Taken By The Sea



Just a mermaid picture that took FOREVER! I don't have a tablet yet, so everything you see here is done by hand with a computer mouse on Photoshop. It really is not a fun process, but I love seeing everything come together!

Mermaid



Just a mermaid sketch I did. I have been reading up on a few drawing books (something I haven't done in a long time. It was nice to do something a little different.

Dancing with Da Phantom

Just another doodle! Me dancing with the Phantom of the Opera! I used Photoshop to color it and shade it. Aw! Look! We are blushing! Perfect couple! :D

Melanie


Hey again! Okay, let me tell you the story behind this picture.
My mom pitched me a REALLY good idea for a comic (which I am now working on with her help). It's about me and my movie heros. Only I can see and hear them and they never leave me alone. While you think it would be cool, they sometimes irritate and annoy me. But I love them :D
So, as they are in my head and only I can hear and see them, you can see all the funny possibilities. The characters that follow me around are Erik (from the Phantom of the Opera), Jareth (from Labrynith), Spock (from Star Trek), and Snape (from Harry Potter).
So now to the picture. This is what I will look like in the comic, pretty cute huh? I enjoyed doing it. It was really fun! Hope you enjoy and um, hope it looks like me!

Dementor



Just another sketch. Don't you hate it when you draw something REALLY good, but on lined paper at school? Ug! I hate that! That is why you can see blue lines going through the drawing. Sorry :P Anyway, this is just my sketch of a Dementor that I did during Health class. My brother (Benjamin) said that this new version of the Dementors, looked like they were put in the dryer too long so their clothes shrunk onto them. Haha, my brother gets the funniest ideas, which proves we are deffiently related.

Wardrobe Malfunction :P

Hey everyone! Welcome back! Here is my latest work. I know what you are thinking, "I ssooo don' get it." Don't worry. I have an account on deviantart.com and it was a contest where we had to take the characters from the comic (the comic that the contest was for) and switch their wardrobes around. The characters are as follows: Me (the artist that ruined the characters lives :) Erik (The phantom of the Opera) dressed in Jareth (the Goblin Kings) clothes, Jarvice (from LM) dressed in Sweeny Todd's outfit and James Norrington (Pirates of the Carribean) in Jarvice's clothes. Along with Sweeny Todd dressed in the Phantom's Gothic drag. Hope it wins and hope you like it!

Mice to Meet You!


Hello again! Here is my lastest work. Just a few characters floating around in the back of my mind. I tried a little Disney style and made them mice, but French Mice! Haw-haw-haw (bad imitation of a french laugh). Anyway, the boy is named Jean-Paul and the girl is Elodie. The story (just another "back-of-my-mind" thing) takes place in France during the Revolution. The story is told through a mouses' point of view. I know, I know, COMPLETELY overdone, but it was some fun practice. It took about two weeks (because I don't have a tablet yet so it takes longer by mouse, haha! funny) Hope you enjoy!

"Monsters Inc" Me!


Wow, it really has been a long time hasen't it! Well, this latest drawing is of me in Moster's Inc form. I always wanted to know what I would look like in that world. I suppose no one could answer that question but me, so I drew what I thought I might look like? Any resemblence?

Tulio


Remeber this guy? I finally got onto Photoshop and I got to make him look all pretty! I named him Tulio :) I know he looks like Flynn Rider but he's not. I drew this before the movie trailers ever came out, cross my heart.

Not So Grimm

Not so Grimm is he? A happy Grimm Reaper, cause I'm weird like that :)

Etudiants du Masque


Hey Everyone! It has been a while since I posted anything, but I want to get back into the habit. This is based off of me and my two friends. The one on the far left is Rose (based off Kristen Matthews), the one on the far right is Ronny (based off of Casey Hansen) and the middle is me! The bottom one is what it looked like before I colored it in on the computer. This was my first time using Photoshop and I love it! Its actually the cover of a comic that I have in mind. The next thing I need it a tablet which will make it easier to color them in. Tell me what you think!

