The Earl of Impudence

The Earl of Impudence. One of my favorite recent illustrations, this was for the Ryan C. Thomas tale, The Earl of Imprudence, in my anthology “The Joke is on Mankind”,
The whole story had a very cosmic horror, Twilight Zone vibe, where researchers in an earth laboratory are transported to an alien planet hosting alien runes…with, as you can see, face-melting consequences….
You can get the novel here: https://tinyurl.com/454czep6

Nyarlathotep

As a huge Lovecraft fan, I never pass up the opportunity to inject some of his horror cosmology whenever possible.

All of my novels are heavily illustrated, and this is for my cosmic horror anthology “The Never Dead”.

Appearing near the end of Patrick Lacey’s tale “Bad Sounds”, it pictures cultists gathering around a stonehenge-inspired monument where they worship Nyarlathotep.

India ink on Bristol Board.

My anthology is available on Amazon at

Extraneous

Extraneous.

Comic book style full page illustration for Black Static Magazine.

Black Static Magazine out of the UK, formerly titled “The Third Alternative” and relaunched in 2007, first contacted me in 2011 to illustrate one of their stories. Entitled Extraneous, I used the old school method of elaborate coloring (before computer coloring became the go-to method), of printing the illustration on watercolor paper, using watercolors, then printing the illustration also on a transparency, and laying that overtop of the painting so the lines popped back out. I remember Mike Zeck doing this back in the day, and the method always stuck with me.
