Promise of Power: My first Expo (2017)

0 min read

Hi Everyone, In this blogpost i would like to talk a bit about my experience on my first expo, especially the opening, and i hope it encourages you to set up your own! How it all started I went to an exposition of friends, around a year before i decided to do mine. They were present at a local art collective and they invited friends and family. Food was present, music even and a general good vibe. I wanted to try something similar. So i am a regular customer at my local American Book Center and i noticed that they organize various expositions upstairs. One day i just asked the store clerk if i could enter, and after showing my w...

Hi everyone, Now that ive shared the process of learning the craft through a mentorship i would like to explain how i made various of my portfolio pieces. Today we will talk about my piece t he Khan and the Horselord, An interpretation of the tale where the devil promises Jesus the world but he declines, but in this storyline the devil goes to Genghis Khan and promises him the same. The latter accepts thus he becomes the greatest conqueror in history. ''Who am i you ask'' The hooded stranger grinned.

Back From the Monastery Part 4: Epilogue

0 min read

Hi All, This will be the last part of my ''Back from the Monastery'' Series, about my mentorship with Sam Flegal. This blog will be slightly bittersweet, but not too hard to handle hopefully, haha. Bear with me. The Cordyceps King After a succesful year with the mentorship, ehnancing my skills with art, convensions and web presence, it was time for me to set my first step into the world of big people. I was excited for that, but it didnt go without too ups and downs. It started positively. The piece shown above was the final piece i finished under Sam's guidance. It received the best acclaim of any piece i shared so far. It got a Dai...

I like your work, thanks for sharing.

Cheers !!

there is a webcomic you should see

''HELLGASM SLAUGHTER'' is a webcomic that i ramdomly found on TAPAS a webcomic publishing site, which look like some kind of kill la kill/ devilman/evangelion fusion. It tells the story of the devil of pride Belial who fight hell and heaven armies to become the new ruler of the cosmos, and there a lot of stuff about hell and its 13 circles. The story is full of dark humor and bloody fight with funny insane characters.

PS: take time to read cause there are lots details which can be easily missed sometimes (particulary in fights)

here the link : https://tapas.io/series/hellgasmslaughter/info

The chapter 13 is ongoing

I like how your chatacters have faces that could belong to actual IRL people. This is not so common.
