Sketchy Miami sketches

So these sketches for Sketchy Miami are a bit out of my norm.  I felt the need to loosen up my rigid lines and try something different.   Let me know what you think.

Miami Beach Sketchbook completed!

Another sketchbook complete for the Brooklyn Art Library!
This one is about my time in Miami Beach. (My last sketchbook was about Portsmouth).   I tried incorporating more color (via colored pencils).  I like how it came out.
  Of course it's filled with my favorite places and things in Miami Beach.  It's a bit smaller than the Portsmouth book so I had to edit it down a bit.  I could have filled it with so much more.

Here it is:

There's always a push to finish towards the deadline and it's usually bittersweet to part with it. Since this is my second one, it was a bit easier...just a teeny bit.
Starting in April 2012 it will tour the World! See if it's coming to your city or country here.
Let me know what you think too!

Ram Dass

Our new apartment space has inspired a new series for our walls.  I'm moving some old art out and decided to make a three part series on people who have and still do inspire Tommy and I on a spiritual level.  I finished the first piece of Ram Dass. I listened to several of his talks while I carved/etched the paper and I was so excited to make this I did it all with a dull blade. ha. my fingers were numb for a week, but it was worth it.  I've got fresh blades for the next two pieces.  hooray.

Christmas sketchy

I know this post is a little late being that it is after Christmas, but I still wanted to share this Chritsmas Sketchy I did for Sketchy Miami.  I wanted to do more but we were in the middle of moving to a new apartment.  The dust is starting to settle in our new place and I'm getting inspired to make new art! yay.
I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas :-)

Here is the Christmas sketch of Daniel Ortiz:

I made a special color edition of Halloween Sketchys.  I just may include these in the raffle prize at the next Sketchy Miami Halloween Party on October 29th!   I have a special drawing in mind that I'll be working on in the next couple days that I am excited about...stay tuned.

Halloween Sketchys!

Here are some fun Halloween sketches I drew for Sketchy Miami.   I really had fun making these –  The Halloween theme really made me get creative.;)

New Sketchy Miami sketches

After a vacation, running a half marathon in Colorado, and having company over for a week...I'm back to the drawing table.  Here's a few more sketches I did yesterday.  It feels good to be drawing again.  Didn't think I'd miss it, but once I started and finished one, I did two more, all in one sitting!
