Comics Sketchbooks by Steven Heller

This came in the mail:



Proud to be one of the 80 featured artists. A lot of them are from the RAW circle, which is not surprising as Art Spiegelman contributed to the selection. My fellow countryman Joost Swarte is in there, and so are my pals Jakob Klemencic and Matthias Lehmann. Joseph Lambert is one of the few younger artists, but rightfully so - he's very good!

This is one of the spreads I have in the book:



It makes sense to have picked this one from a few years ago (20 sketchbooks ago) as this is from my Troglodytes series, which I did before I turned to medieval imagery. Three tomes of Troglodytes appeared in The Netherlands, while Top Shelf Comix published one collection in the States.

Anyway, Amazon carries it of course

Mesozoic 2 "Little Prince"




I was surprised on the day this piece was finished, considering in it's infancy it was fused from 2 other pieces, then grew from there. What makes me nervous, upon reflection of this process, is it's unpredictability.  Some of the stronger points of the piece came to be because I just found other scraps of paper from the floor.  Also there's a little homage (or as called by fine artists appropriation) from a famous graphic novel.  Off the subject a bit I have been exploring and researching contemporary drawing as well as it's development.  So I'm kinda excited about that.  Anyway enjoy!

Saint Drausina

A short story about the patron saint against invincible enemies, Drausina.


Here Death is entering the monastary. Drausina challenges him to a game of dice.


... And she comes out of that victorious. However, she realises that pride is a big sin and she humbly retreats into the wildernis in search of a hermit's living... which she finds in the stomach of a bear... This torture is ended when Death wins the return match.

Hey
Marc Brunier-Mestas the Great gave me a piece of his lino, I did this on it, happy to finally find a good mood on linocut. I'll probably have some corrections after this first print
