So, in an attempt to post more regularly, especially in the midst of crazy production workloads on this graphic novel, I’m thinking I could start doing some weekly themed posts.  For starters, let’s try “Black + White Wednesday” eh?  Then maybe “Music Monday” perhaps…

This here’s an early stage of an etching I did way back when in school.  A portrait of a visiting high school student who came to college for some kind of annual high school fine arts festival… I saw him in the hall in the art building and said, “Uh, hey, can I take a picture of you to do your portrait?”  I think his name was Damien, but I can’t remember for sure, but hey, he’s Damien now.  HA.  Some day I’ll scan in the finished stage etching.  This image is cropped quite a bit, there’s alot more to it…  it’s one of Annie’s and my favorite prints.
