Harley Davidson Commission


I was asked to draw a Harley Davidson Street Glider for a present and the idea of that scared me a little. I know that the detail in the motors are really high and knew it'd be a challenge. To make it more fun for myself, I suggested we add Ghost Rider into the mix and thankfully the client went for it. The new Ghost Rider drives a muscle car but I wanted to draw him anyway since his history with bikes is long and full of life. I also wanted to draw the new GR because he's Latino and I don't get to draw enough Latino characters. If you watch the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show, you'll see him there. 

Feel free to reach out to me at thelearningcurv@gmail.com if you'd like a custom piece of art for yourself or your loved ones. The holidays are coming and this would be an amazing gift for you and yours!

Below you can see what the pencil and ink stage of the piece look like.

The X-Men!


When I was young, I use to love the posters that Arthur Adams created, showcasing all of the Xmen and the teams associated with them. The MUTANTS poster was my favorite, but a close second was the cover of Classic X-men #1 which has the timeless image of Wolverine in the front of the team. 





As I grew older, I continued to love the X-Men, and Arthur's work, along with the art of George Perez, Phil Jimenez, and Ivan Reis. They are some of the strongest artists in the history of comics and have mastered adding more and more characters to a composition than any other artist in comics. They are my idols and my role models and it is because of their work that I challenged myself with trying to reach their heights!

This is the 11x17 illustration I have created to showcase my love for my idols as well as my favorite comic book team. The poster has been available at 16 by 20, but now I only have it available as 2 separate posters, measuring out at 17x22. 



 I look forward to doing more in the future and hope to get faster at it as well, as 3 years was entirely way too long to get this done.

Anime All Stars!


There are three reasons I create pop culture art. I get paid to draw a commission for someone, People find me at comic cons and ask me often enough for the same characters, or I just enjoy the subject matter and have fun with it. This image falls into the second and first category. Sadly, I do not have the time to draw as often as I'd like, so I can't dedicate time to draw each of these fun characters individually. The answer then is to draw them together when you can't find time for each one!

This is the first time I am drawing most, if not all, of these characters, so please forgive my interpretation. It was find trying to compose this piece and seems to get a lot of smiles and conversations started at comic con's, so I am glad I did it. My favorite were Luffy, Saitama, and The Elric Brothers. Hopefully you like this as well, and if you'd like a print, feel free to email me at thelearningcurv@gmail.com for your copy today!
