Little Robin Redbreast

Just some of the first drawings of Robin, my little can-do rabble rouser, getting ready to shake up the status quo and make a play to move from being a footnote in folk legend to a bona fide trickster in the big leagues!

Peeping Yeti

80 oculusyeti

I like drawing the Yeti’s eye.  I spent a lot of time drawing Orangutangs and Gorillas to be able to better draw the Yeti’s gestures.  I fell in love with drawing their eyes and am constantly trying to get that to translate to my drawings of the Yeti in Wiltworthy.

Temple Guardians

Looking for inspiration for some character design, I spent some time working from photos of guardian statues from Indonesia and Sri Lanka. I think this one is smiling a little more than some of the statues he is based upon. The more I have sketched them, the more they are endeared to me. Their expressions often seem caught halfway between a daunting glare and a big smile. I can see them breaking face and saying, “I’m just messing with you, don’t be so uptight!”

Woodsman before Woodsy

28 woodsman

One of the earlier drawings of the woodsman.  He’s quite a bit more strapping here than he would eventually end up.  As he started to actually fit into the story it became clear that there was no real place for so much swagger.
