Caleb Deloss Crawford

I am a 21-year-old University student born in Texas, grew up in Germany, living in Arkansas, studying Illustration. The work you see here is personal work as well as school work.

“Night in the Forgotten Sea.” I made this illustration using my preferred technique: cross-hatching with Sakura Pigma Micron pens.

I called this one “Flight of the Fearless.” It’s made entirely with markers.

Pen and ink illustration for my illustration class in college.

His time machine didn't quite work out the way he expected.

This is the piece I made for John Brown University's Student Works Gallery. If you look closely in the third picture, you'll see it on the pillar.

This is an owl, as you can see. A beautiful creature of the night.

"Sorrow is renewed when the memory of kinsmen flies through the mind; he greets them with great joy, greedily surveys hall-companions - they always swim away; the floating spirits bring too few well-known voices. Cares are renewed for one who must send, over and over, a weary heart across the binding of the waves."

-The Wanderer

This was an impulse doodle I made because I'd rather draw about "The Wanderer" than write a paper analyzing articles about it.

This is where I’m going to live in the future. If it actually existed...

This is about Skyrim... sort of ... in case you didn't know. That jelly-bean guy with the "eye-patch" is a guinea pig drawn in a style I developed when I was 4 years old.

Some pictures I drew for a recent history project. My project was about janissaries, elite soldiers of the Ottoman Empire.

I’m better at drawing small things than big things, so the easiest way to draw something big is to fill outlines with lots of small stuffs. 

That and I like this quote by good ‘ol Van Gogh.

“The notion that one’s goal in life is to be happy, that your own happiness is the goal... I just don’t buy it.”

Two drawings I did.

The Hobo Life. Perhaps if you've moved a lot or if you're a Third Culture Weirdo like me, you'll understand why I felt inspired to make this.

This is how some of us behave in video games. But only some of us.

Sometimes I like to draw tiny pictures. I sent this one to my little sister to show her how we present art projects in college. I called it "Undiscovered Secrets". And that guy on the book is a gnome.
