Obama?

So below when I say this was a quick sketch I mean it. I didn't look at it for several hours. Coming back to it I realize the right eye needs some work.
This is a quick sketch (about 15 minutes) I did based off Barack Obama's yearbook photo. It's pretty decent as far as quick sketches go. Although I am not including the original photograph here. So if you want to see how close I go to the original you'll have to search it out yourself. It's not hard to find. I also found G.W.'s yearbook photo so maybe I'll do one of him next.

NBP Photoshoping Series

It's a Monday and I'm bored at work. So I started photoshopping for fun. This first piece is copied from a Dr. Martins ad campaign in which dead rockers are wearing doc's in heaven. Here we have Joey Ramone (Seth Miller), Joe Strummer (George Frye), Kurt Cobain (Joe Stratton), & Sid Vicious (Mark Jaynes). Not Blood, Paint is in heaven.
Since they're all ghosts in the first image. I decided to make them ghostbusters in the second.
So if any of you out there have any ideas of what you would like to see NBP dressed up as next let me know and I'll give it my best shot.

Adam & Eve

I was sketching yesterday and decided I wanted to make something that looked like a comic book cover. I've been reading a lot of Batman and R. Crumb. This is inspired by Crumb for sure. I like the idea of a comic about sin, I mean nobody want good clean wholesome fun anymore. If this actually was a comic this would be the first issue. So I figured I would go with the original sin. I like how Adam and Eve look very frisky even though they haven't eaten the fruit yet.
 As you may have guessed I am not a religious person, so this is all just satire to me. I wish instead of the rolling hills I would have made it look more like a garden, but oh well.

Another MJ Tribute

I had a lot of fun working on the first Michael Jackson tribute that I did on Friday. I figured why not make another. So here is my second in a the Michael Jackson tribute series
He has such a great silhouette? All the best characters have great silhouettes.

Everyone Likes To Draw

If you've been reading my blog for 6 months or more you may remember the calender drawings I would post monthly.
Well this is no calender, but a dry erase board. I went to a housewarming party in Harlem. It just happened they had a dry erase board. Some random party goer and myself started drawing on the board. Before to long the entire party had drawn something. As you may remember for the calender posts I'm a sucker for these things. Luckily phones have cameras. So here's the collective artwork of 20 drunk kids in Harlem.

The King Of Pop

I love Michael Jackson, always have. I put this together as a tribute to the greatest artist of our time. I'm gonna miss that guy.
