Gym Class Heroes- Travis McCoy.




Some fan art of one of my favorite band vocalists, Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes. Man, Gym class heroes has helped me in times of inspirational droughts with their unique and flashy sounds. Big ups to Travis and Gym Class Heroes.

New Stuff.






As promised Ive got some new art for you all to see. These two pics were colored straight outta my sketchbook using my handy iphone camera and Photoshop CS2. Man, I miss drawing all day long.Im gonna start coloring some older pics ive done in my sketchbook and throw them up on the blog so be on the look out for those surfacing soon.

Im also going to start doing something a bit new. Im going to be doing a sketch a day in my sketchbook. Im going to be working on an artbook and want more up to date material so im going to be going in on the sketches starting tonight.

Im pretty exited. And for those of you who dont know, a "artbook" or "art bible" is a portfolio style collection of an artists work compiled together in a purchasable soft or hardcover publication for art lovers to buy and collect. Theres a handful of good sites out there that let you submit your images and organize your own books, but for my first artbook, i think ill be using lulu.com. Seeing as it takes along time to generate lots of material, I suppose Ill be wrapping my final for the book around next year some time.So if you all are interested in picking up a copy, its gonna be a while before its available....

Because most of my "one sketch a day" drawings will be going in my artbook, im not going to be submitting the sketches to any sites. There will still be new illustrations but just know the "bulk" of my work is going to be kept under wraps until my book is finalized.


Thanks for everyone out there whose been keeping up with me and supporting me and my art. More Illness is always coming your way.

See ya next time.

This is a re-up of my previous "b-boy" sketch that I did a couple pages ago...This pic is actually pretty old, im just a bit late submitting it to my blog. Its been a minute since I was able to throw a illustration  up on here. Ive been animating constantly for my school art test and side projects. Maaan,when I picked up my sketchbook a few days ago it felt like breathing again for the first time... Dont get me wrong, i love my animation, but its good to go back to my roots sometimes ya know? 


I hope you all enjoy the Re-Up.

Bugsy has an idea. (blocking1) from Tuscanny Polk on Vimeo.


This is the lip sync portion of my animation art test. Just in the blocking stages right now. The finished version should be up soon.

Hope you all enjoy.

an oldie.




An oder animation that I did using the "Lowman" rig character. Its pretty snappy and im sure ide be able to fix that now... I might pick this one back up and fix it if I ever get the time... or I might just start anew and work on another walk. Either way I think my next few animations will defiantly be with the Lowman character. I had alot of fun animating Lowman... I dont know what it is, but I think his elongated look attracts me to his character. I dig it.


hope you all enjoy.

Bugsy jump: take 2


i got some critiques and offset the arms and legs a bit in this updated animation. when Bugsy jumps his feet land onto the platform at different times, which gives his landing a more natural look. i also gave him more hang-time at the climax of his arc and made his landing a bit faster.

thanks to all those who gave me great critiques on this project.
more critiques are always welcome.

THIS WAS A CRAZY WEEKEND - gotta get back to work.

hope you all enjoy.
