A longtime goal is finally coming true this weekend: I am going to New York Comic Con! I know it’s not San Diego, but this is the next best thing! When I saw that Mads Mikkelsen and Hugh Dancy were bringing the Hannibal reunion to the Javits Center, I knew I had to go. I had already missed out on so many other chances to see them together this year that I knew this was a now or never situation. Even luckier? After I get their autographs, I get to sit in on the panel, as well! I was so nervous reserved spots would be gone by the time I got through, but I made it! be prepared for more when I get back, but I can’t wait to get this thing signed.

Fan Art Friday: AFI, Pt 2
You get a part 2 this week because I get to see AFI live and in person TONIGHT! I am so excited. It’s probably been a good four or five years since I saw them last, and you bet I’ll be trying to work my way to the front. Stay tuned, but for now enjoy this other woodblock painting I did many moons ago.
Fan Art Friday: AFI
This will be the first of two AFI appreciation posts I’ll be making because I get to see them next week! But until then, I honor those that get to see them at the giant emo-fest happening in Vegas this weekend and last. Enjoy this very old painting on woodblock I did back in high school.

Ever since Queens of the Stone Age released their album, Villains, back in 2017 I’ve been obsessed with the cover art. And after a few false starts in the past, I finally settled on a medium (for the most part) and drew the dang thing! Pretty pleased with how it turned out. Enjoy!

After a lot of targeted ads, I finally relented and got a ticket to go check out the Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit in Cleveland this weekend.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Hannibal
In case it’s not incredibly obvious by now, I am as obsessed with Hannibal as Hannibal is with Will Graham. So naturally, I’ve done another piece, but this time they’re both in it! Most of it is pen, but the blood and antlers are painted (acrylic and watercolor, respectively). Truthfully, I am VERY pleased with how this turned out. I forgot how fun it is to paint blood, too!

Don’t get too excited, you’ll probably never see another Star Wars related piece of artwork pop up on here ever again. This is being gifted to a friend who loves Star Wars. I do not. Regardless! It was nice to paint again for the first time in years!
Read moreFan Art Friday: Does It Offend You, Yeah?
Nostalgia got the best of me this week, so I listened, on repeat, to my all-time favorite album, You Have No Idea What You’re Getting Yourself Into, by my favorite band, Does It Offend You, Yeah? This also happens to be one of my favorite album covers! A+++ guys. I also thought it’d be fun to show I can use other mediums – paint! Listen to this album…you’ll thank me later 🙂
