Today we’re focusing on the work of Andrew Bell, an artist influenced by skateboard culture, with experience in top creative positions at industry giants Nickelodeon, and Marvel Comics. After several years of climbing the ranks, Andrew decided that he needed some other outlet for his creativity. He needed to create something that existed in the real world, and not just on monitors and discs. Andrew began to doodle between computer crashes, at meetings, and on the subway. Combining his computer skills with his renewed passion for drawing, he created a website where he forced himself to draw one every single day in an effort to resuscitate his traditional skills.
This little project, entitled “The Creatures in my Head“, is a smashing success that will take you days to get through. Thanks to the encouragement of friends, family and online fans he’s created an original drawing every day for three years straight, being late only once due to a massive East Coast blackout! To date Andrew has over 1,200 original creatures under his belt (or in his head, as the case may be). Be sure to check out his most recent series titled “Burning Desire“, as well as free wallpapers, figures and more.
