Artist Spotlight: Jon Scialabba!
Happy November to you all and to all a Happy November!
First things first because I don't want to detract from this incredible artist and human being we have in the spotlight today, but....I FINALLY FINISHED THE ARTWORK TO CHAPTER 2!! The next book is now firmly in my publisher's hands and will be laid out and shipped hopefully before the Christmas holidays!!! I cannot wait, and I cannot thank you all enough for your endless support of me and my work.
In that same vein, I am excited to introduce you all to a fantastic artist whom I met at a fundraiser and talent show in South Jersey. I was vending at this particular event, and I wanted to check out what my neighbors were up to. I spotted his work first, because it instantly blew me away. The level of detail he achieves with pencil, pen, charcoal, and ink is incredible. His subjects were highly contrasted and meticulously rendered. But most importantly, he's an incredible person. More than anything, I've seen that just being a good person gets you further than talent ever can. I'm excited lease read through his interview below and enjoy the work he's so generously shared with us as well!
