This was my entry for the "BEASTS! Two" book through Fantagraphics Books. They had an open submission call for an vacant spot in the book. It was not accepted, but the winning submission looks awesome. So check the book out when it goes up for sale!
This creature is the Hodag or "Black Hodag". I grew up seeing depictions of this fabled beast on family vacations. It supposedly haunted late 19th Century logging camps and the great Northwoods until it was "captured" by lumberjacks.
That looks frikkin' sweet man. Too bad it didn't win. Your works always take me back to my childhood dude... I wish I had books with your art in 'em back then.

This was declined? Knuckleheads! This is beautiful. Great point of view and environment. It reminds me of the humorous mythical beasts my brother and I concocted when we were teens. We had a large empty field behind our house that was damp and marshy for about 10 months out of the year. We came to the conclusion that it contained what we called Field Fish. A completely unique to that field, semi-aquatic fish, that could live in and out of the water. It was scaley, spikey, toothy, unpleasent looking, and inedible. Ah, Memories! MJB

We want to know what love means to you!
Get your creative juices flowing and design a movie poster for "Paper Heart" that focuses on the theme "What Does Love Mean to Me?".
This is a collection of deviations showing real Pinups in the classic Retro poses from various Artists. For the 4rd time I present a variation of Vintage Pinup Queens as well as fresh modern Pinup art. If you love Polkadots, seamed Nylons, Plateau-Heels and and Miles-long-legs you should not miss this collection.
Inspired by Trudi Canavan's "The Black Magician Trilogy" =liam-stock and =Staub-und-Schatten produced stock images with the theme "Black Magic" for you to bring fantasy and magic to life.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

Do not trifle with the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
