Taz in The Hat 2012

Everyone knows Dr. Suess. I was hanging at my sisters house watching a movie and saw a Cat in the Hat book over in the kids play area. Julian saw it and read it to dad. After we were done reading and while watching out movie I decided to make my Taz version. Tried to nail the art style as well.

Its all about the Pirate Booty Savvy

I love the Pirate of the Caribbean movies. Love the Jack Sparrow... excuse me... CAPTAIN.... Captain Jack Sparrow character. So of course there will be a few Taz version of him. Here is one I did while waiting for my sons mother to bring him back to me. Seemed she was 5 hours off. So while hanging out at the pick up location with nothing to do I created this Captain Taz Sparrow with all his booty...... Savvy!

Hanging by a string

Ever since I have been divorced from the mother of my son I have felt that there have been so many things out of my control. She has made decisions that will better her life but in turn that causes me to loose time with my son. Sometimes I just feel like I am hanging there waiting for someone to cut the only support line I have left and just drop.

Angry Birds July 2012

My little man, like everyone else, is all over the angry bird phenomena. We play the levels together. No matter where we are he will always find any angry bird stuff and point it out. One day while playing some of the game I did a quick sketch of an idea I had

Rumpelstiltskin

While watching Shrek for the millionth time with Julian I was inspired to create this little number. Still working on it but you get the idea. Wolfie.....

Macaroni Grill again

Still loving the Macaroni Grill. Cool way to knock out one idea for a Taz piece while I eat. I finish it up later on but a good start. Here is what pasta in my mouth makes me think about.

Ware-Taz

I get alot of inspiration for my Taz images from my son. We were sitting together watching the Curse of The Ware-Rabbit. It is part of the Walach and Grommit cartoons. Well I decided to make a Taz version. This is still very early on. Just dropped in a little color to help me visualize it a bit more.

Quick Sketches March 2012

When I am visiting my son Julian, I sometimes get ideas about Taz drawing I want to do. So I will grab a scarp of paper and get some things down so I can remember my thoughts. I will make final line drawings later on and finally a finished piece at some point. I have realized I have times when I am sure creative or on the ball with Taz ideas so I roll with it and just concentrate on that for a while. There could be days or months that go by before I do another one but I am fine with that. As you can see I have loads to work on mean while.

Taz On Dragon

Another Macaroni Grill creation. I started this while having dinner with my son. We had been watching how to train your dragon earlier. So I had the lines figured out and had started to color it in. I decided to finish it like this. Then I tore the paper around to make it look like clouds. I will mount it on a blue sky and frame it to have it up in my sons room. He loved it.

Joe's Crab Shack

Finally hit the old Joe's Crab Shack. Always seen the place but never stopped in. They have some cool decor in there. Would make some nice pictures. I will remember that. Oh yes so I doodled this guy on a napkin and did a final version of it just this evening.

Prep & Landing

Take a look at the latest addition to the team. Thought it would be cool to draw after seeing the video for the movie many time with my little man.

Got to love food

Usually, when I am drawing Taz, I tend to start with the face. It is a great way to start and helps me figure out what direction to take him. Here is Taz leaping forward to pounce on some food. Watch out.

Watch D.O.G.S. 2012

I found myself at Macaroni Grill again. Trying to think about what I would create during this meal. I was up enjoying time with Julian. Taking him to school and doing all the during the week stuff with him. As well as another Watch Dog volunteer day. So I came up with this. Work in progress.

Seasonal Help 2011

Taz was hoping to do a little volunteer work this holiday season. To see if his help made a difference. He did not think he would be helping out in this way.
