anthology hits the bookstores June 27th. Rush

sense of
wonder... and once

I had the honor of doing the opening story.

reviews are starting to pop up and they are glowing.

XEKO
update

Matter Group to show off a couple of photoshop

done for the upcoming set of 150 cards. It's been
very challenging but rewarding at the same time.

Norway's
Nemi Magazine
In
the past few weeks, I've been working full time
on the next batch of illustrations for the XEKO
trading card game. Working on XEKO fifty hours
a week hasn't left me much time for other projects.
Still, when I was approached by the editor of Norway's
leading comic magazine Nemi, about

just couldn't refuse. The theme they gave me was "Life-Forms
