Miller's Dark Knight sells for huge money.

I think I swallowed my gum. It only sold for $448,125. And this was during a bad economy.
Imagine if had been good. WOW.

Get tew duh choppa, Arnold Schwarzenegger!

Hey, it's Arnold or Ahnowd, depending on what country you're from. I've rendered Arnold a few times for t-shirt designs, caricatures and cards, but I've never painted him full color. The attached image represents 1/4 of the nearly finished piece, which I hope to share soon.

Brrr! It's cold outside!

Full color image coming soon.

More Sketchbook

Merely to confuse you--by making more than one blog post in one day.

Cool grey copic markers,
with a hint of Pitt pens,
and Prismacolor on sketchbook
stock. What is this?
Oh yeah, 8.5 x 11".

Stanleyart REBOOT--and it feels good. :)

It's taken the better part of a year to regain my creative senses and get back to the drawing board. While I had some seriously dark clouds looming over my head in 2011, I'm happy to say they seem to have passed and I'm now enjoying being back in my studio in a creative environment.

Today's attachments are a few pieces from my sketchbook. The finished versions of these comps will pop up on my website, and I'll make notice when they do.

Some will remain sketches though, so, keep that in mind. :P

Be well-

Steve
