Halloween Watercolor

These sketches were done in an art journal I had during my my high school years as a teenager.  My photography instructor had us keep a journal and we had to turn in a minimum of 5 pages every week.  The idea was to get your head in your creative side daily.  It was a great exercise, one I should do more often.     I walked on the "darker side" of life during these years and like Ministry's famous song, Halloween was everyday for me.

Siouxsie Sioux

I drew this illustration of Siouxsie Sioux in my notebook while at high school.  I adore the music of Siouxsie and the Banshees and have always looked up to Siouxsie as a role model for her sense of style and strong personality in a male dominated industry.

Christy 2

This illustration is another tribute to one of my early influences,  Patrick Nagel.  I loved the challenge of seeing the world through Patrick's eyes and his style helped me to better understand both composition and anatomy. 

This portrait is one of my favorite models in the 80's and 90's, Christy Turlington.
