The  Reports Of My Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

When I started this blog, I had such high hopes of posting topical observations on art, movies, painting and illustration in general. Well, if wishes were horses...

The truth of the matter is, as an artist, I'm a bit less organized than I'd prefer to be. I can be rather adept at prioritizing my goals for a given day but I find that when it comes to a thing like blogging, I tend to fall though the cracks. In the last two years I've added into my life-mix a desire to finally get my Bachelor's degree in art. The upshot of that desire is that it leaves very little time for anything else, and that includes dinners, family time and...blogging. Now, at the tail end of this experience, I feel I can finally breathe. 

That being said, I'd like to show you my latest project. It is a cover for Tobias Buckell's latest book called, Tides From the New Worlds. It is going to be published by Wyrm Publishing, within the next several months. I'll update that publication date as soon as I have it. In the next few days, I'll be posting some new info on the process of creating this work and how it came to be. (for anyone interested in reading that far)

In the meantime, here is the cover art before the text is put in. Till next time...
