Will Oldham

here's an illustration I am working on for illustration class. I haven't decided on coloring yet, but I really like how the texture in the line work looks.

quick sketch

I've been trying to work on some quick sketches of musicians I like. My focus for class this semester is to work on music editorial type illustration. The sketch below is of Victoria Legrand from Beach House. I drew into my Moleskin and then scanned it into the computer and colored it there.




It isn't the most solid drawing, but it is getting there... I think.

I created a promotional postcard (not the kind you send out, but the kind you leave places) for Boise Rock School. The little illo took me forever. The hand done font is by Ben Wilson from his logo he created for them.





I started this much much too long ago. But I think it turned out great and is very eye catching! Let me know what you think.


Also busted this out last minute for The Very Most (I did their album art recently) and now I have done their shirt design. Jeremy--the same chap that created my website--wanted a simple line drawing of his toy piano... but I took it a bit further and thought textures would be really neat.

in case you missed my art show... here are just SIX out of TWENTY paintings and drawings I did.

a nice little write up on me in the Boise Weekly

Tara Morgan mentioned me in a small write up for the Boise Weekly about my show coming up at Flying M.

But come January, things will change drastically. Julia Green, local Boise State illustration student and concert poster artist, will premiere her new show "Wild Wilderness." Green already has a few sketches for the show up on her blog at juliagreenillustration.blogspot.com, and the vibe seems to be Precious Moments meets the death of Bambi's mom. Her cartoonish illustrations of prancing acorns, regal owls and gasping trees speak to the majesty of the forest, all the while acknowledging the wild and unpredictable temperament of the natural environment. To check out either of these shows, head to Flying M Coffeehouse at 500 W. Idaho St.



Did some blind contour drawings of my boyfriend and his friend and the one in black ink was a contour drawing of me by artist and musicians, Zach Jones. The clouds will be for sale at Wild Wilderness

Wild Wilderness

I have a show coming up at Flying M in downtown Boise. I just finished making the postcards and whoa, do I feel a load off my back, but also an extra boost to get this work finished!



I used a sketchbook page for the main image, so this exact drawing won't be in the show, but characters like it will be.









haha. well, I guess you can also study for art history while you take a gander at my drawings.
