Back to square 1- post or not to post

Sorry, I have not been posting regularly, like I should.  Due to some family issues that have recently found a conclusion; I was out of it for a while.  I am still in a funk and know that friends and family are key to my getting back to the business of becoming a better artist and a better person.  I recently entered into a art image contest where the winner will have their images displayed in a local comic store during a promotional event for the store.  I had just purchased a new iPad Pro with iPencil and though I would break it in.. The Event  Hail to the King is a promotional event put on at Green Brain Comics  to  celebrate the life of Jack Kirby- one of the key idols for comic community to this day.  I decided to do two things- portray Jack Kirby's heavy inked style and keep it sketchy with pattern brushes that are available in SkethchBook Pro for iPad.... It is my first finished work (from a quick sketch) with this medium, but, as luck would have it, I was one of those chosen to display in the event.  The Hail to the King event will be held at Green Brain Comics on  Friday, August 25 from 7-9pm.  Below is a sample of the  image- hopefully someone will purchase a print ( hint).


So come to Green Brain Comics  to the event "Hail to the King" @  13936 Michigan AvenueDearborn, MI, 48126  this Friday from 7-9 pm
