Amber Heard


Amber Heard is going to blow up as big film star in the near future. She would be good in something written by me. Hopefully that will happen since we are both represented by Endeavor. Here's a drawing I did of her.

Elizabeth Banks


Here's a drawing I did of Elizabeth Banks. She's a funny actress. I would like to work with her one day.

Taylor Swift


Here's a drawing I did of Taylor Swift. I can't say that I'm a fan of her music because I haven't heard enough of it, but I have heard her talk about her songwriting. She's an introspective writer like me so I give her artistic respect.

More Doutzen


Another drawing of Doutzen Kroes by me.

I was talking with my buddy Bobby Rubio not too long ago about who I would cast for a "Gun Fu" movie if it was up to me. For Dr. Witt (the Nazi robot designer) I would audition Doutzen and if she showed that she could act, I would cast her. I've seen her do a bit for a Victoria's Secret web thing and I think she could pull it off.

Juliet - "Lost"


Here's a drawing I did of Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet.

After this season, "Lost" has only one more before it ends. I wonder if any of its actors will be able to move on into features and blow up there. I think of them all, Josh Holloway who plays Sawyer has the best potential. If/when I get any juice in this town, I will cast him as a lead in one of my films and make him into an action star.

Intrigue


I finally finished inking this piece. It took me about 8 years to ink this Intrigue cover that my buddy Michael O’Hare penciled. The extreme time wasn’t because it was a particular difficult piece to ink, but because when I first started inking it, I realized that Intrigue would be delayed (three issues had come out at the time). I didn’t know it would be this long and the fourth issue still hasn’t come out.

Various things happened to cause the delay (changing penilers, FedEx losing art). Presently, I do have Intrigue #4-#6 all in pencils (it’s a 7-issue series). At some point (mostly because of all the problems on the book), I just felt a desire to do new things and so I moved on.

On and off during the past 8 years I would ink a few spots here and there on this cover. I generally like having more than one piece around when I’m inking just so that I can switch pages when one page has wet ink.

Francis Portela penciled most of the unseen issues and I have managed to put some of those pages to use. Those pages that I’m inking in my film “The Secret World of Comic Book Artists” are Francis’ Intrigue pages. My actors, Eric Weldon and AnnaLynne McCord, went fully into character and did some actual inking on those pages. Unfortunately their inking skills aren’t up to mine, so those pages are unusable now. Inking is mostly a mindless task (as any inker will tell you). You can talk on the phone and watch TV while doing it. But acting and inking at the same time is very difficult. Only skilled professions should attempt it and only under a doctor’s supervision and with the expressed written consent of Major League Baseball.

I do have photocopies of those film inked pages, so they can be recreated. I will also, one day, put out the completed Intrigue story and art.

The Office


Here are Rainn Wilson, John Krasinski, and Jenna Fischer from The Office. I still prefer British/original Office to the American Office, but I find it funny when casting for the American version, they mostly went with better looking actors than their British counterparts. We can't help it that we're just too good-looking.

Drag Me to Hell

Fans of good movies and Sam Raimi have something amazing to look forward to with his upcoming film “Drag Me to Hell.” It’s written by Ivan Raimi and Sam Raimi. It stars Allison Lohman as a bank loan officer who gets a deathly curse by an old woman when she rejects extending the old woman’s mortgage. It’s like Raimi’s “Evil Dead” films with its high kinetic intensity, shocking frights, and good spots of humor. The ending is clever and unpredictable. This is what happens when you let a master filmmaker do his best. He takes advantage of what makes cinema a wonderful and unique medium.

Anne Vyalitsyna


Here's a drawing I did of model Anne Vyalitsyna.

If you're looking for a DVD to rent, check out Ping Pong Playa directed by Jessica Yu and written by Jimmy Tsai and Jessica Yu. It's a comedy about a slacker who needs to win a ping pong tournament to save his parents' business. Jimmy also stars in the film and he's a funny and talented guy.

Leona Lewis


If you haven't heard Leona Lewis sing "Run" check out her singing it live here on X Factor. She's amazing. I expect her version to be a big hit when it's released here in the States. I also like Snow Patrol's original version and wonder why that wasn't bigger. Here's a drawing I did of Leona.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Here's a bunch of cards I did for Marvel Masterpieces 3 a few months ago.
