So my children's book just got picked up by the Children's Literary Agency and is now being shopped around to different publishers. I'm more than excited, and now really trying to focus on finishing up the illustrations for it. If you happen to stop by my website, you'll notice that my intro page featuring the lovely SG Suspiria among others has temporarily been removed because I don't want the first pic a publisher sees to be a naked chick covered in blood, y'know? I replaced the intro page with a brand new piece I finished today. It feels like a kid friendly pic and still has a creepy vibe to it. Anyway, I'm keeping all of the art up. If they happen to stumble onto the "horror" or "tattoo" pages, it's their problem. Don't worry though, the intro girls will be back up in six months or so. Toodles.

Check out the new pics DickStarr.net

Just stumbled across you here and dropped by your website. Your art is way cool - I've a couple of friends here in blighty whose work I admire for the same reasons. I'm like one of your 'friends'...I can't even hold a crayon! I cheat and use a camera (LOL!!)

Good luck with the book, man, and thanks for showing us your art.

Ciao,

Albion.

You're welcome. D'you mind if I pass your web link to my friend Elanora - she's one of the artists I mentioned? She is also a sculptor and performance artist. Her web is at http://www.taghairmarts.com/ (I'm not sure about the bleeding rose on her homepage - this lady has a dry sense of humour, though, and is likely to have put it there for tackyness value LOL!).

Ciao

Albion
