I'm sorry.  You were good to me.  I still love you, but I have a Tumblr now.

Memory sketch March 3, 2014.

Memory sketch today.  Something I caught a glimpse of on my drive in the rain this morning.

Cynthia

A character I've been messing around with.

The man with the dress

Memory sketch from my drive to work.  Took a detour through West Hollywood.

Old Glinda

Spur of the moment drawing of an old Galinda/Glinda.  I thought she could use a little bunny butler.  I was gonna flesh this out more, but sketchbook crashed and all I have is a screen grab.  Wicked.

Squiggle Shield Guy

End of day squiggle.

Elf Warrior

Morning warmup.

Trent sighting

Today's memory sketch is of my buddy Trent, who I happened to see this morning on my drive to work.

Neckbrace

I saw this guy on my drive to work this morning.  I wonder what his story is.

Squiggle General

Another squiggle break from work with Natalie.  Tried seeing beyond the boundaries of the page today.

Tumblin

I now have a Tumblr.  I'm still going to keep the blog, but I'm not sure what the future holds exactly.  Either way, if you have a tumblr or want to follow, here it is:  http://michaelherreraart.tumblr.com/

Eyes a burnin'

Working in the dark on a cintiq...not good for the eyes...ow...

Happy Birthday Mozart!

Today's warmup sketch.

Bicyclist

Just a 30 second sketch after work.  I should have put the front leg in the back and the back leg in the front.

Lost Hat

I lost my favorite hat yesterday.  Sure, I got it for a dollar at a thrift store, but it was the best hat.  We had so many adventures together.

Harlequin study

Studying some classical sculpture for inspiration.

Squiggle Pirate

Holiday Card 2013

Squiggle Red Hat

Thanks to Natalie for the squiggle!

Squiggle bird

30,000!?

30,000 views?!  Really?  I can't even picture the reality of that number.  Thanks to everyone out there who follows.  I can't even understand this.  It's really exciting to share and discover work in this platform and I'm very thankful for it.  This year has been really wonderful.  I should do something on here to celebrate.  Cheers world!

Thirsty Vampire

My dogs

I have photos of my dogs up at work so I did a drawing of them.  They are such a contrasting pair.

60 second Giraffe in New York

My friend Natalie told me what to draw.  Tried to do it in about 60 seconds.

I will never be good and that's not bad

I'm really opening up the floodgates for me posting nothing but fan art on here.  I had better be careful  Ha ha.  

Wreck It Ralph is a really special film to me, for many reasons.  It was really exciting to be at Disney at the time of the films release.  I did the second sketch below not too long after seeing the movie for the first time.  I always thought it would be fun do do a poster design with it.  I took a stab at it last night.  I think I like the original sketch better but I couldn't replicate the line in photoshop.  I still had fun.

Sherlock

I've really enjoyed this series.  I haven't tried drawing Sherlock/Cumberbatch before.  I don't think I pushed the drawing as far as I'd like.  I'll take a crack at him again some time.

Opera patron

Schnork

I've been pretty sick the last three days.  This goblin named Schnork has been clamped to my head the whole time.  He makes it very hard to work and breathe.  I wish he would leave already.

Ace of Diamonds

A quick painting before bed.

Working late tonight

Happy Birthday Mouse

Mickey Mouse is 85!  Happy Birthday Mick.

5 o clock face

This is me practically every day at 5. 

Mr. Gilbert

Another guy with a tray.  I dunno...

Waiter vs. Spider

Trying to stay loose and strengthen my drawings.  It's a challenge to know when to stop fussing over the drawing, and let the storytelling shine through.  This is just one of a bunch I did before bed.  I felt like this one is somewhat successful.
