Million Dollar Bill Coming Out Soon

Artwork by the extraordinary, Dale Jackson from Living Waters



No doubt you've heard that one of Hollywood's most beloved singers passed on into eternity this week. His sudden death shocked millions of people around the world. Like most of us, he doubtlessly expected to live many more years.

This is a sobering reminder to the world of their own mortality.

Jesus commanded:
“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature."
(Mark 16:15)

Nothing Comes From Nothing!

Do you see any artwork below?
Me neither. That's cause I didn't sketch anything. Nobody did it.. therefore it doesn't exist.

Same goes for us. But.. difference is.. we exist! : )

Who made the cow that made the milk?
Who made the bee that made the honey?
Who made the matter, space & time that made us?
Who made the gases?

Obviously someone with more power who can exist outside of those things made us.
Someone with God-like attributes, God. : )

LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE SONG below! (especially the nothing comes from nothing part... lol.)



I love this song from the Sound of Music movie. Julie Andrews was incredible! It's probably one of my
favorite movies ever! : )


LOL!

For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, but lose his soul?

Today 150,000 people died,
including two very well-known celebrities.
May this remind us that we all have an appointment to keep.

May it also help us to forget that which doesn't matter,
and get right with God while we still have time.

A friend of a friend wrote this: "Life is truly a vapor. I was just last night making a short list of celebrities that died in 2009 after the death of Ed McMahon. May we all consider our eternity and whether we have peace with God. Ricardo Montalban(Jan 14), Paul Harvey(Feb 28), Natasha Richardson(Mar 18), Bea Arthur(Apr 25), Dom Deluise(May 4), David Carradine(Jun 3), Ed McMahon(Jun23), Farrah Fawcett(Jun 25), Michael Jackson(Jun 25)"


"For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world,
and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange
for his soul?"
(Matthew 16:26)
:0(

"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"
(Romans 3:23)

"But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."
(Revelation 21:8)

Living Waters - Book Cover

This is for one of Ray Comfort's new books. This one was actually flipped around afterwards and then, blurred together in the middle by Dale Jackon. So it'll look a bit different from this once it's been published. Fun to draw it though! Tons of fun!

9th Children's Book [edited post]

Here's a pic sample from one of the other stories...

So, here's what I've been working on lately.

Mine are the cleaned up drawings you see there at the beginning. The others were drawn by another artist a while back ago.

Actually, there are a lot more drawings then what you see posted in this here video. But at least you get a glance at what I've been up to..



From "The Father's Blessing" - This is 1 of the 11 children's book series. The author, John Ligon plans on putting all 11 books into a case and make them available as a set once they are all finished.

The books have like... 30+ drawings within each of them (not including the the many revisions that take place.) The ministry is based out in Brunswick, GA.

John Ligon is both the "AUTHOR" of all the books,
as well as the "NARRATOR" you hear in this video. lol.

So far.. my *favorite* book that I'm working on is the 7th.
I'd love to post the drawings on it.. but I've gotta wait.
*sorry*

Now, there are like a TON of characters in these books. I re-designed nearly all of them.. except for the rabbits, that are named, Mrs.June, Skippy {Personally, I had just wanted to change them a bit more - But whilst drawing for a client, you must submit to what they want... since they are hiring you!) & also the Pig that's in one of the other stories <-- he was really drawn well... I wouldn't have changed him at all.

There has been a total of about 18 CHARACTERS so far!
Lots of work & lots of drawing.. but I'm loving it!
It's loads of fun! :)

Funatico.com

Recently, Ivan Spasenovic contacted me from funatico.com to make a little article about me on their site. It's great for promotion as well as browsing for inspiration to draw from. When you get time go check it out.

Funatico is one of the most popular entertainment sites on the web with huge collection of funny videos that will make you lol.

21st B-day Invite Caricature


This is for someone's b-day coming up. I'll be drawing live caricatures there. Hopefully, I haven't lost my touch! :P *yikes!* I've been doing so many of these digitally.. I have to get back into the freehand stuff again. It's going to be a "Winter-wonderland Theme" b-day. Everyone will be wearing white I guess! lol.

