Dollhouse

Dollhouse

Digital Render/Procreate, July 2023

Halloween isn’t far off now really, but this was more inspired by an idea I had floating around in my head earlier this summer. There’s a seed of an idea for a possible story maybe, if not then it’s just a spooky little drawing that will likely be framed to show this autumn. Print quotes available per request.

Night Watchman: Flashback at the Springs

Night Watchman: Flashback at the Springs

Procreate/Digital Render, July 2023

I've drawn at least five more pages for my Night Watchman project in the last couple months- that rate would produce 30 pages in a year, but I've sped up slightly as ideas start to flow. I initially colored this flashback page in sepia, but recolored it in rose which was a huge improvement. I recently took a scouting trip to get some reference photography for use when sketching backgrounds and scenery for my Night Watchman drawings- it's important for me to give the story a grounded setting.

G.H.O.S.T. Agents in Space!

G.H.O.S.T. Agents in Space!

Digital Render, 2022

G.H.O.S.T. Agents Donna Printiss, Oleg Ivanoff and Tybalt Cross fighting a man-eating Space Cephalopod! This pinup was inspired by fellow G.H.O.S.T. Agents artist Dave Praetorius, and not originally intended for publication, but author Rocko Jerome decided to use it in addition to my Donna Printiss at the Whisky a Go-Go. 

 G.H.O.S.T.  Agents: Crimson Reckoning, a spy-fi anthology series by author Rocko Jerome, made up of short, self-contained pieces where every story exists in the same world and characters reoccur throughout the centuries-spanning narrative.  The oversized Treasury Edition format in which this will be produced, printed on newsprint like the Bronze-Age comics of my youth! This will fit both character pinup images I produced for the project perfectly! 

The roster of other talented artists that also worked on this project include Barry Tan, Sean Luke, Dave Grom, Todd Fox, John Burkett, Caspar Schumann, Miguel Galindo, Nathan Grixti, Jamie Jones, and Sam J. Royale.

Join us on the G.H.O.S.T.  Agents: Crimson Reckoning Kickstarter running until July 8th! We quickly received Kickstarter's Projects We Love badge of approval! Bleeding Cool and Comic Book Resources, two of the leading online comics news sites have covered the project- high visibility outlets that gave us a head start! There is ZERO risk- you don't pay until the goal is met, and all the work on our end is already done!

G.H.O.S.T.  Agents: Crimson Reckoning Cover

Artist: Barry Tan

Last year, author Rocko Jerome asked me to contribute to a forthcoming issue of Cosmic Lion Productions' G.H.O.S.T.  Agents, a spy-fi anthology series made up of short, self-contained pieces; where every story exists in the same world, and characters reoccur throughout the centuries-spanning narrative. Their impressive record of blowing past every Kickstarter goal previously set got my attention, and Rocko's natural PR bravado and creative vision gave me faith in the project. 

I also love the oversized Treasury Edition format in which this will be produced, printed on newsprint like the Bronze-Age comics of my youth! This will fit both character pinup images I produced for the project perfectly! 

The roster of other talented artists that also worked on this project: Barry Tan, Sean Luke, Dave Grom, Todd Fox, John Burkett, Caspar Schumann, Miguel Galindo, Nathan Grixti, Jamie Jones, and Sam J. Royale. I'm certainly punching out of my weight class with this lineup but thrilled that Rocko chose me to join them!

Join us on the G.H.O.S.T.  Agents: Crimson Reckoning Kickstarter today! We blew past our first 48-hour $$$ goal with over 55 backers and received Kickstarter's Projects We Love badge of approval! Bleeding Cool and Comic Book Resources, two of the leading online comics news sites have covered the project- high visibility outlets that have already put us ahead! #makemorecomics #supportindiecomics #indiecomics #cartoonistkayfabe

Night Watchman Vs. Werewolf by Night

 

Night Watchman Vs. Werewolf by Night

Procreate/Digital Render, May. 2023

I'm unsure Marvel would approve any official usage of their intellectual property, but it would be hilarious to pit my own Night Watchman against different horror villains. Or at least a Halloween special edition, Maramec Springs at night is the perfect setting. The idea came to me after rediscovering a painting I drew of Werewolf by Night ten years ago. While I never read any Marvel issues as a kid, I was a big fan of the Universal Monsters which had a sort of reassurance in the '70s/early '80s, and the Wolfman was my favorite. Imagine my delight when the Werewolf by Night movie appeared on Disney+ last October!
