Exula

Since the last update I’ve recovered from my ailments (huzzah!) This has meant I’ve spent a lot of time away from a wacom stylus, leading to extensive withdrawal symptoms. I didn’t waste this time though; where possible I developed the plans for the Exula novel. A while back I did an 80 page treatment and a basic plan of the plot etc. This was well received and I got a lot of valuable feedback. So I’ve been building on the story arcs, fleshing out the minutia of this world and making sure the pacing is well balanced. Basically I hope to start writing in full sometime in August. I’ll update more as things shape up.

Expose 6 is out now! Buy it and buy a little bit of me… or at least my artwork. The Mantis Queen also made it as one of the limited edition prints!

Because things have been a little sporadic, the website won’t see full completion for another week. However, I have resized all Exula images as well as the ‘Otherworldly Portraits’ so they’re bigger and more glorious than before.

Work on producing prints proceeds well. If there’s anything in particular you’d like to see as a print, do send me an email!

I’ve been helping out the Left Below lot as well, so expect to see more artwork from that in the coming weeks.

Needless to say I wouldn’t post an update without something to show! I’ve added one more portrait to the Otherworldly gallery in Illustration as well as a quick two hour landscape study entitled “Goat and Robot”. I imagine goat and robot would get up to all kinds of crazy hijinks together, just like those old films about cats and dogs floating down stream in a cardboard box - you know the ones.
