AJ and Fireman

This one was done a couple of years ago.

Monsters

The Monster in the Road

This is the cover to a story Aaron Job wrote. Not sure what happened to the story. So, you'll have to judge the book by it's cover.

Sith vs. Jedi

Who will prevail?!

How to Draw Your Favorite Cartoon Characters

Servants and Singers T-Shirt Design

Servants and Singers is the 3rd - 6th grade children's choir at our church. They're having a contest to come up with a t-shirt design. This is Aaron Job's design concept. He found the Bible verse all by himself, after I showed him how to use a concordance.

Servants and Singers

Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving, make melody to our God in the lyre. Psalm 147:7

And The Winner Is...

Our apologies to all the participants in the Star Wars "Guess Who?" contest. We've made you all wait four months for the winner to be revealed. We sorted through all the correct entries and put them in a 50 gallon barrel and drew a winner.

Ok - actually there was only one participant... and she got the correct answer... no barrel... she wins! Congratulations to Autumn for guessing "Darth Vader!" She wins an autographed picture of Luke Skywalker drawn by Aaron Job.

Autumn, you may email us to claim your prize!

The Grand (and only) Prize:

Episodes I - VI

Here's Aaron Job's drawing of quite a few of the Star Wars characters:

I was trying to figure out what the image below was - the tractor beam, maybe?

Then it just appeared... Darth Vader!

How many of the characters can you identify?

Star Wars 30 Years - Sketch

I tell ya the boy is hooked.

Stickman Star Wars

While we're waiting on a winner for our contest (actually we're still waiting on our first guess to be submitted), we'll pacify the viewers with this pen & pencil parody Aaron Job calls "Stickman Star Wars".

Star Wars Guess Who?

The moment all you Star Wars fans have been waiting for... another contest at Aaron Job Draws. If you can guess the name of the unfinished character drawing below, you'll win an authentic (autographed?) drawing of Luke Skywalker!

Please submit your answers in the comments section.

The Grand (and only) Prize:

Jedi Group Photo

Here are the Jedi fighters. How many can you name (btw, this isn't the contest either, you'll have to wait!)

Star Wars: The Next Generation

My apologies to you Trekkies out there for mixing movie titles, but it seemed appropriate. Over this past Christmas break while Aaron Job was out of school & I was enjoying extended vacation time provided by my gracious employer, I decided to introduce my son to the world of Star Wars.

Despite our noble desires to manage, maintain & minimize the media consumption of our children, I threw caution to the wind and borrowed the entire set of DVD's from a friend of mine. Over the course of about two weeks, we watched every episode... all six of them... all 803 minutes (minus the graphic scenes where Anakin melts into Darth Vader) - plus some of the bonus features. Now you know why there were'nt any new posts on Aaron Job Draws!

Needless to say, the boy loved it! Aaron Job enjoyed them as well. I can still remember seeing the first three (or is it the last three?) in theatres - including the Cinema 150 in Little Rock, featuring a "dome roof and a 120 degree curved screen". This theatre closed in 2003 - being the last one of it's kind in the country.

Quick story - I know you want to get to the drawings - which have been all but extinct since before Christmas! Anyway - my friend was approaching aforementioned theatre to see Empire Strikes Back while the previous showing was letting out. As satisfied viewers filed out of one of the side exit doors, my friend heard someone say (way too loud) to another, "MAN! I CAN'T BELIEVE DARTH VADER IS LUKE'S FATHER". Guess they didn't have spoiler alerts back then!

Well - Aaron Job has several drawings inspired by the Star Wars saga and I'll begin with this one & post others throughout the following days. And - if I see that he still has a few faithful followers (your comments will be a good indicator), we'll host a Star Wars contest at Aaron Job's request with a grand prize being a handdrawn portrait of Luke Skywalker- who's hair will glow under a blacklight! (Aaron Job didn't plan it that way, it's just that the only yellow marker he could find was one of my highlighters.)

The following was a school assignment, I think.

Santa's Helpers

Christmas Elfs (elves). Notice the letters "E L F S" that make up the elves' bodies.

Aaron Job Shoots

I know this blog is for Aaron Job's drawings, but I thought I'd break protocol & post some of his photographs. The great thing about digital cameras is that you can let your 7 year old son go crazy & you haven't lost any money on wasted film! These pics were taken over the last 12 to 18 months. All of these were taken by Aaron Job w/ no help from any adults.

Now, granted, for every one in-focus shot, there were about a dozen that weren't.

National Geographic runner-up?

Where is that child's mother!?

I'm still trying to figure out how to take decent close up shots with that camera...

Now, Anita might have taken this one - but hey - kudos for training the lizard to pose!

Stick around, maybe I'll post some of his videos.

Martin Luther: The First Rebel

Thanks for your patience during our move - we're slowly getting back into blogginG mode. Aaron Job has not stopped drawing though! We've got plenty of stuff to scan, upload & blog about.

But for now, in honor of tomorrow's great day:

October 31, 1517

REFORMATION DAY

MARTIN LUTHER

Drawn for Reformation Celebration in 2006 - 6 yrs old.

*From the looks of the door, Luther was from the South.

Moving

I apologize for the infrequent posts here. To make things worse for Aaron Job's die hard fans, we will in fact cease postings for a short period of time. Lord willing, we'll be moving in less than 2 weeks, so we are frantically packing.

Aaron Job Draws will return later this summer.

Thanks!

Gone Fishin'

Don't know if these two were drawn at the same time, but they both involve fishing...
