Denver Comic Con and Pride Month

So, Denver Comic Con is uniting with Denver Pride.  And in the wake of the shootings over the weekend, I wanted to get something put together as an exclusive print for this weekend, but ran out of time.  I will have this print available at my booth this weekend.  It's Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy celebrating their relationship.  Come see me at booth 217 to pick one up!

Hard Rock Cafe and Denver Comic Con

TWO POSTS IN ONE DAY?!  I got approval to share this today, so here it is.  I am doing the official Denver Comic Con Hard Rock Cafe T-shirt for this year's Denver Comic Con.  This image is going to be on the back of the Colorado Hard Rock shirts and available ONLY at Denver Comic Con this year.  I will be at the Hard Rock booth for about an hour each day, so come see me and get a shirt signed!  If you get the shirt, but don't see me at their booth, come see me at Booth 217!  I will have a full schedule of my weekend available when it's finalized!

Actuated Puzzle Box

This is the final piece in my Colorado Horror Statue series for this year.  Denver Comic Con is upon us and I need to focus on preparing my booth.  So, here it is, the actuated stairs that are in the Alameda Public Art District here in Denver.  I will have four of these this year with more to come in future years.  Come see me at booth 217 to pick yours up this weekend!

HULK SILHOUETTE!!

As the main event of the year: Denver Comic Con, approaches.  I have been receiving a TON of requests for illustrations.  Which has been great, but it's hurting my personal production a bit.  That's OK, because I'm getting paid. This is an illustration for an ad that will be appearing in the Westword next week.  I can't wait to see the finished product and I'll post it when it is printed.  ENJOY!!! and see you next week at Denver Comic Con booth 217!!

The Dancers and Denver Comic COn

I am adding to my Colorado Horror Statue series (because now it's a series).  These are the dancers outside the Denver Center for Performing Arts.  They have been re-imagined as Ghost Face from Scream and Slender Man.  This will be available at Denver Comic Con this year, as well as reprints of Freddy Horse and Jason Bear from 2014, and hopefully one more Colorado Horror Statue...if I can get it finished.  I hope you enjoy this!  See you at Denver Comic Con BOOTH 217!!!

Magicians Must Die #5: THE FINAL ISSUE!

Let me tell you about one of the best projects I have been able to work on:  Magicians Must Die.  For those of you, that have followed this amazing journey, please take a minute to head to World Card Experts' store and pick up this amazing final issue.  For those of you new to Magicians Must Die, it is a world where Magicians are bored performing for others.  They kidnap others and put them in the illusions they create to see if they CAN escape.  If they don't, the magicians get an entertaining evening of death.  The story follows a card master and his sister that were kidnapped by the Magicians and taught the ways of their illusions.  There is plenty of action, a great world building introduction, and some great creatures and characters.  Please pick up your copy, or your set, of Magicians Must Die, today!  We will also have the entire run available at Denver Comic Con June 17-19, at Booth 215 and 217!!

Denver Comic Con 2016

So, I will be at booth 217 this year for Denver Comic Con.  I will be sitting next to World Card Experts and Magicians Must Die!   We have the last issue of Magicians Must Die available and will probably have a set available as well.
Above you see the cover for Denver Comic Con and Pop Culture Classroom's 2015 annual report and it will be in the Souvenir book for this year's show.  COME SEE ME AND GET THE PAGES SIGNED!!  I will also have posters of the cover.

HOLY COW!!! A NEW POST!

It has been a while since I've posted anything up here.  The biggest reason for this...EVERYTHING I AM WORKING ON has an NDA.  Oh well, what I did find though, is a link to a video from a comic anthology where I had a story published 5 years ago.  Just wanted to let you see it, oh! and my work is featured in the video! Check it out.  And stay tuned.  I'll have some work up here soon!  PROMISE!!!

SUPERBOWL CHAMPIONS!!!

So, I repurposed this drawing from the World Series drawing series I completed and made it for the Superbowl.  It was just TOO perfect.  I am hoping to have some of these at the Broncos rally tomorrow to give away.  PM me on Facebook or Twitter to find me if you want one.

5280 Geek

Fresh off the New Year and already with some amazing new friends.  Such as 5280 Geek, the Geekiest podcast in Denver.  These are a great group of people and I was honored enough to get to draw their new T-shirt design, facebook cover photo and help with their brand identity this year.  Thank you to Daniel Sharner, Zac Skellington Conley, Thao Le, Mindy Conley, and Rebecca Ann.  Keep up the Geekdom!!!

Patty cake, patty cake, baker's man.

Sometimes you get some really strange commissions.....This was very fun to do. This is a Christmas present.  I can squeeze some commissions in if anybody needs one.  Let me know!!!

Digital Painting

Remember when I was trying to learn to be a stronger digital painter?  Well,  I gave up on that at one point.  It was for multiple reasons.  Somewhere near the top of the list was major frustration in getting the look I wanted.
Anyway, I got this commission to do a portrait (as seen above) and they wanted to digitally painted.  So, here I am struggling with the frustration of digital painting in Photoshop, when I stumbled upon a new brush (to me, not to photoshop) and it did EXACTLY what I wanted.  So, after about four failed attempts at getting this to look right, I got it to look right.  So here is a successful digital portrait for a relocating boss.  Who was apparently loved by his company.