Quick Digi-Sketches

Well, after I got finished with some work today.. I figured I'd go ahead & draw something up..
I know.. I know.. I know...
They're really sketchy drawings.

But I've been working on some really clean work & my hand hurts now. HAHA. I decided to post this mainly cause I can't post any work that I'm working on.. until it's published. I can't wait to be able to share it all. For now though.. here's two quick sketches! :) Enjoy!

P.S. Click on the links for the answers to those questions on my OTHER BLOG... called, Esly's Blog. :) (Still under development!)

In the middle of stuff! - Easter weekend, etc.

okay.. this isn't gonna be much of a post.. cuz I'm so darn busy. I'm so sorry. (Not that anyone comes here anymore..) but, whatever. I'll post soon. I'm working on a few projects here and there. One I'm having fun with in particular is some children's books. weee! How fun is that? I'm enjoying it. I'll enjoy it more when they're all finished.. and I get to read them in my hands, flipping through the pages.

You know one "children's book series" I used to enjoy a lot in particular were "The Bearstein Bears". I used to read them so happily as a kid over & over again. They were so colorful! Not to mention they had morals to every story that taught kids about organizing, behaving, etc. I'm sure I picked up a whole lot of my good habits from there. It made chores look like fun. haha.





Anyhow, yeah. I'm still out here in Australia. I sure do think about home a lot. I do. I browse around at all my friends blogs & look at photos... remembering all the great times I left behind. My lil' conscience is eager to go back and enjoy all of what I took for granted. Being in Disney's constant spotlight of the hundreds of people passing by. Hearing about the height of their exciting days! And the children telling you about their parent's most secretive secrets.. haha. It was a riot.


Then, you've got my little Dodge Neon that drove me from point A to point B all around town to & fro. How, I wish I had never sold it. lol. I know it's just a little car.. but it was my car.. and I had a lot of memories within it!


Then, you've got the views. Beautiful Florida...

Always a peaceful sky to look above you.. with plenty of action going on, everywhere you look! Perfect for the artist in need of silence. :)



I just recently became a children's church teacher at my church over here. The kids are great.. but I'm used to dealing with so many more. They're such a small lil' group. This isn't them.. but this was Easter after church. I had made easter eggs for the children to represent "New Life". I also made some little Easter bags with "Proverbs/Quotes" on them that spoke about "Forgiveness". I wish I would've taken photos of everything. I worked so hard on them! lol. ah-well.



Also, I think I'm overwhelmed with David's huge family over here. I really thought I'd get more time to myself being away from my family.. but hahaha... I was wrong. LOL! ;D It's not a bad thing at all.. it's just over whelming cuz there's so many of them. They're like more dramatic then my own family. uh.. well, okay.. maybe I'm exaggerating. My family exaggerates the most. ;) Here's a few of them. There were so many they got cut out.. some were outside too. This was Easter Sunday after church.

It's not just his family, it's the newbie-chores of being a wife. It's so weird! There's like double the amount of stuff that needs to be done. Being out here really makes me admire my own Mom a lot. She's always been an independant over-acheiver-do-er! Running around constantly helping people and forgetting all about herself.

Look at this.. here's a random photo I have of her among the many of her doing something for some kids she's never met at some random school. This is like her everyday at a different place everyday helping someone new everyday. That's like the story of my Mom. How cool is that?!


Anyhow, this was just a short lil' post.. with some random thoughts.

EDITED : Not Caricatures & Not Colorful.. but...

ADDED LATER....

okay.. so they went for completely black & white.. and made a few changes of the placement of the "X's" I changed it a bit to make the marks stand out more in a completely black & white scene.

