Fave News

I am back and quick catchup

Journal Entry: Sun Jul 5, 2009, 8:25 PM
Designed by =edmunn


Short summery of the past week.

I don't know if I can review all of the messages, images and say thank you for all of the faves. There are just too many ( 563..in total..)

Ok, I am getting really busy so I don't know if I have time to post much work. I don't think I have time to do much digital though I do have one image that is part of a calandar that I might do digitally.....my latest oil paintings have impressed some folks and that is what I am getting commissions for lately. That being said, they do take time so that time will be spent working on them, not on here or even playing games. I guess it is a plan all coming together because I have 8 years and then I will be free to do my freelance and gallery work as I have always wanted to...and have my house paid for to boot! So I am really concentrating on the contacts and getting a start now and I seem to be building steam with commissions and selling in galleries. That is where my oils come in...I am getting some works together for a gallery in New Jersy and am in touch with other galleries now as their shows are being planned so I will probably slow down on the DMC and the FF works and concentrate on the gallery minded work. I am still interested in the Rogue Gallery and getting it opened also. I will try to post what I can but some commissioned works are private and the owners want them that way.

This past week I have been commissioned to do four large portraits in graphite for some people out of state. I am sorry but they must be done quickly and sent off so I will not be on checking things so I am sure the backlog will only grow on the messages.

The trip went fine and I am also going to be doing a couple of portraits due to showing my work during the trip.

Erik has been accepted into EAST Inititive where he can use the DMC4 character animation program for game development and he is pretty excited about that.

I Have a BA in Fine Art and in Art Education with a minor in Commercial Art ( now called Graphic Design for you young whippersnappers). I have studied drawing and painting privately under Delena Dotson and Richard Barton [link] I work with Arkansas Tech University as Mentor and Cohort Educator. In the past I have taught night classes at the University, community courses and private art lessons during my own spare time.

I freelance and have had my work to appear in such magazines as the science fiction and fantasy art magazine as Imagine FX [link] a companion in Zeor [link] I have designed cover art for the vampire romance novel series by Lisa Young and am currently working on two other covers for the series plus a cover for a yet unnamed series. I have also illustrated the children's book,"The Youngest Fairy Princess."

I have designed the CD cover for the audio book, " The Vampire's Friend" and the cover art for,"Alien Master", by Jacqueline Lichtenburg along with various works for the Sime~Gen site and have my works on items for the Sime~Gen universe sold on Cafepress and at science fiction and fantasy conventions around the world. My works have also been on cards for Summoners, GamingPlayArts and FantasySoftImages games, and Chemical7.

I do TONS of freelance and have designed T shirts, brochures, posters, menus, tattoos and tombstones besides the ever popular portrait.

I designed the three bedroom home that I live in and am very happy with the design and also happy with knowing it is one of a kind. The layout is different from all of the darned plans I studied before I decided I could do this myself.

Currently I am working on some larger oil paintings for the Rouge Artists Gallery when we open, and am looking at other galleries to sell in while doing various commissions. I am also working on some ink interior works for science fiction, fantasy and horror magazines and have just finished my first horror short story. I hope to write a few more so I can do a collection of " The Weird and The Strange," or something like that.
