So last night I started sketching. I've got an image I'm really excited about, it portrays the art school graduate as businessperson entering the workforce. I've based the pose on Hermes/Mercury. But to add some humor I've juxtaposed the heroic pose with giant butterfly wings. He'll be emerging from a chrysalis when I complete the concept. Here is the rough character sketch so far:

Childrens Illustration Sketch
In honor of the 100+ degree temperatures we've been having over the last couple of weeks, here is my sketch for "Winter":
I'm pretty happy with it. For the snow being kicked up around the sled, I was going for a mashup between classic hot rod painted flames and traditional Japanese woodblock-print styled water. It's coming off a bit harsh in the sketch but I already have a newly-created fluffy soft texture made up for the snow that I know will soften the effect and hopefully provide an interesting contrast.

Detail Challenge II
Finished the Sons of Anarchy / detail sketch. Definitely has detail. At this point, at least in the sketch, it's barely even recognizable as my style. I'll need to take care in the execution of the final illustration to make sure that my style comes through, but the linework and especially textures should help.
New Homepage Illustration idea
In full swing on the website re-design. Had an idea to do a custom illustration for the home page. Self-assigned theme: "Sam Hill is ready to work for you". Yes, it's a self portrait.
