as many are aware, and if you’re not – well now you are, i am working on an adapting jim henson & jerry juhl’s TALE OF SAND. it is an unfilmed screenplay from 1974 and it is currently eating my life. i am eating, sleeping, and breathing tale of sand… and happily so. it’s a highlight of one’s career to be involved in something like this – and i’m glad archaia gave me the oportunity to be a part of it, and allowing me the freedom to adapt it as i think jim may have done so during his heyday… if he were doing comics ;P
i’m not going to blather on, as i have to finish drawing the book. but i thought i’d share one of the opening sequences in it’s formative stages – as we nail down colour and the look of the book. speaking of colour – i am blessed by the able talents of jordie bellaire in this department. check her stuff out. it rocks.
stay tuned for more…
oh, and here’s a larger ZOOM of the image above.
this week see’s me attending the NYCC. i’ve gone every year as a tourist and enjoyed the show immensely – this year however will be my first year with a table, i won’t have much swag, perhaps a print or two and some original art. but i will be doing sketches and commissions;
$60 headshot/bust on 9×12 bristol (as can be seen in the above post)
$120 for full figure commissions on 11×17 or 11×14 bristol.
*additional characters are $30 for headshots and $60 for full figure.
i look forward to seeing you all there!
