Also, if you like my sketches I'm featured in a book called Sketching from the Imagination: Fantasy.  I was sent a copy and it's pretty great, I'b buy it even if I weren't in there.  There are a lot of incredible artists and a wide variety of styles on display.  Check it out here.

American frontiersman, conqueror, inventor, pioneer, demigod (don't worry if you don't get it, it's an inside joke with my brothers).  Special thanks to my bro. Jake for reminding us of his greatness through a fireside ballad.

This is the second cover I've done for the Myth-O-Mania series.  I love Greek mythology and these have been so much fun to do.  You can buy the book here.
