Combining my love of drawing and music. Sketches created mostly using FiftyThree’s Paper app on an iPad, sometimes compiling multiple layers in Photoshop.

I was amused by the green cardigan-ed Nas in full dad-mode at the end of the <a href="http://youtu.be/xP4_0z2M85Q?t=3m19s">Daughters video</a> and wanted to sketch a grown-up Nas. I finally opted for something in that vein but more formal. Here is Nas, the Don.</p> <p>One day maybe I’ll draw a young, army jacket wearing Nasty Nas.</p>http://samsketchesbands.tumblr.com/post/27496196490http://samsketchesbands.tumblr.com/post/27496196490Wed, 18 Jul 2012 14:50:06 -0400IllustrationMadeWithPaperMusicNasSketch<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m63v0tedxW1qzgq9ro2_500.jpg"/><br/> Pixies - Color<br/><br/> <img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m63v0tedxW1qzgq9ro1_500.jpg"/><br/> Pixies - Pencils<br/><br/> <p><b>Pixies</b><br/> After a bit of a hiatus, here are the Pixies (classic version when everyone had more hair)! Color and pencils version. One year while driving 8 hours back home from college for the summer, we listened to Bossanova atleast 5 times in a row because there was no other tape in the car.</p>http://samsketchesbands.tumblr.com/post/25763512403http://samsketchesbands.tumblr.com/post/25763512403Sun, 24 Jun 2012 00:55:00 -0400IllustrationMadeWithPaperMusicSketchPixies<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4rqnfETR31qzgq9ro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>The xx</b><br/> Looking forward to the new album.

This is probably the first time I’ve drawn two people touching that didn’t look awkward or as if one or was floating off the ground.