OLD POST BELOW:
Not FUN Caricatures & Not TOO Colorful.. but... it was interesting to do.. all the same. Yeah.. this is for like an "Easter Scavenger Hunt" map thingy. It was such a pain to do.. cause the place isn't even done being built yet... hence, the LACK OF DETAIL in the buildings. The client wanted it to be "SUPER-SIMPLE" & "BLACK & WHITE" along with 2 xtra colors.. for cheap printing.Also.. the reference given to me was the img. you see there on the bottom right. I took the liberty of searching for it on google earth instead to help me out. It was much easier.. lemme tell you! I guess this was just good for practicin'a'lil', "PERSPECTIVE". Something I don't like doing too much of. :P
I HAD TREES & other PROPS in the Background before (thinking about the Disney maps) as I did it.. but.. like I said earlier, SIMPLE is what they wanted so I took them out. ok. that's it 4 now.

Hobart, Tasmania - Australia

Well, I went on a lovely trip to Tasmania. Boy was it cold. But it was a beautiful place! It really was! I'll try to add some more pix later. I've gotta get to work. Hopefully I'll be able to add some more pix later.

State of Victoria - Bush Fires in Australia

The photos you see here are of what I took with my cell-phone camera...
Right by where I live..

I just thought I'd share some photos on here. I've emailed most of everyone I know.. but I'll post these up for those who I don't have emails of.. or for those of you I know get too many emails.

I'm sure you've heard of all the fires going on over here in Australia on the news. Over 180 + people have died. And a ton of houses have gone up in flames.

Well, believe it or not.. they weren't far from where I'm living now. Very very close actually!


Recently there was a super EXTRRREME MEGA-HOT-DESERT-HEAT-WAVE over here that lasted for about 3 entire days! *Ouch* lol.

It was about 108 degrees Fahrenheit & about 43 degrees celcius. But it felt like 155 with no a/c! Very hard to bear!

During the time we had the 3 days of the intense desert heat wave.. David & I couldn't handle the heat (due to our a/c unit not being very good) and we headed over to his mother's house with our pets.

It's a bit of a funny story. We went over to her house cause it was cooler. While I was there... we were sitting in the living room chatting. David of course was sleeping cause he had to work later that evening to do security. But anyhow.. while David's Mom and I were in the living room..


she said:
"oh look outside! How lovely!
I think the clouds are coming and maybe
the change will come through".

I looked outside... and said
"ah, yeah.. maybe. Hey.. wait a second...
That isn't right. Why are the clouds so orange?"

So.. I went outside to take a look further in the back yard.. and I saw what was really happening! There was like an enormous fire going on! The scary part was..
the winds were super strong.. and going against us. Sort of like what I've felt in a Florida hurricane "wind strong".. but without all the rain, thunder & lightning. It was like a fast hot heater blowing in your face... or like a large hot blow dryer.

Later we could see about 7 helicopters flying close to the surface trying to save people and put out fires.

These photos are all looking out from David's Mom's backyard toward one of her neighbor's houses. The smoke later reached to the horizon of her other neigbor's house on the other side. It was crazy. The sky turned from blue to like a dark orangey & gray color.

The smell outside smelled like burning sulfer. It wasn't very pleasurable. *yuck!* It wasn't anything like a good smelling fireplace at all.

The feeling literally felt like someone was holding hot ovens on the highest heat surrounding you. If you were not under the shade.. the sun rays felt like someone was trying to burn you with a lighter to your skin. It was super hot!


I never knew heat outside could feel that hot anywhere in the world. I know hell is hotter.. I'd hate to feel anything even remotely close to that ever again! Like I said before, I'm so glad I'm saved. Praise God!


The fires have been surrounding us... in certain places. There were a whole bunch of houses & streets burning up in the area we just moved from, in Hampton Park & Narre Warren suburbs. Only 15-20 minutes away!
David had to work for this guy, this past Saturday because the guy that had to initially work.. well, his house caught on fire. I think he's okay. I don't think it was completely burnt to the ground. I guess we'll be finding out later.

Some sketches

This was a bad photo taken of a photo with my phone. Sorry 'bout that! But.. you get the just of it all hopefully! ;)


On this next one, the lady wanted to be driving a Cadillac. So here's how it came out. NOTICE the wheel is on the wrong side of the car.. but it's the correct side here in Australia. I totally did that by accident! lol!

