Pinocchio, Gepetto, and his daughter

Alas, the semester is near an end... and a busy semester it has been!


Here's some more Pinocchio sketches.

Still hashing out some ideas in the story and the designs. I'm glad the
semester is at an end so that I can get back to my personal work!

Warming up

I love making these!
Sometimes I hash out a bunch as a creative exercise to flex my art muscles.

Very much inspired by design oriented artists such as Pablo Picasso, as well as

 mid-century design, and old style children's books... maybe art

deco as well? Who knows haha

Tadpoles, Pinocchio, and Coffee

Some more observation sketches and even some tadpole concept work.

A water color of Pinocchio. I don't think I've nailed his 

design yet, but I'm getting there!!!

And last but not least, my general feelings on coffee

Critique? Questions? Comments?

My dream job! And a painting

MY DREAM JOB

"Hey Rico, we wanna pay you

to draw in your sketchbook all day....

That cool?" 

I cant even begin to explain to you guys how happy drawing makes me...

I never feel more in my element then when I am hunched over my sketchbook.

Here are some observation sketches from a local park.

And here's a painting style test based off one of the 

sketches from above...

Critique? Questions? Comments?

Did you see that? I made a gif!

There's this girl who sits in front of me in
one of my classes... She needs a belt or something.
