November Issue of Heavy Metal Magazine

The latest installment in our Tarot series featured in Heavy Metal Magazine is now on the newsstands! We show three new Tarot cards each issue, and since the four of us are creating the set, one of us gets a break. This month, it was Boris' turn to just hang out and listen to Rachmaninoff.

New Painting by Julie

Here's my most recent painting, A Rose For Peter, a private commission.

Our Tarot Project at Tor.com

It's been said that she is THE most influential force in the direction of science fiction/fantasy art today and we would wholeheartedly agree--Irene Gallo of Tor Books has posted an interview with us in her super popular blog The Art Department. She is introducing our ongoing and upcoming Tarot card project. Thanks, Irene! Once again, your energy and enthusiasm inspires us!

Painting in Progress

These are stages one and two of painting a head. In the first picture the pencil drawing is glazed with a thin coat of burnt sienna acrylic.
In the second picture, oil colors are blocked quickly one next to the other with a flat brush, in this case a number 4.


The picture on the left shows the blending of the colors. This is done with a soft, round, watercolor brush, number 6 for this one.
In the picture on the right we see the finished head. Details have been added as needed.
The whole process of painting the head has taken one hour. The size of the head is around 3.25" from the top of the head to the chin

New Drawing By Julie

A sculptor for Yamato Toys is doing a sculpture of a painting I did in 1992, "Golden Lover". I did a drawing of the back view to help him with the process.
