🎨 Creative Compulsion 🎨 pattern coloring book- First glance and 4 free DIY print & color sheets!

After a few months of working on geometric and repeating patterns, Creative Compulsion is complete! Its a little different than the Heavy Heart mandala books, but just as intricate - if not more. Its finally  available on Amazon , and I'm so happy to share it with everyone :-) As far as specs go its 8x10 inches with a glossy cover. I wanted to go with a matte finish again but for some reason the selection kept getting kicked back to glossy - I think it may have something to do with the trim size, but I can't say for sure. Creative Compulsion - A Coloring Book of Offbeat Motifs Each of the 35 pattern pages are printed on a single sheet, meaning even if you do have bleed through due to markers or pens, it won't ruin a design on the other side. And even though I feel the paper is a good thickness and  quality I still recommend using a scrap piece of paper to protect from bleed, especially for markers. There is also a blank "practice page" in the bac...

Portrait drawings 7/17/13

Well its been an eventful past month or so getting settled in at Colorworks. Ive gotten to spend time with my dad and sister, see some old friends, do some tattoos and be a pain in the ass to Tex :-) I am gonna do a watercolor flash sheet soon, ( I have the designs drawn out and everything) I am really trying to get this drawing pad filled up. Its got 50 sheets, and I'm 13 pages in. I would like to do some portraits tattoos eventually, but there are so many bad portrait tattoos out there, I DO NOT wanna be "that guy". So, practice it shall be.  I really need to paint a few of these, and maybe do a few in color (not crazy about color tattoo portraits ...but on paper) to expand my brain a little. So here's a wolf that I did. Gonna do more animals, they are a much bigger challenge than faces. This one took at least a week. Have you ever seen me angry? Technically this can be classified under "self portrait" Mr Schrute. Not super crazy about how...

Cool title huh? Here are two completed portraits I am uploading. I think I am averaging one a week, or at least it feels that way. I am working on my first female portrait and once I finish her I'm thinking if doing one more (i already have the lady in mind) or*** drawing an animal like my dog or a wolf or something hairy or*** paint a sheet of tattoo flash of bugs. I miss the instant gratification of painting flash, but drawing portraits doesn't hurt my hand as much. So, its a toss up. Maybe I can keep a portrait going and work on the sheet during the same week. Less thinking...more doing. So here is the completed Swan from The Warriors (why in the fuck Hollywood feels the need to remake this movie is beyond me...I will NOT even acknowledge a remake...stick with the O.G.) Then there's Clint. Mr Eastwood if you please. From one of the Dollars movies. And then Westley from the Princess Bride <3 sigh. Ok . Cary Ewles if you prefer but I prefer Westley or The Man in B...
