AN EVEN LONGER TIME AGO…

AN EVEN LONGER TIME AGO…

Brand new set of Prototype Star Wars Original Art Cards available now! I was lucky enough to help illustrate a bunch of Star Wars kids books and comics with my pal and Canadian comix legend Ken Steacy in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Unfortunately all my original art from those projects were long since snapped up by eager collectors. But it’s been fun since then doing Star Wars themed commissions and other original art to meet the demand. So in that vein here’s the latest batch - three original Star Wars Art Cards, mini 2.5” x 3.5” one of a kid paintings featuring prototype characters from the early preproduction days of “The Star Wars” in 1973-1975 inspired by the work of Ralph McQuarrie, Alex Tavoularis and John Mollo. Gouache and ink, over pencil on acid-free black illustration board: $80 each or $220 for all three. (upper left - early Stormtrooper design, upper right - early rebel pilot design, lower - early Darth Vader design)

“HERO UP” COMIC BOOK COVER ART & COMIC COMBO

Hero Up! was a comic book project created and written by 12 year cancer survivor Zachi Josiah Telesha, who alsways wanted to be a comic book writer. Based on his ideas and suggestions I created the art for the superhero team and their super villain adversaries. The project was spearheaded by the fine folks at Rodale publishing. The comic consist of bios of the team and bad guys, with full page character illustrations of each. I definitely channeled my love for Jack Kirby and Bruce Timm on this project.
