Those of you who bought the book have seen three of his wonderful pieces in the gallery. Dave has extensive experience in the animation industry and as you can see, [...]

I really enjoyed this piece by Tim Beckhardt. His style really reminds me of Brandon Graham (King City). The simple line work is very appealing to me, yet is has a sort of richness. It’s something I’m trying to work toward, and having a hard time. Anyway, enjoy this cool little piece.

Oh yeah baby – my White Sox pulled it out. A nail-biting, tense-ridden 1-0 pitcher’s duel with a bang-bang collision at the plate and a Jim Thome home run to win the Central Division. How sweet it is! Only a week ago, the Minnesota Twinkies celebrated a sweep at the Metrodome like they won the [...]
