Shebop and Rocksexy, my piece for Gag Me With a Toon 5

I've had the idea to do a female Bebop and Rocksteady for a long time and when I got invited to be a part of the Gag Me With a Toon 5 show at WWA gallery (currently on exhibit) I thought it a perfect time to do the piece, so here it is! you can see the full version plus multiple angles on my blog HERE

Character Illustration Class



Hey everyone, I'm super excited to be teaching a class over at skillshare.com, starting May 29th, called "Character Illustration: From Concept to Final Artwork." In the class I'll be taking you through my process of illustrating a pirate character. I'll go over concepts, sketches, rendering in Illustrator and Photoshop, and even talk a little bit about color adjustments and the use of textures. The class will be up indefinitely, so you can do it at your own pace.

Autumn Society friends, use promo code AUTUMN to get 15% off when you enroll.

Back by popular demand is my Suntory Time print. This is a second edition run of 30. It measures 17" x 12". It is a hand pulled, three color print with the orange and brown inverted from the original design. The original was done for the Bill Murray Tribute Show at g1988 back in 2011. People seemed to like it and still ask if I have any more (long since sold out) so I figured I'd print a few more to help pay for my upcoming wedding.

Un-Nerving Pencil!

I have done many small cartoons/illustrations for print before, but never have I been given  a full two page spread to illustrate, until recently.This story, written by Jess Bergman, tells the tale of Harriet Cole. Harriet was a maid/washwoman in the late 1800's who donated her body to science. Dr. Rufus Weaver was, using her donated corpse, able to accurately separate her nervous system from the rest of her, for the first time ever. Back then it was a scientific miracle. These days, it is still on display, but is mostly seen as a creepy thing in a case. 

A small portion of the comic was separated (much like her nervous system...ehhh folks?)  for the cover.

MARCH is for MINDBLASTS!

Hey ASOP peoples, long time no see...

It seems like I've been way out of the loop and have not posted in a dogs age.  But, I figured I might work around that and let you all know about something that's going down over the next few weeks.

It involves this fella.
MARCH!  Where the MINDBLAST IS MIGHTY!
Yep it's time for March MODOK Madness 2013!  Since 2008, the brilliant Brendan Tobin and, myself have been devoting every March to a month long tribute to our favorite mental organism.  It's a blog where we can showcase artwork submitted by anyone who loves this amazingly bizarre Jack Kirby creation.

Right now we're ONE WEEK into this years festivities and I remembered that I needed to invite anyone from the society here to send us a MODOK if the mood strikes you, or you could just go and check out the blog to see all the excellent art.
Just go to MARCH MODOK MADNESS!

If your interested in sharing a modok with us:
Just Email us your MODOK: (modokmarch at gmail) Images should be 72dpi. Feel free to include how you would like to be credited, any description you want included, and a link to your site.  We'll post um up right until April first.

Hope you dig,
GogoPedro

Wonder Woman pun prints



Chunder Woman.
Best not to Google "chunder".


I did my two favorite things at once : made puns and painted colorful pinup art.  They're blind packs.  I got the idea from Mike Mitchell and his Super Series + blind box toys.  If the prints move well enough I have a list of a few hundred jotted on post-its and stuck to things around the house.  Wonder Woman is the best.




More deets are listed at the LTD art gallery site.

American Splendor from the Crypt






For Seattle's LTD. Art Gallery comic book themed show in March, I decided to do a mashup of Tales from the Crypt and American Splendor, merging the Cryptkeeper and Harvey Pekar drawn in the style of famed Splendor artist Robert Crumb. The quote is a Pekar line that I found fitting for the Cryptkeeper.
The original 11"x14" piece will be available for purchase as well as 20 prints.
