THE ART AND SOUND OF TYREE DILLIHAY
7 minute poses drawn directly with Faber-Castell Brush Pen on animation paper.
I'm really trying to get geared up again for some painting. It's crazy but, for me, direct brush pen drawing actually helps.

THE ART AND SOUND OF TYREE DILLIHAY
I don't think job descriptions/titles say anything "about" me...that's what resumes are for. But, to give you a glimpse - I'm that kid that grew up in Inglewood, CA who was quirky enough to be fascinated by cartoons, Michael Jackson, Prince, Mort Drucker, Michael Jordan, Spike Lee, Woody Allen, John Hughes, Andrew Loomis, RAPHAEL, Rick Baker, Caglione and Drexler, Fangoria, Dr. Dre and HIP HOP all at the same time.

Wow I didn't think standard animation paper could handle heavy duty ink work this well. I thought that it was so thin that it would bleed right through it.
Very Cool drawings, from life or imagination?
7 minutes, When you got so little time it's important to chose the most important lines, these are beautiful man...
Sick lines & poses man. I liek the middle one on the second page best. Have you seen Craig Thompson's work? Comic writer/illustrator, absolute wizard w/ brush pens:

@ stephen - faber-castell pitt brush pens are in fact not as heavy duty as you'd think. They're not in the same category as say a Sharpie or Charpak or Tria. They don't bleed on any paper.
These are from life. A great model that goes to all the major studios and art schools in California.
@ libra bear - Thanks, man...you hit it right on the nose. "choice" is what I'm all about with these studies. When I say I'm trying to gear up for painting, I want to be able to make the same linear statements but in massive strokes of bold color. It's gonna be nerve racking and fun all at the same time.
@ stuart - thanks for the lines. Pose credit goes to the model. You like the headless one, huh? (shrug - :)
Thanks for hipping me to Craig's Work. I like the work on his blog alot. He's definitely using a couple of different brushes. The pen I use has a rubber nib. I see the stuff he's doing has more drag and texture and that's coming from brush hairs...something I plan to mess with when dem paint brushes start comin' out. BLA-DOW!!!
I don't think I noticed he was headless - I just noticed the pull in the wrinkles of the fabric lolz
these are awesome. I really like the two end ones on the second page because of their attitudes. Very cool. :)
stuart - I've been looking alot harder at my Leyendecker reference.
deb - thanks!! attitude says alot doesn't it?