A gig from a while back.

Someone just gave me this pic today from a while back.

A Hawaiian Christmas Gig.

I took these with the camera phone. (sorry for the bad quality) There were some really great ones that aren't posted here. I'm bummed that I didn't take enough photos. The others were actually dressed up in a Hawaiian type theme. I'm hoping I run into someone later, that maybe took some photos. I got a few standing ovations @ the beginning... I was like... what? lol.




This kid below was so funny.. he had so many expressions!


The last girl, I didn't take a photo of her.. well, cause I hesitate to put up really young kids up on the internet.. with all the crazies out there.. if you know what I mean. I was happy with the likeness on this one though.

Some Jimmy Pereira Work

I just thought I'd share some cool work by Jimmy. These are two of my favorite pieces of his.

This is his comments about it...
"This is a painting that I did between my first and second year in grad school. It may be somewhat abstract, but it is of Jesus (as a young boy) and his mother Mary. The inspiration for this piece was thinking about what Jesus was like as a young boy (the Bible doesn't say a whole lot about Him as a child). To think that the same arms that Jesus stretched out to embrace his mother out of love were the same ones that would be stretched out to be crucified for us (out of love) is a very sobering thought. It was done in oils and took A LONG TIME to complete. Completing this one was kind of an emotional rollercoaster and a great learning experience. If you have never read the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) before, now that were in the Christmas season, now would be a great time! It will definitley deepen your realization as to what Christmas is all about and WHY and HOW Jesus was born."
If you look closely at the one above.. it says,
SOCIAL SECURITY, NATIONAL SECURITY & ETERNAL SECURITY.

Hollywood Millions!

yaay.. everything's in the works! I have a lot of work to do to catch up with "Paul Clarkson" from New Zealand & "Dale Jackson" from CA.

With the BIG move I just made into a new house.. thing's haven't been as easy to keep up with all my work. I'm still unpacking a whole lot! There's been so much work to do to the house.. and well, I've also been getting in a lot of commission work as well. All the same.. this below is fantastic! They're going to be making a website for specifically the Hollywood Celebrities. The ones I worked on are at both ends on either side below. Marilyn Monroe & Elvis on the left... John Lennon & Steve Irwin on the right. I still have a few that I've done that you don't see here.. like, Heath Ledger, Chris Farley, Leonardo DiCaprio & Dustin Hoffman. I still have 5 that I have to finish up for this set. So.. I have to go now, so I can work on them. I just thought I'd share.

side caricature work

okay.. this one was a request to do a bunch of students in a classroom with the teacher reading a book. I had to draw small versions of @ least 5 of the kids. I don't really enjoy drawing small people caricatures from photos.. but I did the best I could.
This 2nd one has a keyboard teacher with a student singing. The kid's photo.. I don't have. (sorry)

Another teacher.

I didn't really feel like scanning the photo in.. LOL! Takes too long... and I'm a little busy at the moment... the others I got thru via-email. But this one I promise you.. I did a lot better on the likeness then I did on the others. ;D hee-hee.

Below, the likeness was a bit poor on this one.. maybe I could've rounded off the head more.. rather then square it off... but I post these.. so that I can learn from myself... if not, from others. I have to live & learn, try & fail and/or succeed. Not only that but the body situation was a rip-off off of Brian Wright's. I didn't seem to do as well... as my own beach body that I regularly do. Next time.. I'll draw my own version. I have some samples, in some of my earlier posts on here. I just like trying other people's styles... Once in a while.. it's good to get out of your own comfort zone.

This last one I was very happy with. Though, in the photo.. I couldn't see the top of her head... but I managed to make it up. ;) All in all, I was happy.

A 40th b-day gig.

