In October I have traveled to Prague to draw and take pictures as part of the "Walpurgisnacht" project research. I have just put the drawings from the trip in the Drawing section.

Douglas Haddow of The Aesthetic Poetic online magazine interviewed me earlier this month on the subjects of book design, my work and Dostoyevsky. The interview can be read at www.theaestheticpoetic.com

Just updated the Freelance Illustration section. You will find some of my most recent work there. Also I have put up a few new illustrations that I am doing for a book by Gustav Mayrink "Walpurgisnacht" (they are in the book illustration section). This is a long term project and the plan is to have 40 illustrations done by next summer. I'll be puting them on the site as they are completed, so check back again soon!
