How long have you been exhibiting Dreamwalker at Comic-Cons?

Since 2010. 

  • Silver Age Comic Con 2023 is my 6th Comic Con.
  • Seattle Emerald City 2012 is my 5th Comic Con.
  • WonderCon 2011
  • APE Con 2010 in San Francisco
  • San Diego Comicon 2010 and 2011.

What type of materials do you use?

Canson Smooth Bristol Board Paper 9×12 size, inking pens, india ink or Holbein ink, I also use Pentel Pocket brush pen, and micron pens.

What is your process?

I draw small thumbnails and make notes, then I find picture references, then I sketch out onto the Bristol board paper with a  prisma colored pencil in light purple or blue. Then I ink the page, scan and clean up in Photoshop. I adjust the Levels to make the blacks look more vibrant for printing and I save the file as a flattened Tiff to place in InDesign to layout the pages. Tiff files are for printing. If you’re doing your art on a 9×12 size paper, you will be reducing your pages to a proportionate size for the book. For Dreamwalker I chose 6.5 x 8.5. Make sure that whatever size you decide to draw on, that it will reduce proportionately to the size of book you want. [As of 2015] I’ve since upgraded this process!
