Ignatius Reilly!!!!!
Recently, Steven Gettis of Digital Medusa asked me to submit a literary themed drawing. I feel really bad because he's already asked me twice before but i've just been so busy that I haven't had the chance to do a drawing for his site. Well, since I've wrapped on Wall-e and now have plenty of downtime, I decided to go ahead and draw one of my all time favorite literary characters from one of my all time favorite books: Ignatius Reilly from "A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole.

The character is a behemoth of a man. He still lives with his mother and constantly writes manifestos about anything and everything on pads of paper in his room. The basic premise might sound lame but I guarantee, its a great read and there are moments in the book where Ignatius interacts with his mother or other characters that are just hilarious.
Toole describes Ignatius in the beginning of the book:
A green hunting cap squeezed the top of the fleshy balloon of a head. The green earflaps, full of large ears and uncut hair and the fine bristles that grew in the ears themselves, stuck out on either side like turn signals indicating two directions at once. Full, pursed lips protruded beneath the bushy black mustache and, at their corners sand into little folds filled with disapproval and potato chip crumbs.
Anyway,I'm a big fan of the site and I encourage everyone out there to check it out.... I'm sure you'll get a kick out of it!!

Criminal Pygmies
Hey Bloggers! So myself and a couple of friends at work, Rob Thompson and Austin Madison are doing a bi-weekly drawing challenge where we draw something after combining random words . This past week's challenge is: Criminal Pygmies!!!
It's a really fun, creative way to stay loose and exercise those drawing muscles after staring at the computer all day!

One More Week
Can't wait for everyone out there to finally meet Wall-e. I've had the best (and hardest) experience working on this film and just wanted to thank the many talented people at Pixar who helped me and taught me so much.
