_________________________________________________________________________________________
Check your local book stores for ImagineFX issue# 28. Its also a tribute issue to the legend Frank Frazetta's 80th birthday. So get to the stores while they're still on stands! I'm on the DVD inside the magazine (turn to page 99) Also on there is a friend on mine, Melissa Findley. So check it out! Again, It's a FRAZETTA issue, isn't that enough of a reason to buy this! ;)

New print


Hey everyone, I'm giving you guys a heads up to check your local comic book shops this week for BlackBeard Legacy #1 With my fully painted work as the cover! Its released by my friends and great little comic company BlueWater Comics, interior art by Nicolas Giacondino & Andrew Cramer. Story by Eric Arvin. And Alternate cover by me Vinnie Tartamella :)

And for those who haven't yet seen/commented click the thumbnail :D


Side note* Some of guys might have noticed the Wonderland pieces aren't up anymore, they will be going up again but not until I get the "ok" to show them again, because I was asked not to show them yet seeing as they might be covers pretty soon too for another company :) More on that in another update.

Work bio again :D

Just a little update and some work info/work bio. Because a lot of people have been asking, and well I think its about time I post some of that info.

I'm a freelance artist (self taught), as some of you might or might not know LOL. I have worked for a number of companies that have included: McFarlane Toys (2000-2001 as a lead designer creating various works including the Tortured Souls series 2 figures based off of Clive Barker stories, Images' 10th anniversary series, Kiss, Onimusha 2 series, a few McFarlane monsters, the Viking Ages series, just to name a few. While there I did some work for Capcom's Onimusha 2, designing a few weapons that did make it into the video game. I also have done designs for Diamond Select toys (marvel and movie properties busts and statues) Toybiz (spiderman designs) Bowen Designs. I've also been a Story board artist for an independent movie company (Archangel Productions.) I've had work printed in various magazines, most notably in American Health and Fitness magazine, for the movie poster to Re-Evolution (a concept movie inspired by the novel I am Legend). and a sold out issue of Kitbuilders magazine, where my drawing of Tomb Raider was featured as the cover. I've also had some pinup pieces in a few comics, including a sold out issue of BloodRayne. And I got to tell my original samurai story/art for the 6 page mini story in the pages of Project Eon# 3 by Markosia comics and Visionary comics. I've also done some paper back novel covers for Wings Press. Philip series paperback. I am currently doing covers for Blue water comics. ( Sinbad series 2 mini series and BlackBeard Legacy.) With more very important projects on the way. And yes a personal project a few of my friends know of that has been in the works for a little while now(sorry again guys I haven't been able to talk about it yet) I'll be posting up more work and info soon on all my projects in the coming months,

Stay tuned for more!
