No Women, No Kids

The fourth installment of my pop culture illustration series for my senior thesis. 

"No Women, No Kids."

Arnold, My Love, My Sultry Pre-Teen

So, "Hey Arnold" is on Netflix. While the show didn't particularly influence my art style, it was one of my absolutely FAVORITES as a kid. And honestly? Watching it again it still really holds up. Both the art, and the writing! I can't think of another kids show that touches on subjects like neglect, alcoholism, immigration and even homelessness in a kid-friendly way. 

And yeah, I'm still a little bitter that Helga never got her sultry pre-teen by the series end. 

Me Myself and I

Just Save Up All Your Nickles and Dimes

The third instillation of my cult classic film illustration series! I felt I needed a black and white piece to go with the set and what better film for that than Clerks?Kevin Smith films have been such a huge influence to my writing style. Clerks, Chasing Amy and Dogma all have a place on my favorite films of all time list.

FREAKED

The second installment of my Pop Culture Illustration series! Decided to do two Alex Winter films in a row and do the under-rated cult-classic FREAKED! I had a lot of fun with this one - I looked at a lot of vintage sideshow posters for inspiration. And if you haven’t seen the movie you should definitely check it out! It’s got Mr. T as a bearded lady - what more do ya need?

Who Was Noah's Wife?

For my senior project here at Pratt, I'm doing a series of illustrations all based around pop culture! All of the movies, cartoons, comics, and tv shows that have both made an impact on popular culture, and me as a person. So, needless to say, for the first in the series I HAD to do Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

...yes, my senior project is basically fanart. It was my professor's idea. Fight me, haha! 

Get Your FREAK on, Ricky Coogan

A little sneak-peek of a much larger, much more elaborate, illustration I’m working on. So keep your peepers peeled for that.

For all of you UN-CULTURED SWINE out there (haha I kid), this is Ricky Coogan from the 1993 cult film FREAKED; written, directed and starting Alex Winter (Bill S. Preston Esquire). I’ve only seen it recently, but it’s already on my top favorite movies of all time list. I just can’t find a damn thing wrong with this movie (and if you know me, you know that’s REALLY saying something.) It’s just 100% original, creative and hilarious. Check it out:
