Stages of Creating an Art Card
So for the next few weeks I'm offering custom art cards for a really cheap price. You can choose to have the card drawn in pencil, or inked, or colored with copic markers. Here are three photos of a card I recently finished of Peg Bundy from Married with Children. I've posted a photo of the penciled, inked, and colored versions of the card. Follow the link at the bottom of the post to order your own custom art card!

Free Portrait? Why not?!
If anyone is interested in me illustrating a portrait of themselves or someone you know, then let me know. I will illustrate your mugshot for free and send you a digital copy of the file, but the catch is that you cannot sell it or use it for any monetary purposes. However, you can absolutely use it as a profile photo, print it off and hang it on your wall, or use it as a Halloween mask if you so desire.
Why am I doing this? Because I enjoy illustrating portraits and you can never have enough reference material. I would also use the illustration for advertising purposes, perhaps post the original for sale, and maybe even use your mug for reference material when drawing comics.
So again, if you liked my Takei and other portraits, then shoot me an e-mail and I will draw your mug for free -m2010stewart@gmail.com.

George Takei Portrait: It's OK to be Takei!
I recently drew a portrait of George Takei that I used for my submission to his logo contest: It's OK to be Takei. This inked portrait was scanned and manipulated in Adobe Illustrator to add text and a curved rainbow, which I was rushed to finish. In hindsight the rainbow could be much smoother and I forgot to include two colors. Oh well, I still like the concept and am happy with the portrait.

Aliens Illustration (for sale)
Illustrated with brush and india ink and grey marker on 9x12 bristol paper, with roughly 1" border around drawing. Price includes shipping within mainland United States and Canada only. Contact me for international rates.
One of my favorite movies of all time is Aliens. It is one of James Cameron's best films and is a rare example of a sequel being on par in quality with its predecessor. I loved the concept of the space marines and the expanded myth of the Alien creatures. It was terrific! So here I took a comic book style to illustrating an Alien and gave it a gorilla-like stance with it knuckle walking and having hunched shoulders. I think this makes it a bit more unique and a bit more of a striking illustration to have hanging on your wall!

Creature of the Black Lagoon Illustration (for sale)
Illustrated with brush and india ink on 9x12 bristol paper, with roughly 1" border around drawing. Price includes shipping within mainland United States and Canada only. Contact me for international rates.
I fondly remember watching classic horror movies as a child. I loved them so much I had models of many of the more famous creatures including the lagoon creature. In this illustration, I was inspired of course by the classic movies, but also by the EC comic covers of the 1950's and the artistic style of John Romita sr. This illustration really pops and would look great on anyone's wall!
