This is a color test for a much larger painting that I did several years ago. The idea was from an old WWI era song I heard called The Roses of Picardy. My mom has the original painting, because she liked it.

Begining my post-Further Confusion artwork upload. I've always loved resplendant quetzals; the bright colors and long tail make them a natural subject for art.

This should be self-explanitory :) This will be the only reply drawing I'll be able to do, but I really enjoyed the other drawings put up. Thanks to the other Yerf Survivors for being good sports.

A picture someone should be able to get for cheeeep at Anthrocon. I'm not happy with how it came out, so I'll be putting a low price on it in the art show. My scanner is getting worse, and it came out 'way too dark. Now if one of those 2 people who promised me a new scanner would actually sent me one.....

The inked version of one of the pictures from the portfolio I did last year. This is Jack Salem's younger brother Richie, as a teenager. Jack tried to kill him when he was a baby, but was obviously unsucessfull. Richie's parents and older brother never talk about Jack.

Do you know about the flying rods? I thought it was a bunch of you-know-what, but after looking at the footage, I'm not so sure. I don't know what the heck they are, but they seem to be everywhere. Check out http://www.roswellrods.com/ and break out your video equipment!

A sketchbook picture from this past ConiFur. David Hopkin's character Drip runs into Simone. Their exchange won't make any sense unless you're familiar with both his work and mine, but since this picture actually turned out decent, I figured I'd upload it anyways.

Jack Salem's younger (by 18 years) brother Richie. Although the only role he played in the story was a point of conflict between Jack and his parents, and a target of an unsuccessful murder attempt, people wanted to know more about him. So here's a picture, showing him in his mid-teens with a couple school friends. Marker and colored pencil.

Jack B. Salem. Happens to be Custer J. Winston's best friend. Don't ask, it doesn't even make sense to him sometimes.

A plate from the color portfolio I did for last CF. This is the old cat that employed Salem for a while. She's based on a cat I had in childhood. Simone c. 1998 Roz Gibson. Scan by Ron Johnson.

A recent commission for CrissCross. Doing this one pretty much killed my light green and blue markers. The bird is an upland sandpiper.

Who will be the Yerf Survivor? Trap a bunch of characters in the middle of nowhere, have an annoying host force them do pointless games and challenges, feed them nothing but boiled rice, and see what happens! Who will get voted out, and who will win? I sure don't know. Drawn in Flash. Character creators contact me if you want a bigger version of this image.

How do you say goodbye to someone who's shared your life for over 10 years? Who's been with you through good times and bad...through 2 moves, 3 jobs, marriage, accidents, the deaths of a family member and friends, through an earthquake and El Nino, who only offered unconditional love and the pleasure of being able to share her life with yours. In the end, when cancer had ravaged her to just a shadow of what she was, all I could offer her was an endless sleep. If there is a kitty heaven, I hope to see her there again some day. Goodbye, Mao.

An illustration for a forthcoming Huzzah article about cryptozoology. This is the Queensland marsupial tiger.

This is from last year's San Diego ComiCon program book. Every year the con covers several themes in the book and artists who register with the con as professionals are invited to do a picture on any of the themes. Last year one of the themes was "Elfquest's 20th Anniversary", so I did this picture of Timmorn Yellow-eyes. The final image was computer toned. There was also an Elf in peril under the big animal, but I chopped it out to make the picture Yerf-able. I won't have a picture in this year's con program book, because I thought all the themes were boring. Oh well.

A picture from Huzzah last year, showing various reactions to said film. Dwight actually liked it a lot more than this picture indicates.

More Photoshop practice, trying to do a character card. Rage is copyright and TM by White Wolf, blah blah, ect. ect.

And the flipside of the same card.

Another comission. That's supposed to be me. The idea of me hauling around a big gun in military clothes is pretty unrealistic (okay--VERY unrealistic), but it's what the guy wanted. The big bug in the foreground is a velvet ant, quite common around here. Compare this picture to http://www.yerf.com/howashaw/tamar1st.jpg by Shawntae Howard. I think that was commisioned by the same person, giving Shawntae the same instructions I got. It's interesting to see how 2 different artists approached the same subject. Ink and watercolor.

Another species line-up picture. This one wasn't as hard to do as the weasel one, because I wasn't trying to do *every* species and could choose ones I had good reference on. Done in markers and colored pencil. Scan by Ron Johnson.

Woodwarblers. A small picture of the whole thing, and a detail. For bird enthusiasts--to identify the top one in the detail you'll need to refer to an area of the world James Bond covered (And I don't mean the spy!!)Only serious bird geeks will know the answer to that. Markers and colored pencil.

A commission from last year. Some of it hand-drawn and scanned, some drawn in Flash. Colored in Photoshop.

A detail from a VERY large picture I did for CF10. It took me quite a while to get this one done. Markers,colored pencil, paint and a whole lotta late nights.
