curiosities

Hello all,

It’s been a busy time, but here’s a peek at the goings on:

First, this is a painting (unfinished?) that I recently uncovered while going through my storage. All I know is that it was painted around Halloween time, two years ago, maybe…

Here’s a peek at a pin up I did for an upcoming MONSTER COMMUTE comic collection by my friends over at Steam Crow. Colors provided by the mighty Jenny Hansen!

Most of my time recently has been working on Melvin Beederman #8, the last book in the series. It’s a bittersweet end to a series that I had so much fun working on and I can’t believe it’s over. I just turned the inked pages yesterday to my publisher and I’m going to miss working on this series. I remember when my editor called excited to offer me the book which was submitted by then, first time author, Greg Trine and pulled from the feared “SLUSH PILE”- where manuscripts go to die! Unsolicited manuscripts are piled at the publisher’s waiting to be read. I had always heard rumors of these mysterious manuscript piles where stories float in Limbo or go missing, but here, 8 books later is proof that it is possible to be selected from the pile! There is hope for first time authors! Anyway, here’s a peek of the Melvin Beederman #8 cover without the logos. It’s been a fun ride!

Books are available here!

Here are two miscellaneous doodles:

Finally, available next week, this new Skeletown, two-color T shirt design. Please go to SKELETOWN.COM for updates! Update: The Skeletown Preview book is just about sold out. There are only a handful left!

That’s it for now. More soon…

Thank you for visiting!
