Lately, I've been reading Amid Amidi's CARTOON MODERN which has been inspiring me to do looser, more stylized drawings and this was the result. This guy is a banker in the old west done in the old daguerrotype style of photography with a monochormatic sepia tone.
watercolor and pen with slight computer color alteration

I congratulate to you, your works are very fresh and solved with great agility and soltura, I see that you have predilection by the watercolors and line with marker
that is simply charming!

I agree with Gabriele. Let's be having more of these! I love your roughs...very pleasing to the eye. ^___^
What a great blog! You're very talented! I really admire people who can do character work, which scares me.
My brother in law does 3d animation, for stuff like Star Trek, Lost, etc.

well done...
kinda missing actual paints and paper...sick of all computer
stuffs..:)
and
happy new year.
Hey chris.. this drawing is good. Though, it's not much different than the rest.
Loose/sketchy doodles are always more fun to do though.. and nice on the eyes.
You just gotta know/or find out what style makes you tick. What really comes out of you. Books and other peoples art can inspire, but eventually you'll develop your own way..
All your previous material is great too. Dont loose that.
Regards

Great stuff Chris. Its always cool seeing other artist work. Very Inspiring! You have a nice sense of color and design.
Nice looseness! I've been trying to explore a similar path myself...
