Pirates Day

I spent some time, a few months ago, doing some black & white sketches of some of the scenes and characters from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.  Here are a few of them.

Toy Story Day

Aaaaahhhhh

Today’s post is a collection of all the Toy Story characters that I have worked on.  All of them, except the Little Green Man are pencil and watercolor paint.  The LGM is ink and watercolor.

I kind of missed the boat on when the first Toy Story movie came out.  I didn’t really see it until the first dvd collection came out.  It was an amazing set with tons of behind the scenes features.  After that I was really hooked on Pixar movies.  While the first movie is good, I like part 2 and 3 more.  It’s one of those rare times where I enjoy the sequels more then the original.

Art Drop 2

Hitching A Ride

Day two, and here is some more art that was created recently and shown at the first convention I have shown at.  First up is a drawing of the Hitch Hiking Ghosts who are trying to find their way out of Disney’s Haunted Mansion.  It is a marker and ink drawing.  And this is a piece that sold at the show.

This is a color version of the piece that I did.

Best Friends

Muppets are and have always been important to me.  The photo this is based on is just perfect.  It is a 5″x7″ watercolor and ink piece and is for sale for $20.

Aaaaahhhhh

Everybody’s Got A Laughin’ Place

Everybody’s Got A Laughin’ Place

Everybody’s got a laughin’ place
This is a painting of the final scene of the ride, Splash Mountain. It features the largest animatronic(the boat, which rocks back and forth) and a bunch of animatronic characters from the America Sings attraction. It is a oil, ink and watercolor painting.
This is for sale and will be on Etsy soon.

Splash Mountain is one of the rides that I love going on but will sometimes have to skip.  It’s always a last second judgement call on if I’m willing to walk around the park with wet pants and shoes.  But, the theming and ride itself is so great!

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

9″x12″ watercolor painting

It’s the start of a new year and I realize that the past 2 months have not been very productive for me.  I’m in the middle of a lack of inspiration funk.  This is one the few things that I have finished in a while.  The painting is of some of the attractions and scenery from Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park.  For Christmas I was given the book Secret Stories of Walt Disney World by Jim Korkis, and after finishing it, I was inspired to do some Disney themed art.  This is a fun book that is filled with 2 page stories all about different subjects that deal with Walt Disney World’s theme parks, resorts, employees and anything remotely Disney related in the Florida area.  I first heard about Jim Korkis from podcasts that he has been on and his knowledge of Disney is second to none.  In fact, he has several books out about Disney, two more that I have are, The Vault of Walt, which has 4 volumes (of which I have the first 2).  They are also fun and quick reads.  Lots of fun and interesting stories are in these that any Disney theme park fan will enjoy reading about.

As I was reading the book I decided that I wanted to do something that was related to the stories I had read in the book and I decided that would be from the Animal Kingdom section.  So, this painting has the Yeti and the Everest mountain from the Expedition Everest ride, a piece of the dinosaur that stands above the sign for Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures store and at the bottom is the Tree of Life with an elephant sculpture.

I have another drawing to post later this week that I forgot to post a few months ago.  Hopefully I can jump start some more artwork soon.
