Portfolio updated!

I recently put a whole slew of stuff in the various portfolio sections. Some of it has been shown on the blog before, but I’ll repost them here anyway.

These are available to order as a fine art print:

I made it a year!

Well, I guess I can say I made it. It’s been one full year since the first post on my blog. In celebration of this accomplishment, I am having a photo giveaway. More about it at the end of the post.

So what have I accomplished through this blog? It hasn’t gone too far yet, but over a year I have had 60 posts with a total of 129 comments. The site as a whole has had 2,453 visits from 2,102 unique visitors across a slew of countries.

Studio Project – The Beginning

I have begun a new pretty ambitious project. I am retrofitting an old wooden granary into my working studio. I am not entirely sure, but I believe it was built in the 1970s, but possibly earlier. The only reason I think 70s is because of a grain ticket from that era that is on an interior wall, though that really only says that is when it was once used to hold grain.

Prisoner graphic short story cover teaser

Just a quick note to say that I do still exist. I have been crazy busy trying to finish up a big project, in the form of a graphic novel. Or comic book. or graphic short story? Regardless of what it is called, it is an illustrated version of a short story written by Dean Mehrkens. Here is a little teaser for it, as it is coming very very soon. It will be fully hosted here on the blog and on Dean’s site and will be available all together in a number of formats when it has ran its course here.

Also, I am still working on a how-to video for the textures in the previous blog post, so that is something else to look forward to.

And without further ado, the cover for the Prisoner graphic short story, coming very soon:
