Zombie Dinosaur: Cryolophosaurus

Happy day before Thanksgiving everyone. May your Thanksgivings be filled with turkey and zombie dinosaurs. Here is a sketch I did of a zombie cryolophosaur. I think I made up a universe for him where cavemen were fighting him off since there are flaming spears sticking out of his head. Either way he is decomposed and totally angry. Zombie Dinosaur GO!

Checking in with a Dinosaur



Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't been on in a while. But here is a work in progress for an illustration I started a while back. I did the roughs in flash and then printed it out and worked it up in pencil. Anyways... yeah its a dinosaur. Suchomimus to be precise. Zombified. And wandering through a mangrove swamp after a flood. There is a herd of Styracosaurs who died in the flood and a ton of crocodiles reaping the benefits. There is still a lot of work to do... but I haven't posted anything in a while. Now I have. Enjoy.

Drink Your MILK!!!

In what will go down in the book of Ryan as one of the coolest work related projects ever I give you the newest version of the Nesquik bunny. I was approached by Antonio (our art director) and told to redesign the nesquik bunny in my style for an Adult Swim audience. I was told to go nuts and I did. Big thank yous go out to Allison Craig for the rough doodle of the little boy and Charles Sites for the inspiring words carved above the bunny. Enjoy!*

How Could You Be So Heartless?

Hello all,


Sorry for my lack of posts as of late. Comic con and all... Oh and this wonderful, funderful video for the Fray and their song "Hearless". 

This is what the last page of crazy doodles was for and I'm happy

that I can share it with you all now. Big props go out to Hiro Murai 

(director) and Ross Girard (producer) who were two of the coolest

guys to work with. Also big congrats go out to Allison Craig, Dave 

Vandervoort, and Dave Gerhard for their awesome animation and 

Keith Yan for his late night compositing madness. Also congrats to 

Tony Andrade for rocking the layouts with me. This video marks my first gig as production coordinator. I also did character designs

and layouts. Even snuck a few dinosaurs in there. Enjoy!

Doodley Doo


Hello all, sorry for my lack of post as of late. I've been busy working on this. Actually I drew this yesterday while I was at a shoot for a music video. It didn't take as long as it looks like and I probably finished the whole thing in about two hours. Its an exercise in stream of conscious drawing. I ran into some hurdles along the way but kept plugging away until the page was filled. Some of it works but then again its not supposed to make any sense. Enjoy.

20 year old critters

Today I got the great opportunity to take a look around the Chiodo Brothers studios with my friend and coworker Steve Kellener. It was super inspiring to see so many dinosaurs and creatures that I grew up loving. As a tribute to the Chiodos I want to post this... a drawing from when I was 8 years old featuring their famous toothy furballs, the Critters. I guess when I was 8 I decided that the drawing wasn't clear enough so I had to tape a newspaper cutout to the drawing just to make sure that you knew who was devouring this poorly drawn human. HAHA.
