I recently attended a comic convention in Breda (Stripfestival Breda),
the Netherlands. John Flesk from Flesk Publications , together with the guys
from De Stripspecialist, Breda’s famous comic book store, invited me to join the
Flesk Prime team and share their booth with four brilliant artists from the US:
Mark Schultz, Jim Silke, Terry Dodson, and Thomas Yeates. The convention was very busy and we spent a few days doing sketches and drawings,
talking, laughing, having some excellent dinners together and enjoying good beer.

Here are a few other sketches I did before and during the show. Giants and girls,
that is what the fans want me to draw these days. I don’t consider myself to be very good when
it comes to drawing girls, but I am always pleased when I can bring another
silly giant to life… on the paper of course.

What do I know? What do I know that you don’t know? Suppose I know something that you don’t … why, or how would that be beneficial to you? That which we call knowledge, or accumulated knowledge, is just a residue of my own life’s experience. Footprints in the sand...
How does one create epic Art? – this is one of the questions that I am sometimes asked by young, aspiring artists. Another one is – I want to become a great Fantasy artist and a master, so what do I have to do to achieve that? Meaning – what kind of procedure, or a...
Lovely sketching as always, Petar. Something about your ladies seems giant and epic in scale, too… as if they are giantesses! Thanks for posting these, I always enjoy seeing them.
