The Raven


Here's a marker & charcoal drawing I worked out the other night. Fun fact: I watched a pretty horrible/awesome kung fu movie right after i drew this- "The Magic Blade" it had nothing to do with magic, or blades, but it was pretty amazing. Shaw Brothers, 1976.

The Evolution of a Novel Page

Thought I would share the steps I take to create a novel page... First is the small paginated sketch; that lives in my binder which has the whole basic sketch of each page and usually any dialogue. This helps me work out the flow of the story before I spend too much time drawing.


Next, I draw the whole thing up in pencil on a page of bristol plate. This is the committed composition.


Finally, once all the kinks are ironed out with the pencil sketch, I go to town with charcoals.

When the chapter is finished, I'll scan each page into my mac, drop them into layout pages in InDesign, add borders, dialogue, etc. Done!
