Inktober 2023 Day #6: Golden (Ratio)
INKTOBER 2023 Day #6: GOLDEN. “Leonardo Da Vinci has always been one of my favorite Renaissance era artists.

His anatomical illustrations were fascinating. He
Inktober 2023 Day #5: (Bit) Map
INKTOBER 2023 Day #5: (BIT) MAP. “Not a ‘map’, but a ‘bitmap’. Yeah. This one was tedious. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with the off-the-wall interpretation, but, ouch. There may have been an easier way to pull this off. I probably DIDN’T need to grid the page off every sixteenth of an inch

Inktober 2023 Day #3: Path
INKTOBER 2023 Day #3: PATH. “Art is weird. I’ve always been a nostalgic kinda guy. Even from a very young age, I remember experiencing a longing for moments in time that couldn’t be recaptured. I would feel it when I would get to the end of a good book, remembering the beginning of the

Inktober 2023 Day #1: Dream
INKTOBER 2023 Day #1: DREAM. “Inktober 2023 kicks off with a repeat prompt from Inktober 52 2023: dream. I’m not complaining, the whole concept of ‘dreams’ is pretty big for me. In addition to having some pretty vivid and wacky dreams, I’ve always been a daydreamer, and that has been a huge inspiration for
Inktober 52 2023 Day #39: Dream
INKTOBER 52 2023 Day #39: DREAM. ”Here’s another less-than-obvious interpretation of a prompt. Meet Guan and Jeeto, two members of the ‘Rogue Dream Squad’ from my forever-in-the-works graphic novel ‘Revery’. The Cobblies live in another dimension, existing symbiotically with dreams. When things go according to plan, Cobblies redirect the energy comets that fuel dreams

INKTOBER 52 2023 Day #38: HARVEST. “Okay, this one is going to need a bit of an explanation. I know I try to steer clear of the obvious, but I think I’m nowhere near obvious this time. I had a hard time deciding what angle to come at this prompt from. I just wasn’t

Go get one here and then leave a review: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1733734716?ref_=ast_author_dp) I also added several related shirts to my Etsy store.

Odin’s Giant Sequoia
Since it was finally received, I can post this image I worked on a few weeks ago of a giant sequoia. It was a gift (in the form of a tshirt and a hoodie) for my tree-loving middle son. I have always loved trees, particularly redwoods and giant sequoias. The fact that they are
