Quick gesture drawings with the dreaded Sharpie and the magnificent Stacy Walker...

Each year, DreamWorks has its own internal "Con" for employees to showcase, share, and sell their personal work. I created the artwork and poster for this year's Dream-Con. We chose an Oktoberfest theme, so I transformed the campus into a German village...

Zorro rode into town for our lunchtime drawing session...

He peered down protectively on our humble studio,

then lept into action when a fierce tater-tot dispute erupted in the comissary.

After quelling the uprising, he contemplated the pros and cons of a tater-totless existence. Hash browns cause much less trouble, he thought.

Sharpie, 5 minutes apiece



Today's lunchtime drawings. The pencil and I were barely on speaking terms, but the model was terrific.

3 to 5 min poses.

More sketches from the lunchtime drawing sessions at work. Really fun model.

3 to 5 min. poses.

Sharpie Hell

Still struggling to make magic with the Sharpie. These are from two different sessions, both with Dave P.

1 to 3 min. poses.

2- and 5-min poses.

Samurai theme for another recent gesture drawing session...
