hey – i’m ben. all the drawings on this site are mine, i made them. i’m living in knoxville, tn and help manage a small design studio called the village. if you’re interested, i’m currently taking requests for prints – so, if you’ve got a favorite let me know and i’ll try to work it into production. also, check out my daily drawing blog – i try to post a new sketch every morning. sometimes i forget. sometimes i don’t.
a little about me: i’ve lived a few places ’round the world. i love my fam; wife jessica, and kids we call luke and ezra. there’s also a dog. i spend a good deal of time in front of computers – i like to try to make it up by visiting the woods. at the beginning of 2010, i suddenly lost my hearing and am still completely deaf. i don’t say that for sympathy, i’m really quite content in my life – just saying, incase you try to call me – i probably won’t answer the phone. and, if i do, the conversation will be a bit one-sided.
how do i make these drawings? well… most of them are with indian ink and a dip-pen. some have spray paint. others use watercolor. a few are with more primitive tools found in the kids’ section of the art store…
how long does it take to make one? pfft, i don’t know — some happen overnight, others i pick away at for weeks.
