Alright ... I know, I've been tragically ignoring this blog ... hopefully that will change sometime soon when i have something more to say here. In the meantime, though, I'm afraid I've had to turn off anonymous posting. I apologize if this inconveniences anyone, but I was getting tired of having to come in and delete obvious spam comments every two or three days. Oh, by the way, happy 2010,

This blog's been feeling a bit neglected with everything going on, but I aim to correct that in the new year, I promise.In the meantime ... Happy Holidays to everyone, and here's looking forward to a joyous 2009! (Hope springs eternal, anyway!)

Wow, this blog has been left idle for much too long. I'll have to take care of that soon, I promise.Today I'm trying to finish up a bit of freelance work and then get packed for my annual trip to San Diego Comic-Con. My flight leaves early Wednesday morning, so I'll be there from Wednesday night all the way through to Sunday. At least part of the time I'll be helping my friends at the Sofawolf

Just a quick posting to keep this blog alive. :) I recently discovered www.bloglines.com, which helps me keep an eye out for updates to a wide range of blogs out there ... there are so many terrific artists in this community who are inspiring to watch.This was just a quick sketch I did for a friend, to help promote a party he's throwing later this summer.Hopefully I'll be back soon with more to

At San Diego ComicCon last year, I met an artist named David Colman, and bought a few of his sketchbooks, including a 36-page color booklet called "The Art of Animal Character Design: Little Brother Edition." The booklet was, according to its own foreward, "a 'teaser' or 'trailer' to the full color hardcover edition due out in the near future." The sketches and concepts breifly mentioned on it

I attended WonderCon up in San Franciso this weekend, to help my friends at Sofawolf Press man their booth. Had a blast there ... among many other artists and fans, I got to meet David Colman and talk to him about his new design book, and sat next to Sean "Cheeks" Galloway at the next table, who I talked to quite a bit inbetween his customers about art and comics and the industry.Overall the

Even though this will eventually be an art blog, I'll be throwing in the occasional book or movie review and other commentaries from time to time. I just picked up this book last week, so I might as well review it now.Making Comics: Storytelling Secrets of Comics, Manga, and Graphic Novels, by Scott McCloudHarperCollins, 2006McCloud's 1993 book on the subject of comics, Understanding Comics: The

Welcome to the Yammering Griffins!, the Griffin Park Studio Blog. (I'm hoping to find a more interesting title.) There's not much here now, but sometime soon I'll be using this as a place to post rough sketches and development art for projects I'm working on, discussions of art or story technique, and pointers to interesting art-related things I find on the Internet. So please, stay tuned.In the
