A major influence on me as a young kid was staying up late on Saturday Nights and watching THE GHOUL, a wacked out horror movie host. One of his re-accuring characters was Froggy, who was abused,blown up, beaten up and just plain suffered at the hands of The Ghoul. Dave Ivey was the man that made Froggy and was the Art Director for The Ghoul Show was at the convention and I got to chat with him and hang with Froggy for a bit. It was a huge thrill for me!

CONVENTION TIME IS NEAR!

The snow has melted, the healthcare has started and the settling in to my life back into my hometown of Flint,MI has taken hold. At this moment I'm not prepared to go into too much detail about things til we get a more even grasp of it, so it's time to focus this blog on my artwork again. Between doctor's visits and other things, there hasn't been much time for as much artwork as I'd like, especially stuff to get done for the upcoming Flint Comix Con on April 13th. So, this next week will be pretty busy for me. I just hope I'm physically ready for the convention. I really need to be, because I love doing conventions so much and desperately need the contact with other comic & art fans and a day of escape from reality. So, I look forward to seeing you all there and meeting new fans of the genre.
Since it's a comic book convention and veering more towards family entertainment than the horror conventions, I've been trying to focus on doing more superhero and cartoon styled subject matter. Course, I find myself still drawn towards the weird and darker characters so, oops!
This weekend I'll be trying to get everything priced and organized for the convention, that way I have the rest of the week to finish up more pieces up for sale.
Here's just a small smidgeon of new pieces that will be for sale at my table,plus so much more!!!
