My Pencil Drawing book has made it to a publisher!

Well, I finally did it. I finished that nearly year long project of putting together a book on how I draw ... and man, I'm beat, worn out and don't want to see a black and white pencil drawing for awhile!  Come to think about it, it is time to get  back into color.... hmmmm


I'm told I cannot post where or how you can get your hands on this book but for those of you who visit book stores I am sure you can figure it out. :)

I think if I do another pencil drawing book, make it half this size and perhaps on Sports in Action. Any suggestions?

Here is a discription I have on the book:

"Pencil drawings - a rare and often over-looked art form in today's art scene. This collection of masterfully crafted graphite pencil drawings shows the step-by-step process it took to complete over 26 dynamic drawings in less than a year. See the portraits develop and read the artist's thoughts and views on how he crafts each incredible work. This "journal style" book gives the reader unique insight into the creative mind of the artist and takes the reader on a journey from blank page to masterpiece."

Thanks, folks. I only posted it here because there were a few people out there that has shown an interest since I started this project.

Oh and btw - one has already been sold. Lets see if  - one sold each day.... naaaa, I'll never make it rich or famous that way but it was fun putting it together and seeing it make it to a publisher.
