A Writing and Art Forum

One of my brothers, Ron De'Anor, has put up a website that has a lot of his own writing and one of our other friend's work as well. They do a lot of writing and are looking for some artwork to go with it. If you see anything that inspires you, draw it, submit it and you'll have some free hosting! check it out: Tribal Sun Studios I have some of my VERY FIRST comic work up there: see it here: The Prophecy

The Avengers: Ink Test

So I found this amazing Cub Scout song book from 1955 that has some amazing inked drawing in it. They are completely brush and the artist (still trying to figure out who it is) is amazingly confident with the brush and just drops lines in the work like it's hot. It's impressive. Anyway, figured I'd try it on The Avengers in preparation for next summers movies...and I also did Wolverine.

Paradise Lost: Character Designs

I am working on an adaption of Paradise Lost by Milton for my thesis. I am translating it to a 1930s Noir comic. These three characters are Adam, Eve, and Satan. Though I am not telling you which is which. I am hoping the designs will do that for me. Who is who?!

moving day

I am on my way to the good old COLORADO! Done with classes, thesis is next and then off to the real world! If anyone has a job for a MFA. Let me know! I could use it...really, I could.

Pin-Up girl

This is the last image in the series of scantily clad women. I wasn't sure who to make this be...so I'll let you decide who it is...suggestions? Anyway, enjoy! The final image for a friend at artistsmecca.com

Spider-Man Processes 4: Colors

The final Image of this piece...Color. This was done in photoshop with color fills for the highlights and the shadows. They are complimentary to each other, so the highlights are a desaturated yellow-orange and the shadows are a saturated blue-purple. This is the finished commissioned SpiderMan image.

Spider-Man Processes 3: Final Inks

Here is the final black and white image for the House of M Spider-Man commission. One thing to notice on this image, is how true I stayed to the thumbnail. Most of the black and white decision making was done in the thumbnail stage, so when I was doing the final illustration, all I had to figure out was the rendering style. Nothing else.
As far as tools go, I used a lot of technical pen on this since most of the background are tall skyscrapers. For Spidey himself, I used a tachikawa mapping pen (available on Jetpens.com) and a windsor newton series 7 size 1 brush.

The Damned by Cullen Bunn

This is a six page preview that was published by Oni Press for The Damned. It was written by Cullen Bunn and originally drawn by the amazing Brian Hurtt. I can only hope to work up to his level some day. I hope you enjoy my version.

Artists Mecca Interview

Artist's Mecca is an online art forum that has started in Southwest Atlanta.

I was interviewed by the Artist's Mecca crew last event. Check out the interview here: Jay Peteranetz Interview And sign up for Artist's Mecca here: Artist's Mecca

She Hulk

Since everyone does a picture of she hulk holding a massive bar bell. I figured I would too! Another for an artistsmecca.com artist.

One More

Here is another in my series of ladies. Here I played with different half tone values to see what would happen...take a look! Another one for an artistsmecca.com artist

Witchblade

So I just watched the first episode of the Witchblade anime on Netflix instant....that was a waste of about 25 minutes of my day. It was almost, and I say ALMOST, as bad as the live action version of the show from the late 1990s. I LOVE the comic, and I wish the rest of the entertainment media could find a way to do it justice....unless I missed something...anyone? All the girls that will be coming up are all commissions for a fellow artist on artistsmecca.com
