I've been pretty busy so far this year with the drawing. I think I've already outpaced myself for all of last year with the output I've created so far in 2012. I've got a couple things on the horizon, one being a publication that will have my work in it, and the other will be a show coming up this summer. I'll have more info to share once I have more concrete details.
For now, I'll leave you with a link to the new work. Right here are the bulk of drawings I've made since January. My friend David helped me get some great shots, including some great closeups.

And there is always older news, on my blog.
