Damn so good! Why is this sketchbook so quiet it should be full of comments!

[bbbigd0]

Hadn't been to this site in awhile. What a wonderful way to start a Sat. morning - discovering your wonderful Artwork ! I see by a comment here ,you have been at it thirty or more years. It shows. I'm sure it's been a tough road. But what confidence in the lines ( As someone said). Each sketch is a Story that draws you in.
I myself was bitten by several "creative bugs" early on. I still dabble in them all, but the one that has been consistent for over 42 years has been Music. The one thing I'm sure you must know by now - that it NEVER lets you down if you believe in it. It's always there , and has gotten me through every day - for better or worse.
I can't say enough about your quality of work. Thank you SO much for sharing these....................DP

Amazing works man! Theres life n every drawing you do. Keep the drawings coming!

I really like this sketchbook because your drawings have such bizarre and fantastical narratives! Truly imaginative, look forward to seeing more

You work is great - thanks for sharing! I saw in a couple of the posts where you'd written that the drawings were preliminaries for other media. Do we get to see the finished pieces, too, or are they all for published media, and you run into usage issues? Love the drawings here, as well as the concepts behind them, but I also really enjoy comparing prelims to finals !

i show my drawings in early study stage (they are not usually used).. first or second ideas.. the Edited pencil is not shown as that drawing is the basis for the Colourwork in the Publication..
