When producing an editorial illustration I seek to establish an emotional and intellectual connection with the viewer. If I can get them wondering what event is taking place and why, or trying to imagine what might happen next, the image is a success.

My earliest experience as an illustrator was gained by showing and selling in art shows at science fiction and media conventions throughout the United States and Canada. After organizing and running a successful SF-media-comic convention of my own in 1979, I began co-publishing, art directing, and illustrating for Miriad, a science fiction news, reviews, and interviews magazine.

Dark Harvest, Baen Books, magazine covers for Dragon, Dungeon, Adventures Unlimited, Borderland, The Familiar, Miriad, Scream Factory, Scrye, and comic covers for First Comics and Apple/Warp Graphics.

A Hero Named Harold, published by Warp Graphics/Apple Comics.

The Care Bear Movie, and the Ewoks and Droids cartoons for Saturday morning television.

In recent years I've been working as a freelance art director, designer, illustrator, photographer, and writer concentrating in advertising and corporate communications. However, I also continue to produce work for the book and gaming industry. I provided the art direction and production for
Nexus: The Infinite City for Daedalus Games, and Murphy's World and Bob, Lord of Evil for Peregrine (my own game company). I also produced illustrations for On the Edge, the collector card game from Atlas Games.
