"Samnee" rhymes with "omni".
Okay, so this is my oversized "thumbnail" sketch for the commission from last weekend. Tara and Tom's poses are actually based on one of the Man From U.N.C.L.E. movie posters from back in the day. If you swing back by tomorrow I'll have the penciled version posted. See ya then!

I've done artwork for the graphic novel Capote in Kansas (which I received a nomination for the 2006 Russ Manning award for) and Queen and Country, both published by Oni Press, The Exterminators and American Splendor, published by DC/Vertigo and Checkmate, published by DC Comics as well as the Daredevil Annual: Blood of the Tarantula with writers Ed Brubaker and Ande Parks published by Marvel. I recently completed a graphic novel for Vertigo with writer Christos Gage and I'm currently working on the Marvel MAX series Dead of Night: Devil Slayer with writer Brian Keene. I live in the 'burbs with my lovely wife, Laura and our happy little cat Scout. All characters TM and © their respective owners.

Nice job...ever think about finding a way to stay looser?

Actually yeah, I'm constantly fighting with myself to try and loosen up my style. I've been getting better with the pencils but my anal-retentiveness kicks in by the time I have a brush in my hand and everything ends up looking slicker than I'd like. I really admire the look of stuff by guys like Jorge Zaffino or John Paul Leon but I just haven't been able to get into that kind of mindset yet. Thanks!
