Q. : You and others do these cover recreations quite abit...... well, what happens with them ? I mean, are you doing it for the practice or are there buyers for this kind of thing ? Why don't you do something original ??

 

There are buyers of the art yes.

You do what the buying customer wants.

Sometimes the buyer wants their favorite cover as close to the original as possible, other times the request is something custom. Sometimes a completely unique piece.

I need to dig through my boxes in storage and get my art supplies out. Every time I start something, it gets interrupted, and then I ended up boxing everything up when I moved a few weeks ago.

 

I had started a project where my dog and cat and my brother's family's dogs and cats were upgraded We3-type operatives. . . my dog obviously will have the most firepower, since she has easily caused the most destruction of property out of the group. I still need to get a new couch.

A really weird attempt at something semi-manga style

And then there was the obsession with tribal ankh designs

Some became tattoos for people, one became a piece of jewelry

At the time I was doing these, I was working at a movie theater in Arlington TX. It got very boring at time waiting on movies to end so we could close up the theater. So many time I would doodle on the back of the schedules for that day...

Back in the early 90's I worked at a movie theater. It was nice getting to take home movie posters and banners once in a while. One of the banners I got to take home was the teaser banner for Titanic.

A few years later I got bored one day and started this. I never finished it, but it was started in 1997. Great thing is NOW I can finish it with my daughter, which is ironic since her middle name is Dawn.
