Hello there,

Its been quite a long time, so now I have  A LOT OF STUFF TO SHARE WITH YOU.
From comic work on the works, book covers, design, illustration and art...so just let me get some pictures of all of this and I'll put it all in this week. Promise!!!

To start with, I want to share the cover I did for my GREAT friend Nicholas Vince.
After various works, acting, chanting, and so on; he has returned to his unique amazing writting talent. I was simply overjoyed when he asked me to do his cover. But being true to myself, I forgot about it until the day we had to turn it in...aaarrrrgg! When will I ever learn?
So I whipped this out for him...I punish myself for not taking more time to do it (than one night and one bottle of white wine) but he seems happy with it.

Let me know what you all think.


Book cover for Nico

Hi everyone, its been a while, but it is time to put A LOT OF STUFF in this blog since the last time I came by. To start, a quicky but a fun one and important for me.
My GREAT friend Nicholas Vince, whom I've known from when I did my first doodles and before the internet existed, is writting again...after acting (Hellraiser...etc) and tons of other stuff (I'll let him tell you all about it).
Here is a preview of his book.
DON'T MISS IT.

DEMONIST cover try

I'm trying out some visuals and cover ideas, here is this weekend's result. I'm sure I'll do about ten visuals before deciding on the right one.

DEMONIST

The first pages of the book are inked and being put into color.

DEMONIST

After finishing several book covers, the time has come once again to plunge into comic-dom and the drawing table. The first pages of the Demonist have appeared on my drawing table and the layout of the first dozen is done. So more to come very soon. I'm still figuring out how I want to finish them when inking and coloring is done...any ideas out there?

DEMONIST

I've been ask to work on a project where demons are major characters. I've just started, but I have to admit that creating Hellraiser-like demons is fun.

Go to a convention...draw a Wolverine and a Hellboy

I had great fun at the Bristol Convention, and even if i was not a guest, i got a couple of requests to do some characters. Thank you art lovers and comic fans. Here they are.






Evolution

A while ago i did some character sudies of the Crow and Batman along with a painted piece for each. Some of you liked them so here they are...at your request. Personally, I don't consider them proper finished pieces, but practice pieces. I'm looking to update my color and painted work, and these are a bit too "old school" for my taste...so I'm redoing them, but i have no idea what the outcome will be.
This should be fun..
Here are the pencils for the new Batman...I still haven't decided what to do for the Crow one.
