I created this image to enter in the Fandom
Directory black and white art contest, and never sent it
in. I did end up using it on a flyer for a game day event,
but other than that it has just sat around on my hard
drive.

Bob the Incredible was drawn from a collage that I put
together to show how to use a grid to enlarge a picture. I
sort of think of him as Indiana Jones' Grandfather.

After reading a call for freelance artists on the Kenzer
& Co. web site, I doodled this in my sketch book. Yep,
it's my vision of an old AD&D Mind Flayer. I sent a
scanned copy of it in with a brief resume, but I never heard
back from them about it. Oh well...

This image was initially one of two created for the
DarkCon 3
game convention. I originally had intended to use it as the
convention book cover until we managed to get a great image
from an artist guest (Quinton Hoover). Instead, it was also
slated to appear on the DarkCon 3 t-shirt which never
materialized. I later colored
this image with acrylic washes.

I found this in an old portfolio. I'm pretty sure it's an
old high school drawing, or my first year of college. The
"T" on the cover would indicate that it's an illustration
for a module I wrote back then. I don't have the module any
more, but the picture survived.

This image was meant to be the cover of an RPGA module. It
was my opinion that these modules always look too plain, and
a bit of artwork might spruce it up. I sent it in, they
published the module but never used the picture. I guess
their opinion doesn't match mine.

This is just a spur of the moment illustration of a
Champions character I once had in mind.

This was an illustration I did from an RPGA module I ran
once. I eventually used it for the cover of the old PGCO
(Players' Guild of Central Oklahoma) NETWORKS newsletter.
This image also occured next to my brief bio in the
DarkCon 4
convention book.

This is yet another illustration inspired by an RPGA module.
It was also used for a cover of NETWORKS.

Someone found an old publicity photo of a younger Jonathan
Harris, and I started sketching from it. It grew into a
little private research about the Television programs of
Irwin Allen, which I have represented here both with one
actor from each series and with the images in the
background. The console in the background is from the
original model of the Jupiter 2. This image ended up in the
1998 Fandom
Directory.

Ivory and Steel is a game, music, and comic book store in
Stillwater, OK. In an issue of their newsletter, they
announced a T-shirt design contest. This was my entry. I
never heard what design was selected.

Once upon a time I began writing a Champions module with the
RPGA in mind. For this module, I needed a group of super
heroes, and this was one that I had in mind. Eventually, I
scrapped the idea of a new super team, and went directly
with the characters outlined in the basic rule book.
However, I did have each of the super characters designed. I
did manage to make this image into a web graphic. He was
originally displayed on my front web page.

This was another hero on the above mentioned team. I ended
up using this image in the DarkCon 3 program book for the
anime schedule page.

This was a picture from left field. Someone contacted me via
the internet and asked me to do a picture of his wife in a
certain design of chainmail. He sent pics of her and the
mail along with a pose that some other artist had sketched
for him. He paid in chainmail. I now have a collar made of
the stuff, but I don't know when I'll ever wear it. After I
created this basic drawing, I added a background
and some color.

This was an illustration for something I was working on at
the time, but I forget exactly what.

I was obviously illustrating some sort of AD&D project
at the time, but I really do forget exactly what I had in
mind for this critter. I used him as a web graphic after
doing a little bit of colorizing.

This is another B/W image that I did for entry into the
Fandom Directory.

This is a picture that I drew from a collage that I made. I
thought it was sort of silly and I stuck it up on Elfwood.
Oddly enough, the last time I updated pictures on Elfwood,
this one was rejected because the clothing was not fanciful
enough. It struck me as odd that wings and an over sized
head does not counterbalance a striped bikini top. What
annoyed me the most was that it had been in my fantasy
gallery there for well over a year, and I was told to move
it to the sci-fi section. Is this sci-fi?
