News



Hello everyone,
I have been working really hard on side projectws, and my regular job has been keeping me very very busy over the last year. But I am finally getting some time to myself.
I am taking a vacation!
First off, next week I leave for SIGGRAPH in New Orleans. Work is sending me to check it out, as the head of my department, it is only natural that I get a week's paid vacation to the convention, for "research" :)
It should be a very nice trip, and I should get to check out a lot of cool electronics.

Then I come home for 2 weeks, and then I fly off for my first European vacation. I will be staying in Rome, Italy, and traveling all over the country, as well as taking a few side trips to Greece. Athens and Mykonos, here I come!

While I am gone, I will have a lot of time to draw, color, and write. Which are all things I have been dieing to do! I have so much stuff planned out for my comic books, and for my older artwork. I plan on taking my new kick ass tablet pc laptop with me and using it to color a ton of older drawings. I may not have internet access very often while I am there, so I do not think I will be updating my blogs regularly, but if I can, and if I have made anything worth psoting, I will try.

In other news, I have submitted two unpublished works to a magazine in Brazil, and expect copies to arrive in mid-August.
I sent off tow older drawings that I have recently re-worked, and wanted to share those samples here with my blog fans, since the magazine is not available in the USA. It is available in Brazil, Spain and France, so if any of you are located in those areas, look for my work in the August issue of Junior Magazine.

Here are the two images I submitted, my recent drawing of the "Boxer" and a re-colored version of my old Eros drawing. I hope you enjoy these pieces, and please come back to the blog to look for more work soon!

I have a few weeks left before I leave for Italy, and I plan to color color color as much as I can before I go. I will post samples here.

Thanks for being fans,
Mr Grey
