Crossing Paths

A portfolio piece along D&D lines- may still offer in some tweaks so critical feedback is welcome :)
Our heroes come across a wounded orc- old, hunted and injured, but a mighty warrior of his kind and not to be taken lightly.

Things from the Junkyard

Some more sneak peeks fro Ms Doody's Art Show III.

The show opens this Friday night and is open all weekend :)

Come one come all!

Some WIPs for the Marvellous Ms Doody 3

Having taken part in the first two Ms Doody exhibitions I am taking a slightly different tack with the subject matter this time- the pieces are slightly more introspective and thoughtful than the usual cute stuff, but perhaps this is a natural evolution. Anyway, comments and critique are welcome.

Website Launched & Many Other Newses

Hello all from the far reaches of cyberspace.

I have been most remiss in posting, which is made all the worse because so much has been happening. I submitted a piece for the Schaffas 2 exhibition which you can see at http://www.screamdance.com/schaffas_pages/schaffas2_62.html as well as all the other crazy entries- some of which are outstanding! There is also a Schaffas Artbook which has photos of all the schaffas from the two exhibitions.

Tickle Me Zoo, the childrens' book I am illustrating is in the final stages of painting- just doing the covers. Ben Long and I recieved second place at the CYA writers' and illustrators' conference for Graphic Novels and Illustrated Children's Books.
