IS THE PATTERN UNRAVELLING? Review of Season 1 of the Wheel of Time
As you may know, most fantasy stories follow a universal structure known as the hero’s journey. The structure looks like the following: the hero begins their life in the normal world, unforeseen circumstances invite them to consider leaving this world, they refuse the call, circumstances then force them out, they go into a new world […]
The Eye of the World Fanart
“I deny you. You have no power over me, and I will not kneel to you, alive or dead.” Rand Al’Thor – The Eye of the World – Robert Jordan. Josha Stradowski is an excellent Rand. Both in appearance and execution. Aside from whatever objections I have about the writing of the TV show I […]
Improving the Artists Ability to See
As you may know, I have been on a journey to create 100 portraits. I am counting the piece I posted today, depicting Tom Holland, as #60/100. This process has stretched out far longer than I had hoped. My goal was to complete 100 portraits in 2021. I realized at about number 50 that that […]

Gull Lake Mural
This summer I had the privilege of creating a mural for Gull Lake Centre. The mural was to be in support of the 100th anniversary of the camp. But due to COVID-19 the celebration was postponed. It was uncertain wether the project would go forward or not. Thankfully, it did. The mural is very large. […]
Matrim Cauthon – The Prince of Ravens
Hey everyone! I finished him this week! I’m really happy with how this depiction of Matrim Cauthon worked out. Barney Harris just has the right look in my mind. The Wheel of Time TV series is back in filming and I’m feeling some excitement about the show. I’m jumping into some commissions now so I’ll […]
Fantasy Dudes with Great Hair
I thought I’d take a bit of time today to do a fun post about some of my art. I realized in looking at my Wheel of Time, Stormlight Archives and Lord of the Rings art that I like to depict guys with awesome hair. This is probably a psychological byproduct of my follicle challenges. […]
