Winter Window

A blizzard blew in on Monday and blanketed the city in snow. I'm at home, discouraged that I haven't real drawn anything in the better part of a week, and was just so captivated by this view outside of my studio window, that I just felt compelled to drop everything and put this image on paper.

I got a little more adventurous with the Photoshop colors than I have before, using gradients and transparencies. There may not be as dynamic or have as much happening as a lot of my other illustrations, but it felt good to do something different for a change and I had a lot of fun with it.

  2. Hi Erik, I saw your buffalo comment at Cal's blog. "They must have heard someone utter a discouraging word." One of the best comments I've ever seen, so I thought I'd come over and check you out. You seem to be a talented guy and your blog looks interesting. If you don't mind, I'm going to tag along. Thanks!

  3. Hey guys, thanks for commenting. I didn't realize I had any. It turns out that "Send you an e-mail when you get a comment" thing isn't a default setting, so I had to fix that. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I hoping to have some more work up real soon.
