My 'FOSTER' Art

My friend Brian asked me to contribute to an upcoming Anthology for his 'Foster' book! It's an eight page story and I may do a variant cover for it as well. Brian tweeted this page out already, so I'll share the before and after of the page. Click the link and check the review! The book is really great!

Drawing of the Day

Let's go shopping!

Drawing of the Day

I'm still bouncing around a story in my head about a princess on the run. Of course she would come across a Pirate!

Recent advertising art. Let's sell some tea people!

Even More Art by Garcia-Lopez

Two Garcia-Lopez drawings from the DC Comics Who's Who books.

I think it looks better in black and white! They lost a lot of detail when printed in color.

Drawing of the Day

Do you remember last years' winner? Me neither.

Father and Daughter?

I've noticed the similarities.

Art by Jim Lee

.

I like to look at other artists' work! When I first saw Jim Lee's pencils, I liked his energy and detailed pages. Take a look at some his earlier work on Uncanny X-Men

Advertising Art

More Filipino AD art. Color by Steve Buccellato Check his BLOG!

Advertising Art

I did some storyboards for an AD agency, trying to sell Cable TV to a Filipino audience. How might you do that? You can use celebrities or promote native language programming or target your pitch to the head of the family. The head of the family is usually the Grandmother. I picked up a few things working for them. Not much pay, but a good cultural education.

I have been waiting for the Expo train to open for about a year. In a city in love with the auto, this light rail is exactly what the people who live here need. I grew up in New York City and I know the benefits of using mass transit. Easier commute, spending less for gas, greater property value for those who own near a station.

My wife and I took the train and we find it good!

New Mutants By Bret Blevins

I have not been blogworthy lately, but let me make it up with a a few pages from Bret Blevins! I think he had a lot of fun working on The New Mutants. Great characters and you can see by pencil pages, the story had a lot going for it. I got these copies from the editor way back when. You can see the his balloon placement and Bret's notes as well!

More Garcia-Lopez!

Cap'n's Comics and I have been going back and forth with an appreciation of Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez! I have gone thru my flat files for a few more pages that I hope you will enjoy. Check his site here.
Right back at you!

Art by Lee Weeks

I loved the work that Lee Weeks did on Daredevil! He was following the Mazzuchelli run on the book and he did not stumble at all.

Art by Garcia-Lopez

Cap'n's Comicspost reminded me of some more Garcia-Lopez pencil scans I have! Take a look at the great composition and page layout.

Quaker Makeover

A subtle change with the iconic Quaker oats man. I think it's dopey. If they wanted to change him, just find another model for him. Read the article

Art by Garcia-Lopez

I've posted four pages from a Green Lantern backup story, penciled by Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez. I love this guys art!
