Featuring Jared Salmond!

"Hey Nate's blog visitors!
Jared Salmond here, Nate's schoolmate at UVU. Nate accepted the call of the blog trade (or whatever this is called) and gave me an idea of what I should do for his blog. He suggested I do a triceratops on a tricycle. Which I thought was a hilarious idea he posted earlier on this blog. So Nate said his was chewing three pieces of gum, mine is in a triathalon. I wanted to have him prescribing tricyclien (or however you spell it, like on Arrested Development!) but I think that stretched it too far. So enjoy! I did one in a more realistic style and then some cartoons for your viewing pleasure."




Here is my original sketch that Jared used.

Elk


This is a quick line drawing of an elk I did for my friend. It will go up on his wall with the beartender and some other pieces.

Long.......drawn out......sentences


So my good friend Lee VanNoy Call invited me over to watch a movie called Starcrash (1979). It was so out-of-this-world awesome that I had to make this illustration (plus it's been a while since I've worked on something just for fun). For anyone who hasn't seen Starcrash, go watch it. For those who already have, go watch it again. It's one of the best worst movies of all time, it even gives Troll 2 a run for its money. It's extremely quotable and is fun to watch with a group of friends. With Christopher Plummer as the Emperor of the Galaxy and David Hasselhoff as the Prince, you can't go wrong. This is a scene from just one of the many excellent parts of the film. If I knew being emperor came with such power I might have gone a different direction in school.
