Honey...I'm late.....

Well just a couple days. Sorry about that dear friends.


I had a blast hanging out with my NYC peeps and rocking Comic Con. I heard Saturday sold out and had over 78,000 guests....Good thing I waited until Sunday (50% off graphic novels too!)

So after a couple of weeks of comic illustrating, I ventured out to the show floor, art in hand and smile on my face. I heard that when we talk to someone, people tend to hear the negatives louder than the positives. I talked to various editors and artists and sadly the negatives were booming. I suppose it beats everyone kissing my ass, saying how amazing my work is. I'm taking every critique into consideration and will be a stronger artist because of it.


On a positive note, one publisher seemed extremely interested in my work and want me to send them my comic once it's completed. Boo-ya.


Also, I may have art over on a super rad comic podcast. I'll hopefully know soon.



Due to having my ego crushed at Comic Con, I started a "Creative Bootcamp". Within my "program" I'll be working on various aspects of the comic making process including such issues as anatomy, inking, story building and character development. More details next week.

And speaking of anatomy, here's some images from my first figure drawing class in over 4 years:

Hey all.
Here's some new screen captures for the week. Just putting the finale touches on these to brig to NYC comic con.

Oh here's a design I did for a band. Sadly I just learned they're breaking up. Maybe I'll get rid of the text and make prints of just the art?

Also I can't figure out how to get the comment box to show. I put in some html in the editing months ago to hide it, but now can't find it..... Maybe a rework of the blog and website will solve that issue?


Time will tell.
I'll be back in a week with Con pictures. :)


Sites of the week....


surfthechannel.com = Mad Men!!!!!

Hulu.com = 30 Rock

Facebook = distraction from working!
