Norm Breyfogle - JONAH HEX

May has been a busy month. Birthday's, Mother's day, Memorial day, every weekend it's been something. It's been non-stop. Have to make time for posting art. Let's get back to it...

The second to last Jonah Hex commission I have. This one is a bit different though, I didn't commission this one. All the Hex commissions I have I have commissioned myself except 5 of them. The two Tim Truman's, the DeZuniga, the Ken Barr and the Cameron Stewart, they were the first Jonah Hex's I ever bought. Since then it's only been artists I've commissioned.

Then along came...this bad boy. Breyfogle and Jonah Hex! It was meant for me. I'm a big fan of Breyfogle and I had always wanted a Breyfogle commission. Loved his art (who didn't!!) but never had the opportunity to get a commission from him. Then tragedy struck, Norm had a stroke then an even greater tragedy Norm passed away. This sketch showed up on eBay sometime after his stroke. I knew it was mine. No way was I going to let this one go to someone else. Lol. It has that signature Breyfogle style and energy.

To whomever thought of this brilliant pairing & for letting it go, you have my eternal thanks.


As only Norm could do...

“He was a hero to some, a villain to others, and wherever he rode people spoke his name in whispers. He had no friends, this Jonah Hex, but he did have two companions: One was death itself… The other, the acrid smell of gunsmoke…”
