A little Background

For those of you who don't know me, and have no idea what the last post was all about, please allow me to introduce myself.

I'm a freelance illustrator. I guess I'm best known for my work in comics (Checkmate, ION, Satana, Belle & Sebastian) and role-playing games (Dungeons & Dragons, Star Wars, D20 Modern), although I've also been known to do editorial illustrations, storyboards, and design work for animation and videogames.

For the last 8 years my main web presence had been under the horhaus.com banner, along with Karl Kerschl, Matt Forsythe, and Brenden Fletcher.

Things, they change. Even though I did finally get to share actual studio space with Karl for about a year there, he's now moved back to Montreal, and I'm here in Toronto kickin' it with the fine people listed over there on the right, under the Studio header. In 2000 having a virtual studio was important. For me atleast it was a lifeline to a world I was struggling to reach for, believe in, and step into fully.

Things, they change.

Fall of the House of Hor

Welcome to my first-ever solo blog.

What happened you ask?
Nothing dramatic, really. Everyone's still friends.

It was just time.

Until I get my pimpin' new site up, my gallery is right where it always was. And this will be my new blog. Does that mean I will post more?

...maybe.

Come on, I'm a comic artist. Any pronouncements I may make about time, timing, future activities, and the volume of said future activities is, well, to be taken lightly at best.

But I'm sitting on a mountain of unposted art. And blogger makes posting art so easy.

And now I have this huge empty blog to fill up.

In the meantime, horhaus.com has morphed into karlkerschl.com, Brenden is making beautiful music at ragni.org, and Matt is still at comingupforair.net. Go check them all out and say 'hi'.
