Inktober 1- Fast

Inktober is back! Here is some info: http://mrjakeparker.com/inktober Join and create! What could be more "fast" (today's theme) than a seahorse race?  I used a variety of color inks and my zebra brush pen as pictured below. This scene is derived from a sea story I am working on. I can't wait to see everyone else's sketches this month. It will be great fun to participate!

It was such a wonderful event for the families, it was an honor to meet some of the families, draw for the kids, and meet talented cartoonists and comic artists!! Thanks to Scott Shaw and especially to Paul Gagon and Sharon Gagon taking care of us and making sure we didn't melt of heat! Some talented artists I met were Talia Ellis, Ivan Camilli, and Terry Wilson. Can't wait for next year!

Spock Cat Appearance in Another Publication

  

I was so honored when Miss Judy Wilson member of Starfleet an international fan club for Star Trek and editor of the the USS Colombia NCC 2049 ship newsletter asked to feature my Leonard Nimoy cat illustration in the April 2016 issue. I am a Star Trek fan and painted this piece in honor of our beloved actor and character, Spock, he portrayed so well. There are some amazing articles about Leonard Nimoy and more! See information about the ship here: http://www.usscolumbia.net/ncc-2049/ and some screen shots of the newsletter below:
Oh, yeah and one of my favorite Spock scenes. What is your favorite Spock scene?
