This Saturday and Sunday, August 5&6, I will be in the artist alley of the REALLY COOL COMIC CON in Flint, Michigan at the Dort Financial Center! I will have original artwork I've created on display and for sale, and I'll be drawing caricatures, cartoon and comic book characters all weekend! You can see what this convention has to offer HERE.
The RCCC is a convention I always look forward to being a part of. Great energy, happy public and a very positive experience!
I just finished a new Popeye series painting of Olive Oyl. 8x10 canvas. It was a quickie painting. I'll have it for sale in my Etsy shop soon (it'll take a while for shipping: it has to dry).
I JUST set up a store on Etsy, so it's easier to buy my artwork! You can view it HERE, and there's a link to the RIGHT ---->
Although I am available for commission art, I also have a LOT of work just sitting around. Here are a few. Sizes and prices vary. Contact me if interested in anything.
I found this drawing I did in my high school art class almost 30 years ago. I drew it sometime between 1992 and 1995. Just graphite pencil on paper. We had to wrap the artwork in plastic, hence the reflections.
The other day news broke that comic book legend John Romita Sr passed away at the age of 93. He's famously known as the guy who took over The Amazing Spider-Man comic after original artist Steve Ditko left. Romita was integral to shaping the looks and characteristics of Spider-Man and the other characters in the book.
I drew a tribute to Mr. Romita, inspired by the famous panel where Peter Parker gave up Spidey in Amazing Spider-Man #50 . This is the issue:
I've been painting a David Lee Roth era Van Halen tribute portrait with the intention to sell. It's very close to done. It's oil on 20x16 canvas. I charge by size for up to 3 subjects. 16x20 drawing or painting is $320 plus shipping and handling.
Today I met the legendary Christopher Lloyd at the Motor City Comic Con today and gave him the painting of him from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" I painted for him. He's been one of my favorite actors for decades.
I also met 2 of the main stars of "PSYCH" (one of my and my family's favorite shows), Timothy Omundson and Maggie Lawson, and had great conversations with both.
Due to circumstances, I didn't get to draw or paint anything for them before the convention, and the trip to the convention was very last minute, so I had nothing to gift them.
I drew these two drawings for Maggie Lawson and Timothy Omundson while at the convention in the food court between meeting Miss Lawson and the PSYCH panel.

It's been a slow process, but I finished the 35"x24" graphite drawing of Van Halen circa 1995!
