I want to relate a bit about the person who is responsible for mentoring me and helping me to learn to draw comics. We spent time together as next door neighbors for about eight years, and I still have a love of his artwork. He introduced me to comic books, as I was curious about the art form, having only a few transformers comics at the time. We walked to the Star Realm, which was our neighborhood comic book shop to buy issues of current comics. We both followed the Tick, he more faithfully than I, but we had many a chuckle over the first twelve issues together.

Anyway, I wanted to to advertise his site, https://www.jakemgillespie.com. He is a fine artist primarily, working in many different media. He has been known to dabble in all kinds of art, and has a degree from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln in fine art.

I think if you are looking to find quality fine art for your gallery or home, than you need look no further than Jake M. Gillespie’s body of work. I hope you find the sense of drama inherent in the portraits and landscapes that he draws and paints as compelling as I do.
