I am very excited to announce that I will be returning to HEROES CON in Charlotte, North Carolina on June 12th! This is one of my favorite comic cons with a heavy focus on Artists Alley and comics, so I can't wait to be back. I also plan to have a new fantasy ladies artbook for the con. This 60-page artbook is a project that I've been working on for a long time, and it mostly consists of work that I have already drawn for auctions and commissions; so it will take away mini

More FIENDISH #3 pencils!
As the New Year has come to pass, I have been chugging away on both penciling and inking FIENDISH #3. I had turned in a batch of about 10 pages to my colorist a couple of weeks ago, and now I just got through another 10 pages or so of pencils, so I'll be back to inking in February! Here is just a little sneak peek at these penciled pages, with a few below the paywall just for you lovely website supporters (as well and Youtube and Patreon members!)
