Exciting News!

Hello All.

So, a drunk driver woke me up Sunday morning by totaling my car and driving away.  He was generous enough to leave half of his front end in the interior of our Geo Metro however.  He managed to push it 100+ ft before wedging the metro between my neighbor’s house and her car before he decided to back up and keep going.  In essence, we’re out a LOT of money (we were working on fixing up the Metro to near factory condition) and we’re out a Car.  We did have an old boat of a car in reserve, but some fool hit it today(Monday-Happy Columbus Day?) as well.  

I’m not asking for money, no.  All I’m asking is if you’ve been pondering purchasing a sketchbook, a comic book, original or print from me Now is the time to do so.  I’m offering ALL of my remaining works of art at your best reasonable offer and don’t be afraid to email or call to talk about it.  Sketchbooks ‘07 and ‘08 are available for $10 each or $15 for both.  Our flagship graphic novel “The Price of Tea’ #1 is also $10.  All of these in house publications are in a limited edition of 100, hand signed and numbered, with free domestic U.S.A. shipping. 

This is a looming threat to me continuing my artistic endeavors, so time is of the essence.  Thanks for your support; it’s especially appreciated at times like these.

Greetings all!

It’s been a damn long time since I posted here last, and I’ve got a lot of work done since!  First off, the first installment of our Graphic Novel, The Price Of Tea, is printed and ready to go.  View info about it here. We’ve created a whole website that is devoted to being a companion piece to the graphic novel just in case you’re not up and up on your Japanese studies.  It’s simplistic, but very interactive with lots of cool art.

Secondly, we’re going to be in Atlanta, GA on Aug. 27th-Sept. 1st, so if you’re down that’a ways swing on over to Dragon*Con and track me down in the Art show area.  I’ll show you some original artwork and maybe draw you a little somethin’.  (Of course you can buy a bunch of neat stuff too)

Thirdly, Mythic Circle #30 is out with a plethora of my illustrations in it.  I have a few copies for sale, so if you’re interested… Email me. 

Oh, and if you haven’t noticed, there’s a few new paintings in the gallery.  Go have a look!

Talk to you soon!

Hello All!

2:25 am–

I finally finished work on the interior of the first installment of our Graphic Novel - “The Price of Tea.” I finished scanning and adding the words mere moments ago. I’ve uploaded the double page spread for tantilizing measures, so here ya go-

So now I have to paint like a crazed goon to finish up some other work not related to tea in any way (hopefully, although I’m jonesin’ for some cold green tea right now…). You ever get a painting you want to do stuck in your head? Well, my head’s full of them. So that’ll take up some serious time. I guess that’s what I get for visiting beautiful places even though it’s the seventh year for the cicadas! Oh their screams torment me so!

Ah yes, if you’re going to be in South-Western Virginia (NOT West-Virginia) June 21st-23rd and want to see some original artworks, drop me a line. I’ll be there, but let me know soon because my schedule is usually packed when I’m there.

Enough rambling, I’m off to sleep!
Talk to you soon!

Hello All,

I’ve updated the website with a couple of new paintings- be sure to go get your eyes full here (link).

As for the Graphic Novel, here’s the synopsis to keep you enticed: The Price of Tea- 

Set in 12th century Japan when the lines between myth and history were overlapped; religion, bloodlines, and politics clash. With the winds of war brewing, a mysterious mountain dragon living under Muroji and reported to have the power to harness raging tempests, gets caught up in the web of fate.  Drawn from historical and mythic sources, The Price of Tea takes the reader through the gaps of historical documentation and into a rich and exciting fantastical world filled with Foxes, Kami, Samurai, and other creatures of myth that ruled Old Japan and shaped its history.

Hello All,

Just a quick update- If you’ve been wondering what I’m up to lately I’ve been working on the First installment of our Graphic Novel entitled “The Price of Tea.”  I’m very nearly finished, being on the last few pages to ink.  Here’s another clue to what all this mess is about-

  I’ll reveal the synopsis as soon as I whittle it down to where I’d like it to be, so you can start getting even more excited about it! 

Talk to you soon!

In Fact, I WILL be at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA this year as an artist in the Art show and I’ll have a booth with all sorts of excitement there. Whoo! You’ll just have to show up to see it all! Originals, some Prints, Sketchbooks (’07 and ‘08!), crazy decorations, Con exclusives, and an installment of our Graphic Novel.
Yes, you read correctly- Bet you didn’t know I’ve been working on a Graphic novel for a damn long time now. It’s coming soon, the debate is on whether it’ll be thicker or thinner. Printing stuff is always complicated. There’ll be more stuff about that here as progress continues…
