Q: | Which piece in your gallery is your favorite and why? |
A: | It might be the cover to Green Arrow Annual 1991. It is about 20 x 30 inches on board & fully painted by Mike Grell. It is a beautiful piece of Ollie as Robin Hood with Marian coming down the steps of a castle. If you know comic art you might like it & if you don't you still might like it. That being said, I would probably pick something different tomorrow. The cover to GL #19 2nd series is a favorite as well. |
Q: | Please tell us a little about yourself. |
A: | I'm in my 50's with a wife & two daughters. I used to sell comics & comic art for a living & dabbled in wine as a hobby. Now I sell wine for a living & dabble in comic art as a hobby. |
Q: | How long have you been collecting comic art and what prompted you to start? |
A: | I have been collecting art off & on for 35-40 years. One year my Dad bought a page from Nova for me. It didn't feature Nova, or really any characters I knew. It still triggered something in me. I loved the idea of having the only one in existence of something. Over the next few years, he bought me a Batman page from Detective by Ernie Chan,& a Neal Adams Wolverine sketch. The topper was when he got me a Frazetta pencil piece. After that I was mostly on my own in picking up new pieces. |
Q: | How do you display/store your collection at home? |
A: | I have a half dozen pieces in my home office & then 10 or so hanging around the house. The rest are in binders or tubes. My wife isn't a comic fan, so the stuff around the house tends to be art that doesn't look like comic art, Jeff Jones, Mike Dringenberg, that sort of thing. |
Q: | What are your top five most wanted original pages or commissions? |
A: | 1) My next Green Lantern cover. I want to own 22 covers from the Silver Age series that ran from 1-224 (1988). 2) I would like a nice Will Eisner Spirit page. I have had a couple & let them go, thinking I would find something better. Dumb move on my part. 3) Iron Man #65 pages 12-13 (1993). I got Mike Grell to name a SHIELD character Agent Anderson for me. 4) A Mark Schultz Xenozoic cover. 5) A piece by John Singer Sargent. If you are going to dream, dream big! This will change by tomorrow. |
