Wow, busy month. Just finished with all my projects and finals for this semester, so now I have time for updating! I changed the banner to a more colorful, summery picture. I took a bunch of my sketches, scanned them into the computer, and inverted them in Photoshop, made some quick stars and color changes and voila! I rather like it, it's fun and different.

I'm going to do a bit of an art dump here, these are drawings I did for a bunch of stickers for one of my classes, I got a lot of input from friends. All of these were done in Corel Painter. I'm rather getting the hang of Corel and I really like using it. Works well with my cartoony style for these kinds of drawings.

I'm also going to put a link up to my Portfolio web-slideshow, it's just a simple slideshow with a link to email me: http://gc.palomar.edu/33175/33175cnorris1394/ -(I can't get the actual link to work here, you might have to copy/paste into your browser, sorry)- This Portfolio was actually a final project for my Portfolio Development and Presentation class this semester, and I'm really happy with it. I've also submitted a hard case Portfolio to the Del Mar- I mean- San Diego Fair this year. (sorry, it will always be the Del Mar Fair to me...) I hope it does well :) Now, on to art



Who doesn't want to be a Pretty Pink Princess?



Deadly ninja assassin... it's kind of a recurring theme with me and my friends, I know.


In a conversation with one of my friends, she was commenting on how there seems to be such a feud between Pirates and Ninjas, and she couldn't understand why. You can have the cunning and stealth of a Ninja, sneak up on your opponent, and "Hi-yargh!" take him out :) She asked me to draw this for her immediately afterwards :)



My friend wanted a monkey ninja, I misread it as Monkey Island ninja... this was the result :P (I do not own Guybrush Threepwood or anything from the Monkey Island games)



Anyone who's ever played Ocarina of Time truly wants to do this to Navi (I do not own Link or anything from The Legend of Zelda, Ocarina of Time)



Mr. Ant and Mr. Spoon frequent my sketchbooks, especially Mr. Ant.



We've all fallen asleep at our desks and taken trips to Dreamland, don't lie.

Well, I think that should do for now! I'm looking to get a few of my final projects up here soon, so keep an eye out. :)

  1. These are great characters! I love the "Monkey-Island-Ninja-Assassin," that would make a great series! Keep up the awesome work!