Here's a gig I did a while back ago.. for a 40th birthday of someone's. The main thing that I remember was the EXTREEEEEME-ly LOUD karaoke music that was being blasted next to my ear drum. I thought I'd never hear again! Now, I thought David had taken a lot more photos then the 3 you see here.. but apparantly.. those were other people taking photographs.. lol.


A couple commission

Here's one I did recently. The photos r there just so u can see what they looked like. It was for a wedding photo album. I was almost pleased with this one.. but I saw a lot of my flaws later on. The important thing was that the customer liked it. :)

NCN Convention 2008 - North Carolina

Here's a inside look at the NCN Convention. I obviously couldn't attend.. cause of my distance at the moment. But it was nice for someone to make out a little video of it. I learned of this video off the Tom Richmond blog.



Generally at this convention, there are seminars and workshops on caricature theory, digital illustration, freelance illustration, drawing techniques, exaggeration and even the legal issues that concern caricaturists like “right of publicity” and “The Orphan Works Act”. It's a place of VERY good Resources for any artist. Wish I would have been able to visit.

A Couple in Love...

Here goes a fun couple from the states. They've got some serious personality in their expressions for sure! It's a Christmas gift to the wife. So.. I hope she likes it. Well, I'm off to work!

The Last Two of the Six.

This video I made below was directed specifically for the (DISNEY - caricature connection crew) "CC-BLOG" (which is set to private).

But I figured, since I'm talking about "John Lennon" and "Heath Ledger" caricatures... for W.O.T.M. I'd post it here too. That way I could share some of the work that I did with others who may have an "interest in drawing" but - who do not work at "cc".

VIDEO:Small Talk, Overview of John Lennon & Heath Ledger




Eventually, I will share ALL OF THE WORK I did for them, here on my blog.. but I'll wait till it's at least been publlished.


P.S.
I hope all you artists are having fun at the "NCN" Convention!!!! I wish I could be there!!!! :(

P.S.S.
Thanks sooooooooooooo much Terri a.k.a. (ANIMATOR HEAVEN) !!!! For blessing me with the Adobe CS3 program package!!! I STILL can't believe you sent it to me straight from Adobe free of charge. What an ENORMOUS gift!

Back Online.... (yaay!)


I'm back online finally! Hooray! We had some technical difficulties getting the internet hooked up. The guy who was putting in the line hit a water pipe!!!! and well, it was a MESS!!!

There's a housewarming party we're going to soon have.. so, I've been just unpacking more & more & more! Organizing & Reminiscing as I open boxes I haven't opened in like forever since about 3 yrs. ago! I'll have to take some pictures soon and post them. But there's a lot to do! Especially with a housewarming party coming up for about 70 people!!!! *Yikes* That means... a whole lot of cooking is gonna be going on!

Also.. I need to catch up with work. I don't even know if my clients still remember me! I'm a bit behind! :P

...MOVED... but no internet yet! :P

okay.. so, I'm okay.. I've moved.. but I'm STILL WAITING on my internet to be hooked up. It's taking longer then what was planned. I won't have it hooked up until about November 1st. So, for me this is a HUGE trial... As most of you know.. I'm a computer head.. it's like attached to me, in a strange way. lol! But ah-well... such is life. I'll be online soon enough again. So, if I haven't emailed you in a while.. you know why. See you soon on cyberspace!!!! signing off... Esly.

Akiane - Spiritual Young Artist

wow! Ya know.. Each time I hear about these particular children who are being led by the mighty hand of God.. I am always in Awe....
I'm sure most of you have heard about kids such as that little boy, "The Sky Angel Cowboy" being used miraculously and abundantly by God for others. Well, here is another child, Akiane. She has been amazingly blessed with her talent. Check it out. She also has a website you can check out here.....www.artakiane.com

and here's Logan's Video.. (just in case you've never seen it)

LOTS OF OLD ONES....

Yeah.. like I titled it.. these are all old ones I found scattered about in files on my computer... that I MEANT to post but never got around to it! LOL.

I actually don't like many of them too much.. As, I see a ton of flaws in probably the majority of them! ALL THE SMILES LOOK THE SAME TO ME. UGH! I really get annoyed at that.

