A friend gave me one of the published Robert Crumb Sketchbooks recently. This one’s from around 1990. Man, that guy can draw! There’s a wonderful freedom in his sketches, a drive to delineate things witnessed first hand and imagined, fueled by some kind of obsessive compulsion: you get the feeling he can’t stop drawing, even if he tried. Painfully funny and honest. Here’s a sample of some even more recent sketchbook work (warning, not all of it is safe for viewing at work or around kids). The excitement just oozes from the work, and is guilting me into drawing and sketching more.

I’m a storyboard artist and motion picture production illustrator living and working in the Los Angeles / Hollywood area, specializing in traditional hand-drawn storyboards for live-action and animated feature films as well as After Effects and CG animatics for pre-visualization and post production visual effects (VFX). I also draw and sketch a lot and upload it to the Sketchblog here and social media – just for fun!
