A little woodburned cougar I did for a friend who’s given me a lot of wood panels (including this one). Woodburning, gold paint, and some white pen/pencil for highlights. You can see how the gold paint pops out when the light hits it at certain angles :) This was a lot of fun to do. I have no idea what kind of wood this is. About 6” x 10”

little watercolor for Fathers Day :) Here’s to my awesome dad, he’s taught me so much! And loves it when I draw crazy creatures. Here’s to him!

another doodle from my sketchbook, inspired by some of the artwork I saw while down in New Mexico. No I don’t really actually understand horse anatomy, thanks for asking.

I just want to say thank you for all the new followers I’ve gotten lately! Here are two pages out of my sketchbook just for you :) I’ve been having a blast exploring this new style that really focuses on line, movement and energy. Thank you all for your support!

A southern/Texas themed guitar commission I just finished! Featuring a longhorn skull, a compass, northern mockingbirds, and some classy barbed wire. I had a lot of fun transforming this old Epiphone. Done with woodburning, wood stain, oil paint, finished with Tru Oil. Betcha you’ve never seen a guitar with the wood grain going horizontally.
