Title: “Vertiginous Our Love”
Finishing this “Paolo & Francesca” piece, just cleaning up some of the shapes now.
Paolo & Francesca were historical contemporaries of Dante and appeared in his “inferno,” more info here and here. The couple has appeared in many works of art over the centuries, inspired by their characterization in the “inferno”.
This is the latest cover I did For Dark Horse, for the book “The Occultist,” due out in December. More info is at CBR
I haven’t titled this one yet, I have one in mind that sounds like a proverb and another that’s more straight forward…”Young Claude’s Dinner Date”.
Info on the Dollhouse comic adaptation was just released in the last day or so. I created this cover shortly after I did the “Serenity: The Shepherd’s Tale” cover. This isn’t being released as an individual comic but is being bundled with the Dollhouse season 2 dvd release. More info here . Having been a fan of both Serenity and Dollhouse, I was really excited about providing art for their comic incarnations.
I finished off the Dark Horse cover and decided to go back to an old sketch. The colored part is still very much in the “slop” stage, so the shapes haven’t been refined and the colors are subject to change, depending on the background that gets used.
This is another WIP for the Westerly Strut sub-series. I wanted to add some scifi elements, a robot was my first thought, but then I had this Space Invaders style idea the other night.
This is a detail from my new series, “Dendriform”, which will contrast the synthetic-modern world with the natural world. The style will be more editorial than my regular digital paintings and I’ll probably be using a restricted palette. I also want to introduce some old experiments from college, specifically geometry and the human body.
Title: “An Uninvited Advance Engenders Swift Resolution”
I planned on using bees as a theme for the “Westerly Strut” subset to “Butterbroda”, but decided to go with the main series…at least for this one.

Title: “A Trembled Thread Through Our Hands”
I thought I could get away with breaking this into three images, but after experimenting, I decided that breaking up the thread wasn’t working…so I’ll be selling this print as one 15″x7″ image rather than three 5″x7″s
