If you don't have any Drew Struzan posters or walls to display them on, I highly recommend The Art of Drew Struzan (2010), a beautiful book that showcases Drew's work and includes his own commentaries on his art. π

October means it's that time again. And as proud as I am of my many animated works, DEAD SPACE DOWNFALL is hands down one of my proudest.
"Welcome to 1985, Mister Hex"
From DC Challenge #2 written by Len Wein & penciler Chuck Patton.
With inks by Mike DeCarlo & colors by Adrienne Roy.
Too many memories to choose from but Len & I had a hoot dreaming this part up. Inspired by that scene in Superman the movie (ifykyk) and my nightly walks in NYC at the time.

HARRIET TUBMAN: DEMON SLAYER.
An abandoned cover that my co-artist, "Inky Fingaz"/Art Nichols, inked & colored, then gave me this digital copy as a gift.
Sadly the original piece went lost after his passing.
Given our current climate, we could sure use a demon slayer now more than ever.

Hope to see you there!
This is the second rough pencil sketch I done for an animated Saturday morning Swamp Thing show.
Unlike the syndicated miniseries, the pitch was for an ecology based, adventure series with supernatural overtones. (A year before Capn' Planet)
This piece will also be up for auction soon on Heritage.

This piece (11x17) will be going up for auction soon on Heritage.
A round of quick warm up, rough pencil sketches & thumbnails, working again towards something mighty savage.
