Monster, Moving and Illuxcon 6

Moving is always a big undertaking. It presents lots of unforeseen snags and sometimes great opportunities. In August, my wife was offered a job just outside Indianapolis and we decided to relocate. That meant I had to leave a really good job and was unprepared for my next step. That step being freelancing full-time as an illustrator and designer. I have relaunched my graphic design site, www.jw-dsgn.com. The big lessen from all this was to always be prepared for an opportunity.


Image above is my rendition of Nyarlathotep, the Lovecraftian horror, done for Cthuhlu Vault card game by Richard Launius. Kickstarter campaign will be up soon and game release will be summer 2014. Love this stuff! More images in next post.



Unfortunately Con season is over but that means it is time to apply what I learned and push out some new work. Last month attended Illuxcon for the first time. I was happy to meet Pat and Jeannie Wilshire who put on the most amazing show! The quality and quantity of art was overwhelming. I am already looking forward to next year. After the show I was refueled and painting happily.
