Captain America at Dawn

I think Captain America is my favorite Marvel Character. At first, I thought the chain mail armor was lame, but if you consider its weight, I think the added momentum would be nasty. He'd be like a human cannonball. Never you mind that parachute costume in the movie. This guy's heavy. Smash yo face. Bust yo teef.

Shel Silverstein Redesign

This is a redo of a Shel Silverstein image called Hairy Jazz. I did this for a friend that wanted it as a tattoo. The original really wouldn't translate, so he asked if I'd change it up, and mix it with my style. I think that means, in my case, make it messier with bigger blacks. This weird mouth full of cannons and soldiers is going to be at the top of his arm, with this friendly little guys marching up his arm.

HAIRY JAZZ!!!

Shel Silverstein is pretty amazing all around. He is the best type of creative genius- flying between mediums as an author, musician, poet, and illustrator; at the same time so inspiring because he makes it all look so effortless. You can read his bio, and look at his work for the kids.
