Some SUPERMONSTERS illustrated pages...

Here are some Illustrated pages from the Supermonsters project I'm working on. These will bridge the Supermonster series of Paintings I did. Why do this? Why not just fully painted storybook OR painted cover/comicbook? I'm doing the peanut butter cup equation... gettin' these "two great tastes and making them taste great together!" It also falls under the "Let your passion fuel your Purpose" idea(Hey, that's from the latest IDIOT ENGINE:) I'm passionate about Supermonster Paintings AND Comics so I'm using 'em to Fuel a story! Blast off!

IDIOT ENGINE ep 36 Passion and how it relates to our Artistic Purpose!

A big Thank you goes out to Storyboard Artist LUIS ESCOBAR and Artist/Self-publisher JAVIER HERNANDEZ for helping me triple team the latest ENGINE! . It's a scenic trip through the topic of "Passion and how it relates to one's Artistic Purpose" so pace this one out folks!

IDIOT ENGINE ep 35: The Suspension of Disbelief!

Me and Publisher KEITH RAINVILLE finish up our talk on "The Suspension of Disbelief" as it pertains to movies, comics, pro-wrestling and Jerzy Shore! A big "Thank You" to Keith for coming back again this episode (If you missed the last one, Check it out!) and taking this one all the way Home!

The Suspension of Disbelief is something we deal with everyday in the modern media and definitely worth giving some thought to, so if you get a chance, give a listen!

Art is more than ... Art!

Just finished doing a digital mock up for the title page for the gallery section of the project I'm working on and it's feeling just about right. It's one thing to make art but another thing to present it, either in print or on the web or in a slide show or etc.
It can be just as satisfying to design a composition for paste up as it is finishing a piece of art. It's all art after all just different mediums.

Recycling old paintings...

So I reworked an old painting "Mr. Bacon" and turned it into "Green spiderweb of Skull Island" (Yup, I just made up that title...) Feels a little derivative, but that's what that painting is. If you looked at it's DNA the "Derivative" chromosome would be present... Don't deny your painting it's true identity!

More Painted Supermonsters!

Yup! I'm still having a Blast plugging away at my latest SUPERMONSTERS project~