Out of Charatcer


Okay, so I took a very big leap and decided to try and make a web comic. I put it on deviantart.com first and so far I have a person who likes it. This is a tease for it and it was my first time really coloring on the computer. It's fun! Anyway, so the story is about killed of characters from different books and where they go after wards. Enjoy!

Villager


This girl is a punk, or whatever a punk was back in the olden days. I'll ask my grandpa what they were called. Anyway, she might be a punk, but she is one that means well. That smile says that she is hiding something, but more likely a surprise party in the barn or a prepared meal without being asked. I gave her short hair and put it in a handkerchief so she looked like she grew up somewhere were you can't really have long hair. A farm or something like that. Her sweater is made out of a scratchy material which was clean when I imagined it. Yet another character I met in a dream.

Faerie or Alien?

In my opinion, this character in a mix of something from "Avatar" and "Atlantis". The fact that she has no eye pupils makes it look really freaky in a cool way. I made her skin dark because I felt that it went better with the form of hair style. She could be a lot of things. A spirit a faerie. By brother opted for an alien, but I voted against that one. Don't ask me what the two dots on her forehead are because I really don't know. I thought they were just meant to be there. It's like an alien asking, "Why do you humans have noses?" It's just a question that really doesn't have an answer.

Sapphira


You can stop your wolf-whistling, I know she looks good! You can tell I'm not very modest. In person I am, but in writing, no way! This is yet another character I met in a dream. "Met" is a bit on an understatement. I was her actually. Her hair is a dirty blond and has blue eyes. I was a gypsy in the story "The Hunch Back of Notre Dame", the Disney version. I was called the albino Gypsy because usually, gypsies are dark haired and dark eyed. Frollo was being creepy in my dream to I willed myself to wake up. What can you expect from a creepy Disney villain who has no self control? Yeesh! Anyway, I like the graceful look I gave her. I named her 'Sapphira' which means sapphire in the Gypsy language. Funny, considering the other character in the movie was named Ezmerelda, which means emerald. It just goes to show ya, the pretty girls in Disney movies get the pretty names.

Hope


I found a model picture in a hair magazine and I wanted to try it out. I think she turned out nice. Of course the real picture looked WAY better, but this was a demo of what I could do. Not one of my favorites but I seem to lean more towards the cartoon drawings. But it is always good to try new things.

Lily

I really like this character. She is down to earth. When I look at her face, I can tell she isn't wearing any make-up. I based this character around Lily Evans from Harry Potter to tell you the truth. Imagine her with red hair and green eyes and pale skin. Pretty right? She has a look of innocence and I think she is a really reliable person. Simple, clean and I think that she would be some where in her teens, older teens anyway,

Seaside Thinking



I know, this is another drawing in orange, but it was all that I had. Believe it or not, I was drawing this while I was at Pixar!!!!! I was actually at the place that I want to work! I was eating in their cafe! It was so amazing! Naturally, the place inspired me and I drew this girl. You will notice I went back to the Cinderellaish dress. I tend to go to that when I feel like my girl characters are out and about. I am very proud of the hand in the drawing. Not a weird thing to be proud of. It doesn't look too big or too small and it looks really nice! Not to mention I didn't put the thumb on the wrong side of the hand this time! I imagined her sitting on the rocks by the beach, looking out at the ocean. Not looking for something, but thinking about something. I notice that I usually make my characters think in their state of being. I think she looks pensive and sol em. But I think I did push her head too far out. At least it's still on her neck!

Rick Castle


If any of you have ever seen the show "Castle" then I have a treat for you! I was watching it and I pulled out my sketch book and drew Rick Castle. He is so awesome! I will let you decide whether or not he looks like the real thing.

Model Milkmaid

We can all agree that this girl looks like a milkmaid, her clothes make her look like it anyway. But the face that I drew suggests other wise. More like a model but I think her eyes says that she isn't really up for that life. This picture goes to all those pretty faced girls who are treated like they are only good for looking at. This gal is a hard worker. The only thing I really have to say about my picture that I can criticize myself on is that I made the neck a little bit too long. Oh well! Life's too short.
