India Ink and Brush

I'm fascinated by the notion of flat blacks describing volume, depth and of course the beauty of women. Much of my brush and ink drawings deal with working through this idea.

Perseus

Just a random illustration I did recently, as practice for using brushes and india ink, a primo example of why it's important to keep your practice up because this thing is a "Where's Waldo" of illustration errors. Still, can't beat the old myths for image fodder, it beats psychoanalysis any day!

Fashion Product Drawings

In college, I did a lot of experimentation into how far I could push graphite (pencils for the uninitiated) for use in product representation. I love the smoothness of the images, but the labor intensive nature, makes it a little impractical.

Christmas Cards

When I actually get my act together and draw them, my Christmas cards can be pretty amusing. Number one dates way back, when Clinton came into office. Two and three are setup and punch-line for the same card.

Self-portraits

India Ink, Watercolor. Having run out of ideas for Christmas presents for my family, I hit upon the idea of a series of self-portraits using various styles I've dabbled with in the past, the results are hit and miss but the intent was good.

Primitive Hoosiers

Pen, ink and watercolor. Love the delicacy of the crow quill pen. An unnecessarily vicious attack on the poor Hoosiers. Forgive me.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Generic Note to web bots:
Welcome to greggillis.com, the virtual home of me, Greg Gillis. I'm writing the words "Greg Gillis" frequently to boost recognition of my name for web crawlers and to see if I can displace the other Greg Gillis who pops up on Google before me. But that's Greg Gillis for ya', always looking for an angle. Also known as Gregory J. Gillis, as well as, Gregory Gillis, Greg Gillis continues to conceive of ways to write his name in sentences that appear innocuous to web crawlers. Bottom line, greggillis.com is how I, Greg Gillis, a.k.a. Gregory J. Gillis, get my name out in the world.
