Here’s some more concept work for my new bird book. Unlike my last book-- Gwango’s Lonesome Trail, the new one will feature ink illustrations. Because of this I’ve been working the old ink pen like mad lately, trying to come up with a line style I’m happy with.
In other news, this week I have an article featured on the website Roadside Peek. It’s about my encounters with a bizarre little roadside attraction called the Lonely Bones.
So if you’re an aficionado of prehistoric dinosaurs and humdinger tales, click here to have a gander!
Man, I'm really excited about this project you're working on... as well as Gwango. They will both be excellent, I know. Nice article... it will be my read while I'm at work today ;)

ReplyDeleteThat birdman is TOO COOL for words!
ReplyDeleteFan-freekin'-tastic. The birds you've been conjuring up are magnifico. The subject could be anything though - you're style is completely fresh. Off the heezy. I'm done embarrassing myself now.
