You know you like your job when you spend your free time making fan art about it. I was drinking and drawing the other night when I had this half baked idea about Sabine brainstorming in her sketchbook. A few hours later and it evolved into this silly painting about my friend Brad Rau having a pint with the Ghost Crew. There is no way anything like this would ever get approved at work but its fun to imagine the Rebels cutting loose at ‘ol Joes bar after a successful mission. Why Brads there, I don’t know but it cracks me up and in my book that’s reason enough. …And to clarify, for all the parents out there, lets just say Ezra is drinking “space root beer”.

Here’s a detail so you can see Sabines doodles.

Drawing of a witch underwater by Sterling Sheehy. Drawn at Shinny drawing night in San Francisco. 9×11 inch. ink, pencil and guache on paper.
I went to a drawing party last night. This ink sketch was one of my take away drawings. Someone challenged me to draw a Victorian witch under water and this was the result.
My son Silas is really getting into his drawings lately. I’m very proud of to see how passionate he is about art. He takes his work very seriously, almost too seriously.
The other day we were in the middle of a long drawing session when it dawned on me that he is a drawing fiend. I drew this little caricature of him. Oh man was he upset. I agreed the drawing was off insisting that the eye color was wrong. This only upset him more. I was trying to coax him into a caricature battle but I don’t think he gets it yet, got to get him to fire back. Can’t wait to see what happens when he starts drawing the family. I’m sure it will be glorious.
Lots of interesting drawings in this one. Dated 2006-2007. It documents my move from the US to Canada, the start of my professional career and the final days of my bachelor life.
Had a little free time today so I sat down and drew this cozy little room in ArtRage. Not sure what it is so i’m going to call it a playroom. Probably too tidy for that… Who knows maybe the kids grew up. I’m over thinking it.
Some friends of mine recently opened the Fogbelt brewing Company in Santa Rosa, California. Long story short, the beer is awesome and I’ve done a few concept designs for them. Here is a teeshirt Idea I doodled a few months back. Go check them out if your are ever up in Santa Rosa.

I should point out that the Shultz Museum is only a few blocks away so make it a day trip. Good beer and good cartoons what more you you ask for?
Just finished building my WaterColorBot. It’s super fantastic awesome! I thought it would be fun to have my new drawing robot draw more robots, so I put it to work drawing Chopper from Star Wars Rebels. Here is a little time-lapse of WaterColorBot doing its thing.
My five year old son and I collaborated to make this lovely little ceramic Chopper C1-10P USB storage jar. He was taking a potter class at the local community center. chopper is his favorite character from Star Wars Rebels, the show i’m currently storyboarding on.
