I think I described this well enough in the post title…not feeling very clever tonight.
Test cover for Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland
October 29, 2009 by odone401Alice’s Adventures in my pad
October 20, 2009 by odone401
Stickfiguratively Speaking this project is becoming more enjoyable but still quite weighty. Sometimes I wish I did not have so much respect for the original, but alas…who doesn’t? I can only hope that my interpretation of all that belongs to Alice can hold the attention of those who view it. So, that being said–no Pool Of Tears tonight as I live in the DEEP shadow of Tenniel for another a.m. session.
orange marmalade

Right after Miss Liddell has decided to follow the rabbit down his hole. These drawings are becoming such a source of excitement and satisfaction for me–as I can do them in a snap. Currently, working out the dimensions of the what the finished project will end up and creating some concept/promo art.

Working on a new project that will have a release date of SOON! I’ll be posting a good amount of work from my little deconstructing wonderland book. Anyhoo…
Obligatiry workspace pictures
October 15, 2009 by odone401
Seems as though every artist MUST post images of their studio or workspace for all to see. Turns out that I actually do have some odd things laying aroud mine. Look for a jar containing a shark embryo. Antique dolls head belonging to my grandmother. Honey Badger prototype dolls(project killed) Waner Brothers invite to the red carpet premiere Where The Wild Things Are in NYC(was this Tuesday and so splendid). Tiny figurine of Jack The Ripper. Projects in the works all over desk. ETC…
Nothing all that interesting…just the world in which I reside…
Sticks and Stones and Nooses
September 26, 2009 by odone401
The imposing statue of Roger Contant stands in the square of the New England town he founded. This image has always lurked in a small corner of my mind. I have seen it through childhood visits, high school field trips and then university sketching jaunts. Now, the events of the year 1692 will not only be a topic I have strong interest in but it looks as though they will be my next project. And as my fellow author/illustrator(and friend) Timothy Decker did on his blog with the year 1722…1692 is all you will get.
Mine and Holbein
September 16, 2009 by odone401
I‘m a huge fan of the woodcuts of Hans Holbein. I try to use compositions of masters in my work and have this plan to have done each woodcut from Holbein’s book Dance Of Death in my work before it is my time to dance. Above is something that I just did for a fundraiser at The Silvermine Arts Guild in New Canaan, CT. Below is I have posted before but it’s topical. It’s a hidden picture illustration that I made last year for a children’s magazine. So now–I am at 2 with many more to go.
More Zombirdies
September 11, 2009 by odone401
These are some of the characters that will appear in the Zombie collection due out in 2010. I’ve set up a few of them to enter in a design competition…work well with jump drives?
If a deer falls in the woods…
September 10, 2009 by odone401
In a rare departure from posting only art to this blog–allow me to show you something a bit different. I’m a sucker for all those little critters that look like frozen and hungry saps in the New England winter…so I usually build one of these. It fills up with deer rather quickly after the first snow. I’m still only about 50% finished at this point but the skeleton went up fast. I’ll post some snaps of the new tenants when they move in.
OFFICIALLY IN THE DICTIONARY
September 4, 2009 by odone401
Odone, Jamison: Born in 1980, authored “Honey Badgers.” Publisher: front street (Asheville, N.C.). Published in 2007
So I’ve just found out that I am in the dictionary! Well, a small citation(see above) in a Websters publication titled, “Badgers: Webster’s Timeline History, 450 BC-2007.”
Swell!
