The art on the cover is in pen & ink.  I also did this special color version which I am selling in a limited edition of signed and numbered prints.  You can order a print for just $10.00, shipping included, by contacting me via email. 


This is a new book from my co-author Douglas Brode. 
It's not a graphic novel, but I did do the artwork for the covers, front and back. 

              

You can take a look here, Sunbury Press, to order.

Barbarella prints were sold at the Palace Theater and at Ithacon 38, but I still have some available.  I am offering a very limited edition signed and numbered prints of that painting for $7.00 each.  There will be only 35 prints available at the showing.  I will have these prints at future appearances and they are available thru the mail.  Contact me for details.

YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS: the Myth of Emily Morgan

"A mighty fun and entertaining old timey graphic novel."

The SF Site Featured Review

"This book is excellent for teaching children Texas history.  This book is for general audience,
but the children will really like it as it is like reading a comic book.  The full color illustrations by Joe Orsak are very nicely done and he is an excellent artist/illustrator.  This book has an "EXCELLENT +" rating."

from THE LONE STAR BOOK REVIEW

In the April, 2011 issue of WILD WEST magazine Douglas Brode has an article about our heroine, Emily Morgan. 
With the article are some samples of my art from the book.
