Update 11/29/07

5 new images in the Main Gallery.

All five are from a program I just finished Illustrating for Ryan Partnership and their client Englert Metal Manufacturing. Its a fun and cool Super-Hero Ad campaign, based around their Heroic mascot METAL MAN. The ads spotlight the heroes mission to offer the Economical and Ecological rewards of metal as an alternative to more dirty and costly traditional materials.

Recently wrapped up a fun project creating a cover and 3 interior illustrations for a young teens adventure book, called John Fatsramp And The Dakota 3000 Challenge. Its a great story in the Tom Swift tradition with a contemproary sci fi updating. Cool stuff ! You can check out my contributions to the book over in the Main Gallery. You can check out the book and pick up a copy over at Amazon.com.

Well the site has been way over due for an update. So I have cleaned things up a bit, changed the headers and navagation a little and added a video game gallery. I have been creating allot of game oriented art lately and it seemed to make sense that it have its own gallery. Im a big fan of the Halo series and play quite regularly. So be sure to take a peek at the Halo gallery within the Games area. Master Chief and his Needler gun can take you there right now.