You live & learn I guess! You can only get better.. as you practice. But, like most artists do about their work... I'm my own worst critic. But I'll share them anyway.

So.. enjoy!

I noticed.. I always make people look happier then they are... hee~hee... I guess it's sort of a trademark I guess. :P


Below.. is another Tim. One cool thing about working with other artists.. is being able to draw them again & again.. but each time in a different way. You can probably find a few others on this blog of him where I drew him completely different.

Everyone's favorite color was blue... including the surfer girl near the end of this post. I love blue too! It's my favorite color. This blue paint (the darker blue in these drawings)is specifically called, Aquamarine Blue. I love it! It's so bright. :)


I should'of drawn this lady on the phone. blah,blah,blah.. For some reason.. girls/ladies always tend to lean on getting a mermaid drawing though. :P

Yeah.. I know I posted it twice. So you could see the kid's eyes in the 1st one better.. and in the second one.. you can see the drawing better. I couldn't decide which to put up.. so I posted them both. I know.. crazy me!


It's so interesting to see how the brightness of colors on your paper as well as your clothing all vary depending on the environment you are in. Florida is such a BRIGHT state! I've noticed that here in Australia.. it's just so dim in comparison. Even THEIR sunshine state here called, "Queensland" has an abundance of dimmer skies then that of Florida's sunshine state.

Sorry this one is such a dark photo.. it was obviously night-time here.

This little girl was soooo absorbed in reading Keelan's (boss from Orlando) "LEARN TO DRAW CARICATURES" book... which you can get @ amazon.com.
"Let's Toon Caricatures"
I learned a lot from it when I 1st started. I highly recommend it.. if you want to learn how yourself. :)


Fun british couple! lol. :D


Another view from behind.

okay.. yeah.. this one below of me.. was taken by Tim (my old co-worker) I wasn't posing for this one.. and YES.. that is an EXTREME outfit.. that you would NEVER see me in.. in public OUTSIDE of Disney's Animal Kingdom Themepark! They stuck a gun to my head to convince me to wear this! lol. (I'm totally just kidding) But, for real.. IN ALL HONESTY... if your makin' good dough.. it sorta makes you humble yourself to humility & embarrasment in this case... and in all aspects you somehow become able to wear an outfit like the one below. lol :D




These last two were taken with my phone... so, they're not very good photos. But you get the just of it. Right?

This kid below, Blake.. was a natural animated "bloke" as they would say here in Australia. ;)

This guy was apparently part of a rap group.. called, "Boyz in the Hood". I think he said they were a new rendition of the old group from the late 80's early 90's. I don't know if that was true.. but he wanted his pic taken with me. Weird.. it's usually the other way around. lol.


After lookin' at all of these.. I just have to say.. MANNNNN.. I miss my job!!!! in Florida!!!!! :( When you're working there... it doesn't really feel like that. But when you're without it.. sheesh!!! It just really hits home in your heart.. and ya miss it bunches!!!! I'm totally okay with where I am now.. and believe God has me here for His purposes.. but I'm tellin' ya, it's a killer to the flesh! If you're living for God spiritually, you'll understand what I mean by that. Anyhow... those are my thoughts. I figured I'd post a bunch of stuff.. so you people out there have more to look at to entertain yourself with. Till the next post.. I'll c-ya later! :D

The Golden Gals


Yesterday.. I was flicking the channels around... while I was taking a break from doing freelance stuff, I was flicking the channels around & decided to take a stab at drawing the golden ladies. I was totally just messin' around.

Then, I remembered an old co-worker of mine, Ted/Keelan's right hand man & my boss from Orlando, (how he took a drawing of his and colored it on the computer..) So.. that's what I did. I like the look cuz it's as if it's popping off of the paper. It was fun too.

Kids from Flinder's Christian School.

okay.. here's a few black & whites I forgot to post. I can't seme to find the photos of the original subjects.. (sorry 4 that) But.. here are the drawings anyways.
