My entry for 'A Feast for the Eyes.' My internet capabilities are fully restored, so look for a blitz of content here soon.

A Feast for the Eyes

My former professor, Barry Fitzgerald, is throwin' an art show for his wife's business. You should go in check it out. There's contributions from a lot of cool folks, like my good friend the very talented Julia Icenogle and yours truly. Opening reception is tonight from 6:00-8:00. (Sorry for the late notice. Been in moving flux for a bit). Otherwise, the display runs for a full month. So go check it out. It's good art, food, and probably karma.

Creative Quarterly

As I mentioned earlier, I had the good fortune to land a couple pieces in Creative Quarterly Journal #12. It's out on theoretical news stands everywhere and actual news stands somewhere as well.  

Happiness

Creative Quarterly, a national magazine for emerging artists/illustrators/designers what have you, came out with its list of winners today, and it looks like I got some pieces in. Huzzah! The website is apparently still under construction, but when it's ready, I'll let you guys know.

That which is this blog.

In short, it's two things: 

1) Classwork

2) Archetype

What classwork means is pretty obvious, the other probably less so.

Many already know I've been working on a series of graphic novels for half a decade or so. That's Archetype. Thus far, after the ill-fated but "educational" draft way back in high school, it hasn't been anything but planning.

But it's been long enough, and I think I may finally have the experience and structure to make it work. I'm sketching out the first issue right now, with an ETA of--well, we'll see. I'll toss out some images from the character primer and some work in progress as it goes along.

Anyway, please, feel free to comment and share. Part of the reason I'm doing this is get ideas on how to improve, so, please, let me know what you think.
