spidey teaser

... here's a teaser of my spider-man concept design for some pages i did for a MARVEL comics talent search by CB Cebulski. will post the pages soon! ;)

midknight : paints

... this is a painting of my original character, MidKnight. i did this for a comic-book themed exhibit held last year at Artasia Gallery, Megamall, Philippines. inspired by 'starry night' and 'the scream'. MidKnight has been released in a self-published comic book in the Philippines. he was created in 1994, back when i was in high school! ;) a new series is scheduled for 2012.

it also features the Bible verse, Matthew 13:41 "The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil." NIV

acrylics and color pencils on 2' x 3' canvas. ;)

first post...

... and so here it is! my new blog! hi! i'm ron tan by the way, and i'll be your host!

i've created this blog basically to showcase my art. you see, i'm an aspiring comic book illustrator!

i know that apart from my GOD-given talents, it will be the LORD who will someday make way for me to break in the comics biz. i have complete faith in him! :D

in the meantime, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the show! so what can you expect from this blog? aside from my original finished art, i'll also be posting sequential pages, sketches, designs, artwork inspirations, movie reviews, tv show reviews, etc.

oh, there will be Bible verses as well! :D that will be exciting!

thank you for tuning in! you can add me up on facebook: ron.tan.artist or twitter: @_rontan_
