I've been drawing fantasy art since I was about 12 years old (I'm 32 now). I started by copying illustrations from 'Conan the Barbarian' comic books and AD&D manuals. I've never used any medium besides pencil, although I have tried ink and didn't like it. The inspiration for the stuff I tend to draw now comes from the various novels I read. I started with 'The Hobbit' and never looked back! I'm trying to improve my technique by looking at anatomy books, since the majority of my work involves mythical creatures or muscular heroes. I haven't been drawing a lot in recent years (work, sigh...) but hopefully having the opportunity to post my work will inspire me to do more. I also do requests...actually, requests are the only things that have made me do some drawings lately! So keep 'em coming, I'll try not to disappoint. Update (28 Sep 03): I know that I haven't been posting anything new recently, or responding to posts. Sorry. Started a new job last January and have not been drawing since. I really should start again; I have some great ideas (and I need to draw the angel victorious in the angel vs devil battles).

Your drawings are very good. just a few missing things hete and there. Like the cape, heads, and a few muscule errors, but nothing that can't be fixed easily. I say blame it on the fact of being lazy. Boy do I love bing that. You also said you also played D&D. Even though I'm only 14 I play the game like its my friggin' life. Just wondering if you ever had a PC or you were just a DM. Over all very good drawings, and I hate you for one reason and one reason only....my girl friend thinks you hot. Self-taught, ITS SO TIME CONSUMING...eh. good job

:-) J.C. Besner replies: "Thanks for your comments. I played D&D for many years. I had a number of PCs, but I mostly DM'd. My best character was an anti-paladin; can't remember the level (17th? 21st?)...oh, and don't hate me...I couldn't stand it"

I see that a lot of people are doing centaur pics. I do not see any centaurs w/ wings. Too difficult, perhaps.... Your pictures are quite impressive as is.

Love your pics man (esp. your warrior angels), was wondering what your current email address was. I'd like to ask you a few questions about them and possible hire you for a sketch. My email is radueriel@comcast.net

I totally think that your art work defines the inner self of the immortals of angels and demons war of destiny. The picks that you have are awesome especially the winged demons nice text and drawing skill I can tell your stroking techniques in your art...very nice........
