Video showing the front and back of my hand painted sign, 'UNKNOWN'

The ‘UNKNOWN’ signage was actually painted on the back of another sign I did a while ago - ‘Plan 9 from Outer Space.’ I didn’t want the original anymore… but I didn’t want to throw it away so…

New hand painted sign

New sign painting on printmaking paper, “Possibly the most…”, 22x36”, enamel and acrylic paint

Inspired by issue #87 of the comic book title, Fantastic Four, by the illustrious Stan Lee and Jack Kirby- (I just read a book about that guy too) 🤷🏽‍♂️

2022 has now arrived!

New hand painted sign at the studio

Sign painting on a scrap piece of wood. 8 x 12” Inspired by the ‘Strange Tales’ comic book title page by Marvel Comics.

“Strange Tales is a Marvel Comics anthology series. The title was revived in different forms on multiple occasions. Doctor Strange and Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. made their debut in Strange Tales. It was a showcase for the science fiction/suspense stories of artists Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, and for the groundbreaking work of writer-artist Jim Steranko.”

I will be posting this sign on my Saatchi account in the coming days so please stay tuned!

Snow man sketchbook has finally been digitized!

I’m happy to announce that I finally sat down and digitized my entire snowman sketchbook. For awhile I only had about 70% of it scanned. It was something I needed to do… obviously, but I always managed to kick the can down the road. There was no immediate deadline or demand so….
