“Pixel Galaxy” & “Web City” - My first website (worth mentioning) I started around 1998 or 1999 when I was around 13 or 14. It was developed totally with free/basic software like Netscape Composer, Adobe PageMill and the AppleWorks paint application (long before I used Photoshop for the first time).
It started originally as just “Web City” but I got a little ahead of myself and started expanding to space before I had finished fleshing-out the city part. I also got my hands on a lite version of ‘Painter’ so the graphics style changes quite a bit before I abandoned development.
Visit the archived website. It’s mostly awful except for some of my illustrations. It’s a fun time capsule from my childhood and a more primitive internet.
Q:Hello! This may seem a bit weird but I was wondering if you could help me at all, I am doing an art project in school on robots. I'm finding it quite hard to find pictures and other samples of robot art. Do you know of any sites, artists, or pictures I could use? I noticed you post some of that type of thing! I thought it was worth a shot!
Hello. You could try searching wallbase.cc for “Robot”. You might also try searching Flickr, I belong to a robot art group.
An artist I like David Lanham has done a few robots. I’ve also got a handful of robot illustrations on my website.
Make sure you credit anyone if you use their art.
Hope that helps. Thanks for the message!
Wacom Inkling Video Review.
Looks as good as advertised… It’s still on my wish list.
Update to my latest digital painting: I’ve added a new dark version of the iPhone wallpaper. Make sure you checkout the full version too if you haven’t yet.

Wacom Inkling +Added to Wish-List!
A new rough “pen doodle” I did using SketchBook Pro on Mac with my Wacom tablet. Started the sketch way at the beginning of the year and pulled it out last night. It’s as finished as I think I want to make it.
This should be a prelude to what is to come from me in the near future… I had been neglecting to draw for too long and want to make it a regular thing again.
So far I really like SketchBook Pro on Mac. It’s definitely more drawing/painting friendly than Photoshop. I also like the ability to save in PSD format by default so Photoshop touch-ups and effects can easily be done with full layer support.
Abraham Lincoln 3D:
Done by my friend @Hobotix (pictured) at the local children’s museum yesterday (it’s kinda random why we were there). I made/shot the “3D” image.
