Yellow Sweater

I was doing a sample demo for a menswear student at FIT last Thursday, and I left teh sketch on my school desktop. I thought I'd bring it home and post it for last Thursday retroactively, but I ended up toying with it and making something newer. So, voila!

Trousers Top Too

Gonna see if a better croquis will serve the design more.

Trousers Top 2

That arm looked weird so I adjusted it.

Trousers Top

I had an idea (since I'm still teaching and teaching trouser flats) to do a top that looks like the top of a pair of pleated pants. The drawing came together rather quickly, although I'm not fond of my finishes so will have to retool asap.

Black Cat Man 5

I honestly thought this could first be a Halloween post, then I figured I could always do a Childeless Cat Lad post, then I thought it could be something of a victory post after the elections...but alas, twas not to be any of those. And here he is, almost finished, but with nowhere to be published.

Illustrator Doodles

Still in shock, but trying not to think about it. It's so hard to process, I don't even want to write about it. But I can draw and escape. Life is still going on...

I did some experiments in Illustrator linework, and I'm just gonna post this. I'm too forlorn to do anything even remotely involved.

Aftermath (Black Cat Man 4)

Hold on to your cats and loved ones, the unthinkable has happened. It's a sad day in the US for me and many like me.

Slider Brush Face 2

I experimented a bit with adding Photoshop patterns and I think it looks rather fun, akin to the stuff Cecilia Carlstedt is doing albeit still rawer and more amateur in this style.

Vote 2024

I had made a Vote drawing back in 2020 and instead of uploading my new Childess Cat Lad nude I'd been working on, I thought it best to post a Vote drawing again. I was going to just do a Flashback post and repost the older one, but in the end I couldn't leave well enough alone and had to tinker with the drawing until it was completely different...only Michael J Hildebrandt's Vote design is the same at this point! Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.

Slider Brush Face

I needed a break so I experimented with teh slider brush a bit to see if I can change things up. It's fun, and not bad...

Story Pose 2

Added a few more details to her outfit as well as cleaning up the form more, but still haven't the wherewithal to finish this one yet...I don't even know what it should look like finished!

Black Cat Man 3

I'm really not satisfied with the body—it's a bit hard to figure out how to angle his arms to accommodate a cat...which I am trying to imagine as a form but decided it was best to suggest one as a mass than figure out all its anatomy as well!
