Extinct Animals

For this summer I decided to do a illustration series of Extinct Animals. I am so intrigued by how familiar and not familiar these animals are. I want to give these extinct animals a breath of new life and make people pay more attention to how lovely each of the animals were. Here are the first three of the series:

Dodo 

Tasmanian Tiger

Great Auk

Obie the Dachshund

Part of my Strange News series which you can view more of on my Behance portfolio. This illustration is based off of a extremely obese wiener dog named Obie. Obie is adorable dog who just ate too much for his own good. Obie ended up loosing the weight and recently had to get a tummy tuck to remove the extra skin that he was carrying around. This Obie before his surgery.

Hemingway Portrait

A while ago, I was commissioned to do a pen portrait of Ernest Hemingway. I am more than pleased on how it turned out. The customer wanted paper with raw edges, so I hand ripped the paper to create a rough look.

Chunky Flamingo

I know I have drawn this flamingo many times but I seem to not be able to stop! This time I played with the line quality, pairing the heaviness of the feathers with the thin linear quality of the eye and beak. I think this is my favorite flamingo I have drawn so far.

Dwight's Fat Behind

What my fat dog looks like from the backside! A quick illustration to capture his ridiculousness.
