Jon:Ordo Draconis 2

November 24th, 2009 by Jon, Posted in News | No Comments »

Gosh it’s been a busy old time! As a reminder if you’re desperate to keep up with what I’m up to week to week I have a Facebook page here:http://www.facebook.com/pages/Jon-Hodgson/155241647318

So here’s a fresh(ish) one I can show straight off the bat. I was asked by the fine folks over at Ordo Draconis mag if I would consider reworking an image for them to use on their next cover. I found some time over the weekend to finally finish up alterations from this:

This is a feature I really love about owning the rights to some of my work these days. I can customise this stuff as much as I like. And I’m slowly improving the background and so on every time I go back to it.

Ben: Into ‘The Waste Land’…

Out at the end of this month is issue 22.1 of Gulf Coast, a journal of literature and fine arts. This issue features a comic interpretation of The Burial of the Dead, the first quarter of The Waste Land by T.S. Elliot. I was very excited to be asked to create this 12 page interpenetration of Elliot’s poem, the whole process was fantastic fun, presenting a very interesting challenge.

I am very pleased with the results, which can be seen in the magazine (and on the cover!) or in some samples on the Gulf Coast website. The newest journal also contains an article by Sean Bishop on the growing acceptance of comic art and it’s ability to communicate complex narratives, you can read that on the website too! I will post some pages from by Burial of the Dead on this blog over the new couple of months, but if you want to see it complete and any time soon, you just have to pick up a copy of the magazine!

Ben: Hollow

July 12th, 2009 by Ben, Posted in Art | 1 Comment »

Creeping though the deep, dark woods, our hero made his way to the oldest tree. It glowed lightly from the inside as the forest mist swirled around. Approaching the doorway-like mouth he became aware of a vast cavern deep within, a labyrinth carved out from inside the hollow tree…
