VISUAL
When I dreamed of being a comic book artist I used drafting pens, mechanical pencils, set squares and a huge wooden drawing board my father made for me.
These days I've moved onto more mixed and digital media; combining hand-mixed inks, chalk pastels, Lomography and software. The drawing board is often an electronic one.

A Jury of Old Men
I was 16 when I first read Franz Kafka's novel The Trial. This pen and ink wash (with some recent digital restoration) was the result.
Not much of my early work survives, which is a sad story that I may tell some day.
Meanwhile you can have a card or postcard to send to someone you'd like to frighten or depress.
Star-Diver
Inspired by classic covers from Astounding Science Fiction, Amazing Stories and my toy robot collection. Come to think of it, this illustration reminds me of what I was trying to do with my radio play "21st Centry Romance"..
Digital painting using Painter Essentials and Picassa software
Meditating Velvet Gentleman
Another piece from my Cosmic Composers series.
Based on Picasso's drawing of Erik Satie (I love Satie's music and apparently some people say this Picasso fellow is a pretty good artist.)
Landscapes of the Imagination
Places of our past, future, dreams and into the infinit.
