Warrior Remix!



I didn't really like the way the Warrior pic came out so I thought I'd do a Diddy and Remix it. I added some armor and added a top and the cool fantasy like sword.

Leroy rockWELL LIVE!

Okay. I'm curator and creative director at Seven* Studioz, A local hip-hop, Jazz, poetry, reggae, art hang out. When I had may art show like Feb. 2006, I did live demo with my ibook and wacom Intuos3. I have only did a live demo like probably twice since then (LAZY.) So now every other Thursday @ Jazzoetry night, I will work on my paintings live for the audience to enjoy. The band would play, the poets will spit, the singers will sing and I will draw, doodle or paint. This is my second one since the last Thursday. I'm always beat the day after at work because we start at like 10:30 and sometimes doesn't end until 2 p.m. So two times a month is all i can take (I'm grumpy in the morning.) People love it and I get complements and sometimes freelance gigs from these. Got 2 freelance gigs last night.

So Projector + DVI to S-Video + Mac Book Pro + Intuos3 + Leroy rockWELL x Awesome = Good show for the people. GET YOUR ART OUT THERE!


This to show you it's a Mac buddy.

Full shot.


Leroy rockWELL Stand up act starting in 2017.. when he's is actually funny.. (modest mouse video in the background.)

Other Heroes Art Show

Other Heros Art show, that is coming up at Jackson State University (my alma matar) My friend John Jennings and Damian Duffy put together with some of the most talented Afro American Artist. I happen to be in it too. (HAZZAH) SBA member Dawud is also in the show and book. Sorry I would have loved you guys to flex your stuff but the deadline passed after I joined. They are trying to make it be a Traveling show. Who knows maybe it will be a second call for entry when it shows elsewhere. I'll keep an ear to the streets. I'll post my stuff I entered after the opening.

Warriors


I saw 300 this past weekend and visually the movie left an impression. Kind of like when I go to a museum when I come away having learned something about art or inspired in some way. Anyway here's my contribution to the warrior theme. I saved this one at 300 dpi.....Get it? 300? Get it? No? ok...

Warriorz




These are old first off I'll try to do something new as well. The top is of Conan an the second is take on Sergio Aragones's Goro. I 'll try my best to get these cleaned and reposted ASAP. Hope everyone's week is smooth as a baby's behind ..... Out like a light L
Added these Fem Barbarians like I was asked I'll have it all cleaned by next week would have done it sooner but I need to put together a sample portfolio for a job interview. I hope I get the gig I sure could use the work and LOOT right now hope everyone has a great weekend

Warrior Art Jam: Nzinga


I'm back again to bring back an Art jam. Mcgee and I were talking about the movie 300 when an idea for 300 fanart transformed into just doing Warriors or Conquerors. So I want you allstars to come with your own Warrior or Conqueror. GAUNTLET THROWN! THIS IS SKETCHBOOKA!!! TONIGHT WE DRAW IN HELL!

My Warrior is Queen Nzinga.
She became renowned for the guerilla tactics she employed for resisting the technologically superior Portugese army. She was a brilliant strategist and, although past sixty, led her warriors herself.

Never surrendering, she died on December 17, 1663.

Artgyrls sketch


Thanks to Artgryl for doing the drawing for this one. I wanted to do more to it but time is short. Hope I did her some justice.

Test..............



Special thanks goes out to Mr Magoo for inviting me back to the allstars I really appreciate the thought. I'll try my best to keep up with the kiiler work that's being done .
I was playing around with this new program Toon Boom and I just recently had to start designing with it for a show Called Grossology don't know if anyone has heard of it as yet, very kool stuff and designs. Anyways I'm no longer on the show but decided to keep up with the designing and drawing in the program so I did these quick test using the brush tool. Well I hope everyone has been kool as the breeze and work has kept you all busy but not too busy stay fresh one and all.

Collaboration artwork with Rockwell


This is a drawing I did a while back that Leroy Rockwell did a great job on the colors. I haven't had too many people color my art before so I thought this was a great different look for my stuff. Maybe I'll post the pencils so if anyone else wants to give it a try its cool with me. Just to see all the different takes on the same drawing? What do you guys think?

Tuesday, March 06, 2007

Sadly, I haven't been drawing much lately. I just got a new full-time job at a printing company. I'm on my second week there.

Anyway, here's some stuff I did while I was wasting away, wondering if I'd ever be employed after college. . .

sketch from a reference

Enjoy.

FIRESTORM.

L did one issue of a comic called Firestorm for DC and this ia a sketch l did for the editor for fun. l used a few tricks like a white-out pen and a maker brush...l think l spent about 10 minutes doing this one. l would classify this as a convention skecth....l'll show more sketches from con's. peace.

l love it here.

Another MASsive Attack!!!

Turns out makin 1 website desktop for a friend, ended up in me making 2 more just for personal decoration. Ida put more colors up that's been published but some others handled coloring duties on that and the work wouldn't be 100% MAS now would it ;). Had to share tho. PEACE!!!
