Who I Am

Thats a great story. I just recently decided I want to do something with art for a career and switched my major from history to Art. I'm hoping it will help me grow a lot in the couple years of college I have left and point me in the right direction to keep progressing. Anyways, your story is a great one, and you are an inspiration, Loston.

wow! I've been a big cavewoman fan for a long time and a recent fan of your work. I'll have to go back through my cavewoman books and reread the isue with your contribution. Your tutorials have been a real godsend to me , and I have applied every single tutorial to my work and am looking forward to more, they have enhanced my work and for that I thank you .

It's great to hear that the tutorials have been helpful, dezz! Though I've mostly been posting my tutorials exclusively here on PJ, a number of people have told me that they discovered them via google searches for art tutorials and so forth, so the word is getting out about them. I've heard from many people that these tutorials have been of assistance to them, and hearing that makes it all worthwhile. I really enjoy helping other artists to better understand drawing things.

While my tutorials tend to be very eclectic because I try not to do tutorials about things that might typically appear in a "how-to" drawing book that can be bought off of a store shelf. Many art books don't go into detail about things like drawing the human ear, or showing you some easy step-b-step methods of drawing a fist. For certain you're not likely to find too many tutorials on drawing Spider-Man's costume webbing, Superman's "S" emblem or everyone's favorite ever-lovin', blue-eyed Thing, so those are the kinds of things I have chosen to do on my Tech Lab board.

If you or anyone else have suggestions on future tutorials, I'd love to hear them, as long as they're not something you can find in the typical "how-to draw" art books. If you have suggestions, folks, post them here in this thread:

Hello Bruce Lee,

Have you been doing any panel work in comics? I know you do licensing stuff, but I would probably enjoy seeing you tell a story more. I like all of the artists you like pretty much (Kubert, Buscema, Kirby, Wallace Wood). If not, I hope you do soon!

Hello Bruce Lee,

For starters, please call me Loston.

I draw comics from time to time. Sequential art is actually my specialty, even though I don't get to draw comic pages as much as I'd like to. Here are some links to check out from my comic, LORNA RELIC WRANGLER that was published by Image Comics last year. I pencilled and inked these pages, and Steve Downer provided the colors. These pages are drawn in a more animated style like the BATMAN: ANIMATED SERIES work I used to do for DC Comics. Since the series was designed by Bruce Timm, who is influenced by many of the same artists as I am, I have never had trouble drawing in that style. Like Mike Manley, Darwyn Cooke and Ty Templeton, I try to bring a bit of my own personal aesthetic to the work. Even though it's not my native style, I can get into it.

From LORNA: RELIC WRANGLER:
