The Clawson Comic Book And Toy Show

This Sunday, April 23 from 10-6, you can find me at the Clawson Comic Book and Toy Show at the Knights of Columbus Hall right there on Main St. This is a great show for comic and toy collectors, but there will be a few of us artist types there, as well. I will have all the usual Bruce propaganda, such as books, original art, prints (I'll be bringing out some of my older, bigger sized prints this time) and I will be doing b/w commissions. So, if you are in the area and are interested in such things, stop on by. Admission is on the low side!

Dumb Gulper Shark Sketch

This week's #SundayFishSketch theme are fish that might be forgetful, as in forgetting to do their tax returns. I'll bet that a dumb gulper shark (that's a real shark) just might eat its taxes and then forget that it had done so. You never know how these things can go.

The forms get stuck in the gills...

A Cubist Mako Shark Sketch

So, this week's theme for #SundayFishSketch is a bit different in that it is in depicting a fish in a cubist style. Now, I'm not entirely sure if I nailed it, but it was fun to do. I wasn't even going to participate this week, but thought I had at least give it a go, since it seemed like fun. Although, it looks more jittery than cubist. Picasso and Cousteau were my guides.

DC Bombshells Series III Artist Proof Sketch Cards

 

So, in continuing with getting these blank Artist Proof cards from previous sets done that have been sitting around for what seems to be forever, the next in line are these two from Cryptozoic's DC Bombshells set from 2019. I did a bunch of cards for the set, but was unfamiliar with the line/brand and assumed that they wanted pin-up style versions of their characters, not knowing that there was a 40's style line-up of the characters. They were nice enough about it and tried to get them pushed through anyways, but DC wasn't going for it. They still let me keep my AP's, though and here they are. Listings are below:

Arowana Sketch

 

Whoa, I've made two #SundayFishSketch themes in a row! The theme this week is in connection with 'springing' our clocks forward and so we needed to find a fish that does such a thing, something to do with that and time flies and all that. So, I was going to go with a flying fish, but then thought that an arowana will spring out of the water to snag its prey. They are quick too, as I can attest. I had one draw blood from one of my knuckles as it thought to teach me a lesson.

Plus, wouldn't this fish look great as a muppet with that mouth? Someone should do something about that.
