About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: New England, United States

I am a Hugo award-winning fantasy/SF artist who works on both publishing projects and film concept work(such as Jimmy Neutron and most recently, The Ant Bully) but I have a passion for landscape work, small paintings and exploring the properties of paint. This blog will mostly showcase my "painting-for-the-day" as kind of a personal voyage. I'll also be inserting sketches,photos and ideas of projects I am working on, that I can, when I can, so look for those every so often(usually as paint is drying!)

When Life is Lumley!!!


Cthulhu(BUT REAL and LIVE!!)
I'm just surrounded by Brian Lumley. Top pic is the new cover to Brian's new Necroscope adventure in "the Lost Years" time- HARRY AND THE PIRATES, done for Solaris Books in the UK. Lots of fun as always. The middle image is a reminder that at www.subterraneanpress.com you can buy, right now, the newly published Lumley collection HAGGOPIAN AND OTHER STORIES with what I consider one of my finest paintings on the wrap cover. If that's not enough, on June 10th you can buy the 20th Anniverssary edition of NECROSCOPE which first brought Brian and I together all those years ago.
The bottom picture is something I shot in Oregon. Cthulhu in his natural enviroment!!!!! No, really, it's an octopus and one of the rare times I've seen one really active and rearing up...and look at his texture! This is reference fodder for all kinds of creature pictures!!!
