TRIPOD WALKER (2016)
Acrylic on Watercolor Paper - 19" x 13"
Painted on the back of a misprinted Dark Tower image I was using as a mixing palette of mostly white, yellow ocher, and raw umber. The print is on such a fine grade of heavyweight watercolor paper that I was loathe to throw it away. 1/3

THE DARK TOWER (2004)
Acrylic on Panel - 30” x 40”
After illustrating THE GUNSLINGER back in 1981, it seemed only natural that I return to close this epic series that spanned three decades. 1/3

sgt1372I ❤️ the #DarkTower (2017).
It's one of those sci-fi or fantasy based films, in which a kid or younger person is cast as a hero or cohort, that just appeals to me, much like:
#EndersGame (2013)
#TheLastAirBender (2011)
#SorcerersApprentice (2010)
#BulletProofMonk (2003)
#TheForbiddenKingdom (2008)
None of which are great movies from a film making POV but are movies that I find very entertaining nonetheless.
Kenneth RappIn another thread[0] I was reminded that this metal song about Blaine the Train from Stephen King's Dark Tower exists and it's been an earworm for hours now so I'm making it your problem now.
No I didn't spell his name wrong you didn't see shit just now.

THE GUNSLINGER: THE SLOW MUTANTS (1981)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 20” x 15”
I took up the challenge of illustrating this scene illuminated solely by the flash of a gunshot. In so many ways, it was the shot that set the stage for Roland’s epic journey to the Dark Tower. 1/3
COLD AND ALONE (2025)
Acrylic on Illustration Board - 13” x 10”
"Mordred was as cold as they were, every bit, and he had no one."
In "The White Lands of Empathica" from The Dark Tower, scenes alternate between Roland’s katet and Mordred following their trail. 1/3

Auch beim zweiten Mal nach 13 Jahren, macht mich dieser Teil immer noch fertig… Vielleicht der beste Teil der Saga, vielleicht das Beste was King geschrieben hat. #darktower #rereading
