I did a number of these engravings as a set, partially as a practice run at intaglio.

They were done on Ampersand Art clayboard: an archival tempered hardboard surface coated in white clay and india ink.

Though they were all done within the span of a couple of months, this one was one of the very first.

This one is a little bit 80's, which I enjoyed doing.

They were all done within the span of a couple of months. This was done on a whim, Lovecraft inspired.

Though they were all done within the span of a couple of months, this is one of the very earliest of them all - This was, I think, my 5th such go at engraving.

I was stranded in an ice storm in deepest, darkest Missouri at the time - power was out almost statewide, weeks I in our region. I was reading whatever books were handy, and thinking of someone who was on the other side of 20 miles of fallen trees, darkness, and panicked people. These particular scene out of C.S. Lewis' Perelandra" struck an accord with me.

Though they were all done within the span of a couple of months, this is one of the very earliest of them all - my first being a remake of Gustave Dore's "the Raven" (done to decorate my own wall). This was my third lifetime go at engraving.

This fine engraving depicts a rather Lovecraftian creature of the deep embracing a submersible craft, much like the Nautilus of Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Atop the oceanic mountain in the far background rests an ancient and forgotten temple, marked at its entrance by the sigil of Dagon.

Though small, these engravings are so incredibly detailed, that no web image could ever do them justice. Rest assured, this is a very fine piece of work, and very skillfully crafted.Properly matted and framed, it would make an excellent addition to any space.

These engravings are done on archival claybord - a thick, tempered archival hardboard layered with archival white clay and india ink, all acid-free. The archival rating on these pieces is 200+ years.

Painted at 49x32 inches, in acrylic on rough canvas this original painting from Myke Amend is a beautiful, serene, and equally strange piece, with bizarre lighting and shadow effects which make some objects and figures seem to lean out of the painting.

This surreal piece is heavily-influenced by "Spirit Walking" ("long-term sleep deprivation" as we like to call it).

A lonely cliff scene (Half Moon Rock in the Historic Daniel Boone Forest), serene and violent at the same time. A silhouetted figure throws roses into the wind brought by a not-too-distant storm on the horizon.

Acrylic on Canvas

This is the Second painting and the Second work in the collection "Airships and Tentacles" wherein Vernian and Lovecraftian influences intermingle. It is an image both lampooning and celebrating the wreckless spirit of adventure of Victorian and Edwardian-Era century explorers.

The work was commissioned for Josh Pfeiffer of Vernian Process, as an album cover, and it includes the HMS Gabreel above an icy sea investigating a strange and perhaps long-forgotten and possibly alien craft.

The images went to Vernian Process, the painting remained with me, until now. It is finally up for sale.

It is 48 inches by 24 inches in acrylic on Birch panel.

One of three really tiny paintings I did to pass the time for a smiley-themed set.

That collection is still building.

These pieces are more whimsical, for fun pieces which I may someday make little rhymes for and assemble into a book, despite that I have been urged to never, ever, rhyme again. They are painted on 5x7 canvas board in acrylic paint.

The original water color painting over pen and ink, made for the cover of the upcoming coffee-table art book (and as the design for the new t-shirts).

This was one of the earlier ones of those.

Painted on canvas board in acrylic and accented with silver leaf (clock numbers). I like to mix stories, influences, personal meanings, and political meanings into all my pieces. This piece is the product of my love for E.A. Poe, Hammer Films, concerns over longevity, and my efforts to quit smoking (don't worry - I never smoke indoors - nothing I own or sell is smokey). This painting is 12x16, and framed in a pretty dark oak frame which you may or may not want to replace.
