NEW - Thoughts & Progress concept art booklets

NEW to my online store: ever wonder about the process I go through to make my paintings? Starting with one of my most popular images 'The Boastful Ghost' - I assembled the first in a new series of booklets called Thoughts & Progress. Inside I disclose where the idea came from, all the planning involved and show all the drawings during the process - no steps have been withheld!
(Think of it like the audio commentary or 'making of' featurette on your favorite DVD's!)

Happy Fourth of July to my American friends! Work is progressing once again on the 'cat theme painting'. Here is a sneak peek of what's to come. (Recognize anyone?) I'm diligently working to finish it on time for the New Brow screening and art show (see info in the post below).
