Movie Poster Art: The Village Barbershop

Sometimes, I want to watch a movie just because I like the illustration/design for the movie poster. Sean Farrell created the poster art for this film. I couldn’t find a link to his website. He’s also the co-owner of Bald Guy Greeting Cards.

 

Judah

A new addition was added to the family. We’ve been calling him Judah. We’re currently fostering him. He’s a handful.

 

Something New

I’m feeling guilty for not posting any new drawings lately. I decided to go through my stack of sketch books and find something to post. I found these two observational drawings of people in town. I can’t remember when I drew them. I think they’re from 3 or 4 years ago. The drawings are from 2 different times at the laundromat.

I spotted this women at the Brooklyn Laundromat in Portland. I used to have to walk there and dry my clothes when the dryer in my apartment broke. It was a common occurrence. I don’t miss it.

A different day, this man was waiting for a bus, across the street from the laundromat.

Barry McGee

Still getting unpacked in my new place. Still no time to draw. Here are some visuals by San Francisco artist, Barry McGee.

Been Busy

I want to apologize for not posting anything lately. I’ve been busy preparing and packing for a big move this week. Sadly, I’ll be leaving Portland, Oregon and relocating to San Francisco, California. I’m excited for San Francisco, but I’m really going to miss Portland. It truly is one of the best cities to live.

I won’t be able to post any new artwork, so until I get settled into my new place, I’ll just have to share stuff I like.

Here’s a cool website I stumbled upon called An Exquisite Beast.

Everyday, a new illustration is made following the Exquisite Corpse technique. Do check it out.

Friday Favorites: Nobrow

Visually pleasing books, prints, and illustrations at Nobrow. If only I was in London so I could check out the store.

The Official Rules

Winner Takes It All / We Are The Champions

This Thursday, Dec. 1st, is the rivalry show! Each artist chose a rivalry and created two pieces depicting each rival. The Benjamin Benjamin Gallery will display one of the rivals in their gallery and next door, Gigantic will display the other side of the rivalry. Should be a fun show.

I chose to illustrate The Greasers and The Socs from the book/film The Outsiders.

The show starts at 5 pm and ends at 8 pm. Details here.
