Inktober 52 2023 Day #3: Shadow
INKTOBER 52 2023 Day #3: SHADOW. A little foreshadowing of the future for a young Toby Wan Kenobi…except not, like, all dark and evil. Yes, I realize that makes this a bit of a jumbled homage, but who cares? It’s Star Wars. In case anyone missed it, I am a huge Star Wars fan.
Inktober 52 2023 Day #2: Puppet
INKTOBER 52 2023 Day #2: PUPPET. Okay, a bit literal, but, how fun? This image gives rise to all kinds of deep questions about who is actually running the show in my Brain. Like so many in my generation, the Muppets and the creative geniuses behind them were a ubiquitous presence on television and
Inktober 52 2023 Day #1: Build
INKTOBER 52 2023 Day #1: BUILD. I basically grew up at a beach during the summers, Briggs Beach, to be specific. It is such an idyllic, almost magical location that I am forever grateful to have access to. It has played a critical role in the lives of my family for generations. It is
Revery: First Contact
This is the first piece of concept art I have done for Revery in a very long time. About a decade, actually. This story has been in my head for a lot longer than that. The dreams that served as the foundation and opening for the story I had back in high school. I
The Warlock Series Book 5
The final cover we decided to have at night. This one required a bunch of repainting, but not nearly as much as it could have, thanks to some of the other strategies I employed from the beginning (like the way I managed the layers and made use of File Objects). One of the challenges
The Warlock Series Book 4
The staff on cover 4 belongs to the original main character from L.S. Gagnon's first series: Thea from the Witch Series. It was on the very first cover I drew for the author waaaay back in...2013ish? I was fairly new to digital painting at the time, and her hiring me was really my first
The Warlock Series Book 3
Cover 3 sees the addition of the main character's robe. It's the identical design to what I had drawn on him on the original cover for book 1 years ago (she was pretty specific about the way the robe looked). I got to explore some fun things with this one, too. I added a
The Warlock Series Book 2
On book 2 I added the main character's sword. The author sent me an image of what she envisioned it looking like, but I realized it was from an existing fantasy series. I asked her if she wanted me to design her a sword, and she enthusiastically said yes. I enjoy designing fantasy weapons,
The Warlock Series Book 1
Author L.S. Gagnon wanted to completely revamp the covers of her latest books in the Warlock Series. I had done the first book a few years ago, but not the follow ups. This is a completely different direction from the original, trying to highlight one of the most important aspects of her stories, which
PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2022: Ax
This would totally work...if you remembered to sharpen your plunger.
PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2022: Barbell
A plunger that size is bound to be and the heavy side. Plus, training with unbalanced loads is a great way to introduce a new challenge!
PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2022: Baseball Glove
A plunger that size is bound to be and the heavy side. Plus, training with unbalanced loads is a great way to introduce a new challenge.
Please let me know what you think, it makes my brain happy.
