While I was learning how to do art better in school, I discovered my favorite artist. He created a surfing character named Murphy who was in the gang called the Gremlins. Being a surfer named Murphy myself, I resonated with this. A few years later I met a good boy named Gremlin in a shelter near my office. He's been my best bud ever since. This character is a tribute to him. My goal is to reach 250 Gremlins sized at 11x14 (4400x5600pix). All images were illustrated in Photoshop. I exported the file into PNGs. Then I erased the layered file. These will never be recreated the exact same way.
