The Hero Returns (2007)

This is one of the pieces I drew for the Glico Portfolio. I don't really know where the idea came from, but the thought of a battle-worn Teddy Bear bringing back his kingdom's sacred sewing kit was stuck in my mind and wouldn't let go. In the near future, I want to color this bad boy.

Introducing Tom Henderson (2007)

I was inspired to draw this panda when I saw many of the subway train posters that warn against having your hands getting trapped in between the closing doors. Originally created for ECC Web School (where our booths/cubicles have sliding doors) It inspired me to do a lot more. A few are forthcoming. Here are the rest:

Comic Pages (2005)

Here are some comic pages that I drew in 2005, before leaving for Japan.

Pencil, Ink (Pen and Brush), Charcoal, Digital Painting.

Plush Teh'di (2002)

The Plush Teh'di shirt is also a simpler design. I gave it a squared-off boat neck, the back collar being deeper than the front. I allowed the sleeves to come off-shoulder and made the sleeves a little long, coming to an end at the elbow.

The Bullet Rah'bet (2002)

The Bullet Rah'bet shirt is a lot simpler than it's sister designs. I wanted to go a little more punk with it, removing the sleeves, and increasing the armhole size to reach the waist. I opened up the neck as well and shortened the overall length of the shirt, but not by much.

See the SKETCH.

Idol Nerss (2002)

The Idol Nerss shirt's cut at the shoulders in order the show them off. I also gave the T-shirt a couple darts in order to create a better, cleaner shape along the bustline.

See the SKETCH.

The Razor Keh't (2002)

The Razor Keh't shirt is cut at the waist and modified with garter straps to allow the attachment of another skirt or accessories for flair. Underneath the shirt and skirt, suspenders hold up replaceable pant legs that are held low to the ground.

See the SKETCHES.

Sophisticated Bahm (2002)

The Sophisticated Bah'm shirt is a tube-top with a low back and a strap that wraps around too the back. On
the straps, snap fasteners have been place to allow accessory pieces, such as the tight sleaves with the buttoned cuff.
