Black/White.

A couple of art pieces for ArtLoveMagic's art book centering around the interpretation of the Divine and the Profane. Kept them pretty simple, but kind of experimental. No inks, just straight pencil and Prisma.

I decided to stay away from angels and demons in these. Never been much for those overused symbols. For me, Divinity is as simple as the complete peace that comes with love. Likewise, Profanity is as simple as the absence of light, and the loneliness that comes with that.

Looking at them now, they're both pretty meditative to me, which fits since they're both subjects that have always intrigued me. I like that the color palettes are a bit different from what typically is thought of when these subjects come into mind. They're somewhat complementary, which fits for me.

Complete thumbs for Jason Mason for Tokyopop. Finished pencils today, so I'll start inks tomorrow.

Meant to publish this as a Year-closing blog, but as a condition of one of my New Year's Resolutions ("Thou shalt spend less time farting about online"), I put it off until a bit later than planned. Excuse over. Here we go.

2008's looking to be a pretty busy year for me. Honestly, my busiest start to a year so far. Below are a few peeks at four projects on schedule. I've got a few preview/test pages for a couple projects in particular that I'm gonna have to wait to show off, but we'll get to that.

And yes... this is also a means of showing that I haven't been doing nothing in my spare time. So there.

1) Teddy Scares Vol.3 & 4 from Ape Entertainment.
Volume 3 should be hitting shelves in Feb./March-ish. I've got an 18-page story in that one, as well as an alternate cover. Rather hilarious story. Here's a peek:
























I've also got a ten-pager in Teddy Scares Vol.4 (below), which I should be wrapping over the next couple weeks.
























2) Jason Mason and the Ghosts He's Chasin' for Tokyopop.
This one's been in the works for a while, so it's kinda nice to see it moving along. We'll be debuting it as a 30-page online comic via the Tokyopop site in March/April. I'm ten pages into that one, and it's moving along nicely. Below's a quick peek at the first three pages. Call me a tease. You can also check out the original 5 test pages I did in early 07 here.













3) St. Spooky's School for Girls.
This is a fairly big new project that I'll be working on with writer Tony Lee. The publisher's a lock, but they're pretty bent on keeping the details of the project hush, so look for an announcement later. I can say that it is going to be distributed first in the UK, though, with a US release sometime afterward. As for a peek...








4) Shortbus Superstars!
Yep, still working on this sucker. Not saying anything other than "It will own your ass."












That's enough for now, I think.
I'd say that I'm gonna try to post more, but...you know.

And now in remembrance of 2007....my favorite quote of the year.









Peace,
Rob!

Possible shirt sketch.

Haven't had much time for blogging lately, so I'll be popping up in about a week for a Year-End Blog-tacular, with previews of just what the hell I've been doing lately.
