I was honored that Rebecca Guay asked me to be part of a section on illustration in International Artist Magazine. It was particularly nice to be associated with 3 other such great artists and illustrators: Rebecca Guay, Eric Fortune, and Edel Rodriguez.
This is a series on wood. They're about a race I think. It's just fun to paint on malleable surface like wood as a diversion from rigid surfaces like copper.
Just another distraction on the way to fame and fortune. Had a mix up on a shipment of brushes so things slowed a little. Should be back on track soon.
Believe it or not this is not the blockbusteriest of the blockbusters. But it sure was fun to paint. I love what I do. I tried to give some nice steps in the process. Someday I'll make a video, I promise.
Just thought I'd give you all al look at the final cover for jim and the Flims by Rudy Rucker. I didn't do the design just the illustration. It's a trippy story. You can buy it on Amazon or from Night Shade Books.
I am toiling away and my paintings. The problem is that I am working on several at once and can't seem to finish any of them. But when I do I will win you all back to my loving embrace. In the meantime these erupt from my psyche.
Yeah I know I should just give up on these narrative illustration things but they are just way too much fun. So forget it. I'll do them whether you like it or not.
Just got word about which pieces got in to Spectrum 18. Of course the poster will be in there but I was happy to see the others. I love Spectrum. Two of them will also be in Illustrators 53. Know which?
