Webisode: One (Part One), Blocking in the Portrait

My first Webisode is finally here! It's taken a while since my preview earlier this year to get setup for this series. We moved recently and I had to settle into a new studio. Now that I'm up and running, I expect to do these on a fairly regular basis. It was a lot of fun and a learning experience to produce this. Please pass this on to anyone who might be interested. Thanks!

You know you're in trouble when...

...your town is mentioned on the national news: record breaking rain and flooding, including my studio. Fortunately I was able to frantically ferry out all of my paintings and most valuables. It could have been a lot worse so despite losing a week of work to cleaning up I'm grateful for not losing more. It's a shame that I wasn't currently working on one of my whaling paintings or I could have passed the whole thing off as an elaborate setup.

Mild disaster aside, here are a couple drawings that were done for some of the paintings currently rotating on my easel.
