Calgary Expo. Illustration

I was honored to be asked to be a participant in the Calgary Expo at the end of April 2009 in beautiful downtown Canada. I was asked to submit a piece of artwork that will be auctioned off for charity to benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Calgary on the last day of the show. This was my submission.

New Class - LAAFA

Hey Guys,

I will be teaching a NEW class at the Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Arts (LAAFA) in Van Nuys, Ca. This is a nice opportunity to open up the class and my teachings to the public. The other class I teach at the moment is solely for the Walt Disney employees only. So this is a nice way to let people have access to the teachings of the studios that is open to anyone interested as well as the general public. I will be instructing on Sundays, which was a request that some of my students asked for due to the work week being too hectic. It's a trial run, but if anyone is interested you can contact LAAFA @ 818.708.9232.

http://www.laafa.org/ - (It is listed under the "Sessions" section on the right).

If you are interested, just tell them I sent you over and I am sure they will be nice enough to fill you in on the details and give you the packet of information I supplied them with.


Best,

Pastel Gesture Drawing Sketches

These series of sketches were done as a demo in the Walt Disney Class I teach focused on experimentation with different mediums - in this case experimenting with Pastels as an aide to help add more mood and contrast to costumed gesture drawings and/or development work.

[I will be selling these and many of my originals at my book signing that is being narrowed down to three places at the moment. I will keep everyone informed as soon as I know the final dates and venue(s).]
