Description Here's my contribution to Bottleneck Gallery's current show, Gadgets & Gizmos. I'm a huge fan of both Blade Runner and Syd Mead so when Bottleneck approached me about contributing to a show about tech from movies, the Spinner instantly came to mind. The show is up at Bottleneck's NYC gallery space as well as online, here: [link]

Beautiful stuff. I always really dig the restrained pallets you use as well. Well done, sir!

Anytime dude. Sometime I need to sit down with you and chat about brushwork. I feel I'm lacking and I love what you do with the stuff.

Dude. Amazing work! How do you get those nice straight lines and circles with the brush?

Thanks! Just practice, though I did use a pen and compas on the circle inlay of the unicorn.

Nice! Do you ever use any guides for the round parts or lines or do you just build up a steady drag stroke?

I'll use guides to pencil but I pretty much always just freehand the inks. I like that all of the linework seems contiguous. I find that when I mix dead weight lines and brush strokes they clash and take the viewer slightly out of the image. That's just for my work though, there are people who can mix the two really naturally.
