I got invited by Scott over at Born Magazine to create the cover for the 2009 Issue #2 a little while back. The theme is alway loosely based around "birth". I had something similar to this in one of my sketchbooks that had been patiently waiting to be released on the world. After a little inking, careful planning of proportions, and strategic placement of hairs, this is what I ended up with. Check out Born here - http://www.bornmagazine.org/
Prints will be available in the RTD $TORE soon too, so sit tight and dream of all the lonely Mermen that will soon need homes.

Howdy y'all! To put it bluntly, 2007 really sucked for my wife and I. No need to go into details, but just to put it mildly, it seemed like every day brought one more bit of bad luck our way. Through it all, the one thing that was a constant bright spot in our lives was our three-year-old Lucas. So when 2008 began and Lucas asked me to make him a book about robots, that was all the inspiration I needed to try something I've never attempted before, namely, illustrate my first children's book. It's called
Robot Alphabet, and I plan on blogging about it on a weekly basis, taking us all the way from A to Z (you can find the site here:
http://www.robotalphabet.com/). The fact that this week's challenge involved Sci Fi, made it seem like the perfect time to announce what I'm doing to the world. Every week I'll be adding a new illustration showing the things robots do, starting with this week's entry: Robots Awaken. I'll also be posting sketches, doodles, tutorials, anything and everything that will demonstrate what I'm doing to create this book. When it's all done, I plan on publishing it through Amazon's BookSurge. I hope you check out my new site regularly. This is quite literally a labor of love for me.

ZOT!!!
I don't think I had posted this here before. But, I figured it was appropriate.

Sci Fi art is some of my favorite, especially retro. Funny I don't care to read Sci Fi anymore but the images can be very cool. I'll be posting some more Sci Fi art later today...
This week's theme: Science Fiction
The SFG Challenge runs Thursday to Thursday, and was created to offer every member an opportunity to stretch their creative muscles, venture outside of their artistic boundaries and post their interpretations each week on a specific theme. This is a completely voluntary challenge!
Be sure to label your illustrations with the appropriate labels as well. Label your entries with your name and the challenge label, in this case SFG: Science Fiction
The next challenge begins Thursday, January 17, 2008.
Sweet illo! Welcome back Mr. Cressy...you were missed!
I second that emotion... your great work was missed as well!
Great illustration! So retro and yet so modern. The colour combination works really well and all the "religious" details brings in a good story
this is brilliantly splendid.
Thanks all. I'm glad to be back. I hope to be posting more art. I hope everyone had a Happy New Year and that we will all be prosperous in 2008.
