Description

If the piece I posted yesterday had fine lines, what the hell does one say about THIS piece?

Another phenomenal talent working for the House of Cam. When the Mustachioed Maestro tells you that they're excited about an artist, you don't wait, you just commission.

I saw images of this piece when it was finished, but finally picked it up at Heroes 2022 and was finally able to really appreciate the utter madness that went into the execution of this artwork.

Aside from the artistic merit, it's obvious that the artist is a fan of the series. One doesn't simply choose THIS particular scene when someone's only direction is 'Sandman'. Mr MacEwan is obviously an aficionado to choose this very intense scene, and give it the operatic treatment that it deserves. Bravo.

You can peep Ian on his instagram and commission him through Inky Knuckles.

I can't even process this. I feel like it has to be atomic sorcery.

Wow. Insane. The gradient shading created by the intricate compilation of individual strokes is just nuts.

I saw this in person and yes, "wow" is the only appropriate response.

The different choices of texture that make up the piece while the simple line work for Lucifer, just wow.

One of my favourite scenes in the book too. Bravo to Ian and congrats on another great commission.

Late at night when my Netflix is streaming
I raise up a drink for you
And I wish on a star
That some Lucifer
Drawing's for me too

'Cause Ian's Dreaming for you tonight
Sir MacEwan
Illustrating so tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming Cosmic Odyssey

Wonder if you look all dreamy (see me)
And I wonder if you know Despair (am I there? Am I?)
If you looked at my thighs
Would you be hypnotized?
Would you even dare?
I just want the crosshatch close
But so far
All I have are Dreams of you
So I wait for Cam's mail and binge Sandman all day
How much I love you, yes I do!

That is a hell of a lot of noodling! Almost makes me want to read Sandman!

Holy cow. So...many...lines! It all melds together exquisitely. Looks great here online but must look that much better in person. Congrats!

Love this one. I got edition 1/100 of the print that Ian made of this when I met him at TCAF this year.

This is quite the commission.
