This is a pic I did for HR Professional some time ago. It’s in the current issue I believe.
Here was the original sketch, and some other ideas I pitched to the editor. I quite liked the one with the words going into the head, but the one they picked was nice too. The article was [...]

Now that the Liquid City anthology is out (and it’s lovely), I guess its safe to show off some of the pages from the short. Our story , Eidolon, is the closing piece, and if anyone wants to send comments that would be rad.

Here’s a spread I did for OWL Kid’s Halloween issue. It accompanies an article that goes ‘How to haunt your house’ with some tips for kids to pull of simple pranks. There was supposed to be another spread about dressing up as a headless ghost, but that was shelved out of respect to the recent [...]

And… done. Illustration of subprime crisis. What with all the talk lately of the markets going to hell, I thought it would be an interesting thing to illustrate. Illustrator and Photoshop, actual size 8.5×11 300dpi. RGB version shown, CMYK seems to dull a bit due to the intensity of the greens.

I guess anyone who hasn’t been asleep under a rock for the last couple of weeks is well aware of the trouble some of the major banks are going through. It seemed like an interesting thing to illustrate, so I did up a sketch. I think it’s pretty self-explanatory. Maybe a bit too funny for [...]

Got a new computer and installed CS3 on it. Tested out Illustrator and Photoshop. Spent couple of days getting everything back up and running. Still not too sure about all the new stuff, but I think it’s been configured to do what I need it to do. Wacom pressure sensitivity still drops in Photoshop; relaunching [...]

So like everything else that gets finished, The Hunted started out as a pencil sketch. Since this was a test, I sketched it straight onto my Stonehenge paper. Which is a bit silly because it’s nice expensive paper that, like all nice expensive papers, is prone to lose some of its niceness due to erasing, [...]

The Hunted. Pen, india ink, brushes, Photoshop, custom digital brushes, some scanned paper, Stonehenge paper, and a few backaches. Not sure which I prefer. Top is a variant, bottom is the original.

The Dove ‘Pay Beauty Forward‘ site has been launched! I did the illustrations for the backgrounds and small elements like the plants and fish. It was an interesting project that was quite technical despite it’s simple looking finish - a lot of the elements were on separate layers to facilitate the scrolling that was programmed [...]

Illustration of a boy and his fawn. He’s very fond of it. Hahahaa.
Sorry. Bad pun.
