I couldn’t wait to tackle this commission from David Holden. Unfortunately The Green Hornet never had much of a “Rogues Gallery.” He mainly fought the mob on their own turf. But David’s inspired suggestion was a delight to draw. It’s a great idea: The Hornet is in Gotham City, trying to infiltrate the local mob. …

This is a work-in-progress from a skills enrichment project I’ve been working on. It’s a reimagining of Norse Mythology, with Thor and Loki in their late teens. As a life-long fan of animation, it’s been a lot of fun working from this angle. I’m hoping to show more as the project progresses. 

I met a wonderful family at a comic con in Des Moines, Iowa. They had brought their dad to the convention as a birthday present. He is a veterinarian and a comic fan. Months later, his daughter contacted me about doing a drawing of her dad examining The Creature from the Black Lagoon. She said …

I was very humbled when Luke Gygax asked me to paint this image for the 10th Anniversary of the gaming convention he founded to honor the legacy of his father, Gary Gygax, the father of Dungeons & Dragons.

I love drawing creatures… and dragons are particularly fun subjects. Often, during the rare, quiet lulls at conventions, I’ll start a sketch. Sometimes, these doodles turn into something special. This is a favorite cons sketch!

After reuniting with many of my colleagues from the old, TSR Art Department at Gary Con in 2014, Luke Gygax contacted me with a great idea for the artwork for the following year’s show!

This piece began as an homage challenge among an old, artists’ email group I was part of in the early 2000s. The idea was for artists to do a tribute to a Frazetta painting that had an impact on them. The sketch and early work for this piece sat as an unfinished file for years, …

It’s been a lot of fun getting back into the world of role-playing games after so many years away. Alex Kammer was kind enough to commission this piece for his great and growing gaming convention
