New Project
I'm doing all of the layouts first in this massive 400 page book.
It's only a little intimidating, right now I'm just enjoying the challenge to do a little everyday (as per usual M.O.).
Lots of thoughts about this, but at this point it's all I'm will to "leak" out.
I will say that I do hope lots of people will be able to enjoy some of the fruits of the labor within the year! But don't hold your collective breath!
Mon-el sketches
If I was responsible for rebooting this less than iconic dc superhero it might look something like this...don't ask me why. More inking practice...there can never be enough inking practice...

Recent Proposal for 50th Anniversary Unity Art Project
It would have been a hell of a lot of work if it had been accepted, in fact it's safe to say I would be working on it right now, at this very minute that I'm typing this, if it had been accepted.
The proposal that was adopted is outlined, in the inverse, under the first bullet.

Easter Egg Eggstravaganzzaa
Had a mess of fun this year painting up the eggs for Easter. What a great lasting pagan tradition, really the whole hunt ritual and egg coloring and rabbits and bright colored candy can quickly become pretty surreal. I plan on hiding more images like the Easter egg above around town next year. I'm also looking forward to building off what we learned this year, about egg coloring and fancy kits, next year. A lot of fun. I present these pictures for your enjoyment and my review before next years polychroming, Cheers!
