    According to Don, his next remarque will be on buzzard. Can't wait to see what he has in store.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Rahfa. I'll forward it to Don.

    My apologies for not having any new remarques lately to show. Don was away on a road trip to an artist convention. But now that Thanksgiving is over, he had been hard at work to complete a few more. 3 more remarques was done over the weekend.

    Remarque number 8:


    Remarque number 9:


    Remarque number 10:

    I really like the remarque for Can Tah. It's rather unique and unusual.

    #10 is really, really good...one of the most unique remarques I've seen among the Whelan/Dameron/Maitz collections...maybe not the best, but very unique. That's the kind of little detail I really like to see - takes the item out of the realm of imagination.

    I LOVE them!! And, as with the Dameron remarque series, they seem to be getting better as the artists get 'warmed up'.

    Juliana-

    I can see the first two but not the third??? Weird. Very nice indeed!

    Don was away at Illuxcon in PA two weeks ago. Michael Whelan was there as well.

    I don't see it anymore, either. But it was there less than two hours ago! Too bad really, because the third was the best, IMO.

    I MAY consider buying one myself. When you figure in all I have bought this year though, I'm pretty well tapped out. Maybe I'll hit the lottery.

    It's going to be hard for me to part with these remarques. On hand and looking at it full sized, they are spectacular. I really like #10 as well. I think it's the 'note' that brings together the image of the Can Tah so well. Very interesting remarque.

    If you reread Desperation, you will realize that it is a rather gruesome book. Many of the scenes are full of gore and such. It's also filled with lots of animals and the desert dust. It's been interesting pick and choose images to depict. We are half way done on the remarques. 9 more to come.

    I was asking Don about his selection of particular scenes to portray. He gave me some interesting information on it that I thought I will share:

    I listen to the recorded book ( with King as the narrator) and latch onto descriptions that seem to grab me and have importance to the context of the book. I prefer to present the twisted bits in the story because that is what the novel is about, more so than the heros' actions within the story. I feel that were I to have illustrated a Gunslinger book , and did those remarques, I would have focused upon Roland as those books are essentially his story. In Desperation, David, Mary, Steve, and Johnny are all play the parts of heros so, I decided to feature the strange behavior of what opposes them instead upon picturing the characters themselves. It is creepier- and it is a very creepy book.
