Faerie

Here are my inks over Mike Wieringo's pencils of his Tellos faerie character.

The Secret World of Comic Book Artists

I recently finished a rough cut to a feature film that I wrote and directed. It's a comedy titled "The Secret World of Comic Book Artists" and stars AnnaLynne (Transporter 2) and Eric Weldon (The Tyra Banks Show). Two comic book artists and a beautiful girl attempt to meet a seemingly insurmountable art deadline. In the process they ruminate about life, love, religion and why there aren't any young guys named "Dick."

We are taking the film on the film festival circuit. Here's a poster for the film that is penciled and colored by Herval and inked by me.

You can check out a trailer and clips here:

I have also uploaded a trailer and clips of the movie on YouTube:

Two Girls and a Rabbit

Here's a drawing I did of two super talented girls that I know. One of them is whacky.

Mrs. Howard M. Shum

Here’s a drawing of my future ex-wife Angelina Jolie. “How will that happen?” you ask. After viewing my debut feature film, Angelina would immediately want to meet the brilliant filmmaker behind such a visionary piece of work. Angelina falls passionately in love with me on first sight. We fly off to Sri Lanka to get married. Zahara and Shiloh think that I’m cool while Maddox shouts at me, “I don’t have to listen to you! You’re not my real daddy!” We then jet off to the Ukraine to adopt triplet orphan babies. On our way back from picking up the triplets, Angelina and I get into an argument about string theory and quantum physics. We stop in Mexico and she divorces me. She leaves me stranded, but luckily I manage to hitch a ride with Jessica Simpson who is in town for a Mensa meeting.

Adriana

Here's my latest attempt at drawing Adriana.

Future Star

I have seen the best young actress currently working in film. AnnaLynne's acting is natural and she makes it seem effortless. It is said in basketball that a sign of a great player (Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson) is that he can make bad to mediocre players better than they actually are. I have witnessed AnnaLynne's ability to do this with fellow actors. I think she can make any film better with her presence.

Rachel

Here's a drawing I did of aspiring singer Rachel.

Monsters Inc.

Here some more old Disney Adventures stuff penciled by Tom Bancroft and inked by me.

Kim Possible page

Here's a Kim Possible page that Tom Bancroft and I did a couple of years ago for Disney Adventures Magazine. I've been crazy busy lately. I'll post new art soon.

Intrigue

Every once in a while, someone will ask me if I intend on finishing my comic miniseries Intrigue. Intrigue was written as a seven-issue series and three issues were published. Various circumstances (FedEx losing original art, having to change pencilers, etc.) caused the publication to be delayed. I have issues #4, #5, and #6 all penciled and partially inked. I will not publish any more issues until all the art for the entire story is finished. Here are some unpublished pages penciled by Francis Portela and inked by me.

Now in Color

I colored the Adriana drawing I did earlier,

Lord of the Rings

Late last year and early this year, I penciled 1,000 sketch cards for Topps for their Lord of the Rings: Evolution card set. I was commissioned to ink and color some of the cards after they were bought. Here are a few.

Julia Stegner

I did this drawing of Julia from a photo.

I Wonder...

I wonder what Natalia Vodianova would be doing right now if she didn't become a model, marry a rich dude, and had two kids. I think she would be creating comics. She would probably want to collaborate with the best creator in comics and since Dave Sim is semi-retired and Kyle Baker prefers to work alone, that would mean me. We would make a really cool comic (even cooler than Gun Fu). People would say, "What is this amazingly beautiful girl wasting her time doing comics? She should act or model." Natalia would then become a model, marry a rich dude, and have two kids.

Feliz Aniversario

Feliz Aniversario, Adriana!

Angelina

Today I was sitting waiting for something to happen and decided to pass the time by sketching this drawing of Angelina from a cover of a recent People magazine that was lying around.

Estella

I did this drawing of Estella Warren based on a photo.

Spiderboy

Here's a drawing of Spiderboy that Mike Wieringo penciled and I inked.

Josie

Here's a drawing I did of model-actress Josie Maran.
