A Dotpunk At Heart

Here's an ink, graphite, and charcoal drawing from a few years ago, At The Night's Heart. This step-by-step details how I was working then; my thanks to ArtGraphica for republishing.

Some things have changed since those days- I haven't done much inking lately, and charcoal has assumed a much larger role in my work. But I'm still a stippling fool, still a dotpunk at heart.

Postcards, greeting cards, and matted prints of At The Night's Heart are available at Redbubble.

Neil Gaiman: Make Good Art

Whatever we make or do or want to, we all need to watch Neil Gaiman's 2012 Commencement Speech at Philadelphia's University of the Arts. If he'd never written Sandman or Neverwhere or American Gods or any of it, this would be enough.
