| LIVE FROM DUBLIN! |
Well my friends this being one my favorite shows that I have put up though The One Man Show of last year still takes first place because let's face it was first.
But this week it comes down.
It had a good run and I was overly happy at the turn out for the show. And again I can't say enough about you guys who came to show your support of this artist. Thank you again!

AND ON THAT FRONT :
As per usual which is always fine by me is the fact the show (or at least parts of it) will be moving to a new location with a week and half after the Hop comes down.
The show will move to a smaller place called "My Brother's Crawfish" - a Cajun style restaurant not to far from home. So this is a different kind of venue for me but I think it will be fun.
It's good to have friends with connections. Its always kinda of nerve racking when you begin to deal with a new venue it which to show your work and with people you have never met before. Your only contact is thru texting.

COMMISSIONS:
They come in all shapes and sizes but one of the more interesting ones is doing a commission that is only 5"x7" . Last week I was contracted to start working on a piece that featured a friend's son as a medieval nomadic warrior. This harkens back to the days when I was playing DnD and illustrating images for my friends at the table of their characters. The first of the three thumbnails I have done and should have the other two done soon.The Best part about this was the fact that I was paid up front about this so there is no question whether or not it will get done.
I should mention that I do commissions. It usually depends size, complexity of the piece, varnished and framed. I.E. Gilrandree Commission 11"x14" varnished, one subject, no frame- $175.00 Usually half down and half on completion of project. Easiest way for payments is through Paypal using my email address blackboxcomix@yahoo.
If you are curious about it please email me at blackboxcomix@yahoo.com
I am within striking distance of finishing off the "Inhuman Torch" story line. This makes me very happy as I have yet to letter and then hand off to my friend Paula for editing.
There are a few more panels to complete and then it's off to the races!
