C2E2, Boston Comic Con, & Heroes Con

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 11, 2012, 8:08 AM



Three upcoming conventions I will be at in the coming months - two over the next two weekends - Chicago's C2E2 (April 13-15th - Artist Alley Table L13), and the Boston Comic Con (April 21-22nd where I wil be a guest), and the ever popular Heroes Convention in Charlotte North Carolina (June 22-24th). As usual I will have select prints, sketchbooks, bookmarks, originals, and will be doing a limited number of sketches. If you are looking to pick one up at any of these shows, please send me a contact note to get on the list or set up a pre-con commission pick-up, (I spend longer on these pieces). Other Conventions that are further off that I will be attending this year: New York Comic Con, Baltimore Comic Con, and if possible Dragon Con in Atlanta again.

Projects update: I'm wrapping up pages for a fun short story for pal Mike Walton's False Positive, and working on a number of illustrations and concept pieces for video games and novel covers. I've been working on two other comic projects as well that are nearing fruition and will be getting exposure soon. I'll mention and point to things as soon as I can. In other words - I've been very busy lately.

In other news, a bunch of new pieces have been added to the comics and illustration sections on my personal site and here. A smattering is below, but scroll the gallery for about 10 more. Enjoy and hope to see some of you at a future convention!

Also, I'm nearing the 1,000 "likes" on my Facebook fan page. When it hit's 1,000, I will pick a person at random from the list and will do a free commission for him or her, so if you haven't "liked" the page yet - please do to enter yourself in the drawing :)

Doodler and rambler of all manner of 2D artwork. I do a comic for DC Comics called AZURE - a scifi, underwater, post-apocalyptic adventure. I also illustrate book covers, album covers, and a buncha other stuff. My mediums of choice are digital, pencil, and watercolour and not necessarily in that order ;)

Current Residence: Baltimore, MD
Operating System: which one?
Personal Quote: Where am I going and what am I doing in this handbasket?
Interests

I aim to illustrate just about everything in the Temeraire universe by Naomi Novik. From her first novel, "His Majesty's Dragon", what would you like to see me illustrate?

So I'm definitely just going to go through and fav all of your Naomi Novik stuff ;) I just finished book 3 and have to restrain myself from going out and buying the rest all at once. I love how you've depicted the various characters! :heart:

Hey mate! How are you doing? Hope everything's okay. :)

Was just thinking about Azure over the past few weeks and how awesome it was when Zuda was up and we had awesome pages of awesome comics every week, so I decided to drop by and leave you a note. :)
What have you been up to, man? I can see you've been pretty busy with cons and stuff, but can we expect any comic work from you in the near future? :) I miss my Govar weekly fix! :D

Take care, man. :)

Hey! I've been great - thanks for asking :) And yes - Ive been working on a bunch of comic projects actually. It's a bit funny - they are probably all going to hit/release at the same time due to weird scheduling. I'll be sure to let people know and broadcast it when it happens - in the next couple of months certainly.

Azure I would love to finish what was meant to be 3-6 seasons, but it's just not meant to be right now. The rights revert back to me in another year or so, so perhaps then if I'm not working on my dream project. We shall see!

Thanks again, man!
