Joseph Conrad

While working on a recent portrait of Joseph Conrad, I decided to try combining the portrait with a watercolor of a river in the congo. Below, are the originals and the result of the combination.

Stolen Art

Again, here's the drawing of mine that was posted by the other artist claiming it was his. I did this sometime between 1996 and 2000.

Stolen Works

I recently found some old drawings of mine on the myspace page of a young artist. I have asked him to remove the drawings, and have been met at every turn with angry, vitriolic responses. I do not know if he is insane, or why this is happening, but I feel that I need to put a stop to it. I am not mentioning his name, because I am hopeful that this will be resolved without having to resort to that and I am hoping to keep this out of court.

In an attempt to show that the works I am claiming as my own, truly are, I am posting some examples of works on the same theme, done at roughly the same time, 1997 to 2000. I will post the works that I am claiming were stolen from me shortly. I appreciate any comments or feedback on this. Also, if anyone has sketches of mine in their possession, I would greatly appreciate scans. I regret having to do this. It is not supposed to be like this. I don't think anyone should have to protect their work to this extent, and have to resort to more than one letter to ask for the work to come down. As I wrote above, the artist in question, claims to have done the work. I don't know how this is possible, as that I remember doing them and have even based paintings on them. Anyway, here are my drawings.

Regards,

Bill

Please Send Scans

I recently saw some sketches I did at a comic con posted on another artist's site. These were either done as commissions or for free. At any rate, I am trying to find old sketches in order to prevent this from being repeated. If anyone I have done sketches for, either in their sketchbook, or one of the books bought from me, or wherever, could please send me a scan, I would really appreciate it. Here is the drawing in question.


Many thanks,

Bill

Drawing


This is a journal drawing that I did a while ago. It ended up scanned and put into one of the Fireman's Fund illustrations.
