A few more concept sketches of Mary Shelley, still thinking over her look and feel.
Here I went for a more mischievous, inquisitive look – that personally reminds me of Mary's writing.

While, here I went for a more grown up feel and definitely, more the actual likeness of Mary.

Sketched up a little Frog Princess image. I always found this story (The Frog Princess/The Frog Prince) so amusing and couldn't help but grin as I drew this up.
Here is as a sketch:

And in color:

Happy Birthday to FRANKENSTEIN, the novel!

Sooo, I'm a day late in posting this but I think as I worked through the night that Mary would approve. Here is my tribute to one of the writers that changed my life. Thank you Mary! I hope you all enjoy.

Here's a panoramic panel for the special back-up story to be featured in the upcoming HALLOWEEN LEGION graphic novel. A little more rendering to go but thought I would share this fun in-progess :)

Once Upon a Halloween- Illustrations in Progress!


Thought I'd post a sneak-peek of the first page for the special back-up story to be featured in the upcoming HALLOWEEN LEGION graphic novel. A little more rendering to go but here is a work in progress of my illustrating process.



It's an autobiographical tale of Martin Powell's first experience with Trick 'R Treating when he was six years old. Here I illustrate him (the kid in the  Frankenstein Monster mask) and his two older brothers Wayne and Rick.
