Dreamfairy Images

I apologize for taking so long to add images to this site.
A lot has come up since I first began this little blog and I had to put it on the back burner a bit. I'm still waiting for a response from the Wears Valley Ranch regarding this project.
Here are the first three pages of Ursula the Dreamfairy as well as page six.
The entire project is probably going to be eight pages without words, leaving the images to tell a story. The story will be whatever the reader gets from it. "It's all about preception, man," Bill Wilkison told me when he released Wha..? awhile back.
The concept stuck with me. I've always wanted to try a "silent comic" and this turned out to be a great opportunity to do so. Bill's comment on preception found its way onto the pages as well. I hope to have Ursula the Dreamfairy ready by May of '06 for S.P.A.C.E..
Until then, enjoy...

The last frame of page three is based on one of the last pictures of Arissa and her mom that I took while she was still with us.
I drew page six out of sequence because I got excited when I finally managed to create a look for Ursula that I actually liked. Don't get me wrong, I love Tinkerbell, but Ursula is a fairy with enough power to remove a child's nightmares, so the power had to be reflected in her poise.

I hope you've enjoyed what you've seen thus far. To all those who've expressed sympathy, concern and support over this past year, "thank you" just isn't saying enough.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to the official blog of Ursula the Dreamfairy. As of this entry, the story is still being written and illustrated. We hope to have it ready for SPACE next year (May 13th, '06), with any proceedes made from it going to the Wears Valley Ranch. I've recently attempted to make contact with the school to let them know our intentions so when we know more, you'll know more.

Ursula the Dreamfairy is dedicated to the memory of our daughter Arissa, who was tragically taken from us Thanksgiving of 2004. She was only ten. The story is a rendition of a story her mother came up with to help Arissa deal with her terrible nightmares, so it seems only fitting to share it with as many people as possible. At first, Ursula the Dreamfairy is going to be an ashcan or "mini" comic (8 1/2"x5 1/2"), with plans to make it full-sized in the future.

I would like to thank everyone who expressed interest and concern towards this project at this year's Mid-Ohio Con. If you're visiting this blog, please sign our comment section to let us know we're not living in a bubble here.

Sometime within the next week I hope to have images posted for you to preview.

Again, thanks for checking us out. We wish you all the best.
