fanart piece for the video game Okami. Amaterasu, the white wolf, stands at the ready for battle. Surrounding her is Orochi, the dreaded eight-headed serpent, poised to strike. The only light source in this scene is Amaterasu herself, her godly glow illuminating both herself and Orochi.

Today's the 26th anniversary of SpongeBob!
I didn't have time to throw anything together this year, so here's a drawing from four years ago.
Super thankful for what this show means to me!

An illustration of SpongeBob and friends in the early pitch bible style. I did not leave enough empty space around the border for the characters, so my apologies to anyone viewing this on their great grandma's tv, since Sandy and Mr. Krabs would totally be hidden.

Incredible work! Love your Planktons and how you drew Patrick's vibrations in the phone chair scene!

Happy Bat Appreciation Day!

A bat enjoys a margarita, sitting in the glass while drinking it with a loopy straw. Is the bat small or is the margarita huge? YES.

And here are some select drawings.

Patrick loves chickens and could totally be BFFs with Ed boi Ed.

GrandPat found a spider in Agnes's hair and has graciously offered to remove it.

I've gotten a little behind on Patrick Posting, so here's some stuff from our Thanksgiving special! Jill Talley's acting is incredible, I had fun getting to plus this scene with Squidina.

Thanks so much!
The shared heart is a reference to the SpongeBob episode "Can You Spare a Dime?" where SpongeBob tells Squidward "We're like brothers, only closer." Since Porky and Daffy are friends/brothers in the movie I thought it would be fun to draw them the same way. : )

Stream of consciousness 'tunia doodles, till can't decide on how to draw her, since I usually like to differentiate her features from how I draw Porky... but the tapers are so satisfying and she's adorable either way

Sketchy drawings of Petunia Pig from The Day the Earth Blew Up on an off-white BG. On the left she stands in a more neutral pose, hands clasped and smiling--her build is a little rounder and softer than the pose on the right, which is slightly more dynamic and streamlined as she's taking notes

Got to see "The Day The Earth Blew Up" last night! I loved it. I left the movie feeling super inspired so I couldn't resist doodling some quick sketches for fun.
Go see it if you have the chance! You'll have a great time.

Porky and Daffy are like brothers... only closer...

Some loose and messy sketches of Porky and Daffy from memory.

Some panels from "Movie Stars!" Very humbling to look back at these early boards. I have improved and learned SO MUCH since I penned these nearly two years ago! Very proud of the projector and Cecil's soda belt that I got to design!!
