Monsters Are Real

Ahoy ahoy.

This is a piece of concept art I did for a short film project titled Former Things. The script was written by a friend of mine, Adam Brown, and tells the story of a young man returning home "to take care of his father's body during the zombie apocalypse."

Here's the Kickstarter page for the project if you'd like to learn more about the film and see the other bits o' concept art I painted.

Must say this was a great job to work on. The script was interesting and Adam had a solid idea as to how he wanted the film to look. My only regret is that I couldn't make it out to the location for the shoot. I think I would have really enjoyed observing the process. Perhaps there will be more of these in the future.

Man... two posts in seven days. This is gettin' heavy.

Hey, remember that time I wrote two blog entries within a reasonable amount of time of one another? Yeah, me either.

Anyway, here are two pieces I've finished recently...

This piece was inspired by the novel, "The Return of the Soldier", by Rebecca West. A shell-shocked English soldier comes off the front lines missing the last 15 years from his memory. Quick, but excellent read.

And this came to mind after watching an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents titled, Back for Christmas. After a man murders his wife and buries her in the basement he finds it's not so easy to lose the ol' ball and chain. See what I did there?
