Northlanders!

So you Might have read on the Vertigo blog, (or my Twitter or Facebook account) that I'll be drawing a two issue Northlanders story arc entitled "The Girl in the Ice". I'm so psyched to be working with Brian again, and I'm psyched for this sick as fuck Massimo Carnevale cover: check it out!


SERIOUSLY.

Lots to talk about, hope I'll have some more updates for you guys soon!

Oh you might remember I've been talking about Secret Project for a while- no it's not Killjoys (more on that soon though~!) -...

Trees

Last month it was water, this month it's some trees... I'm finishing up "Secret Project" this week (that explains the mosaic bit at the bottom there), but because of all the secrecy I can't post much from what I'm working on! But I want to keep updating this blog more often with art, so here's a WIP of some trees I made today.



This new project is over 60 full color illustrations, and 90% photoshop, which is really strange for me! I enjoy color, and I have a nice tablet and everything, but I...

Ghosts in Armour

So while I was hanging out in Wales, I got to meet a group of amazing artists in Newport, who were setting up for 'Ghosts in Armour', an exhibition at the Riverfront. Unfortunately I didn't get to stay for the private view (which is tonight, so if you are in the area check it out!) but I did get to see them set up for the show.


'Ghosts in Armour' is a a mixed artistic response to a space, a time and a declining Welsh Industry, featuring everything from photography, sculpture, paintings, music,...

Summer Travel Recap

After a busy summer, I find myself back in NY with autumn just around the corner. I spent a good chunk of time in England and Wales, Norway and Italy; I met so many amazing people and have a lot of thanks to give out. Earlier this summer I had the pleasure of taking a trip to Italy with my good friend Fabio Moon, we hit up Rome, Florence, Bologna and Venice - Thanks to Giovanni Simoncelli, Jacopo Camagni, Marco Felicioni, and Riccardo Burchielli for hanging out and being awesome. I also was a...

Gallery Show!

Orbital Comics in London will be having an exhibition of my original artwork, including illustrations to comic pages from August 20th to September 20th! There will be some limited silk screens and postcard sets for sale as well.

The show's opening is Friday, August 20th from 8pm-10pm- I'll be there, and if that's not enough there will be some free drinks too- so stop by and hang out if you are in town!



I'd like to give a special thanks to Tom Humberstone, who helped organize the exhibition. I ...

Water

I was tweeting about this the other day, about making some water for this secret project I've been going on about. Well here you go: some water.



I'll try to post more often.
Glub glub!

Deathsnake

Done for a CBLDF sketch card, although I didn't end up going to SDCC this year!

Deathsnake, from my dearly departed series East Coast Rising. I'll try to post more here, but it's hard since everything I'm doing is for something that I can't tell anybody about! Also I've been discouraged with all the spam comments my poor neglected blog gets. What a pain in the butt.
