Groot's Got The Moves

Some days are better than others, and some days you're commissioned to draw dancing Baby Groot! 

He'll ultimately be done traditionally, but I wanted to start getting the hang of drawing this little dude. I'm super excited to tackle this commission, because while I went into GotG Vol 2 wanting to dislike Baby Groot -- admit it, pop culture took him and ran with it so hard, you couldn't enter any store without seeing a toy of him -- I was already in love by the time that opening sequence had begun. Too cute! 

I also haven't done a WIP gif in a while, so let's do this:

New Job, New Reads

What a crazy two months it's been!

In July I began working as an artist at WMS Gaming, a local gaming company that specializes in casino games. We do a wide array of both original and licensed work for international venues, and it's been a wonderful, wonderful experience thus far. Everyone is so kind and supportive, and I'm learning so much. I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with.

While working in a studio is fabulous, it also leaves me pretty drained by the end of the day. Hence, the lack of updates. But here's a Peter Quill/Kitty Pride doodle I've got on the back burner. For curious minds: it's 100% canon in the comic universe via All-New X-Men and Guardians of the Galaxy, two of my favorite series. I highly recommend both - the art is stunning and the characters are their usual awesome selves.
