Living in #Vienna has its perks. This weekend I drove to #BadGoisern, an #Alpine village in the #Salzkammergut. The town has an annual #Krampuslauf. The event lends itself to #Photography. The wood-carved #Masks are amazing. #EastCoastKin #StreetPhotography #Krampus #Austria #Wien #Österreich

Serendipitous #Krampus. Technically, last night was #Krampusnacht, but wandering about Bad Ischl this eve, I ran into a wild pack of Krampii & their obligatory St Nikolas. This one posed, whacked my wife then wandered off.
Tomorrow I’ll go to Bad Goisern for a proper #Krampuslauf #streetphotography

@markhamillofficial.bsky.social the 1st is a sketch cover I did for a charity auction a couple years ago. The 2nd (posted for Mr. Hamill’s connection to the iconic #Batman villain) was an exercise in coloring. I found the B&W #coverart by #NealAdams original is the 3rd pic, mine the 4th. #comicart

Even as a small kid, I loved to draw. That stayed with me for, well…most of my now 55+ years. Over those years, there have been many artists who have impacted me. Here are some of my works most impacted by today’s #ComicCoveroftheDay artist - #HRGiger #Art #Artist #eastcoastkin #myart #eastcoastkin

#ComicCoverOfTheWeek @heavymetalofficial.bsky.social # 38, released June 1, 1980. The #coverart was by Swiss surrealist HR Giger. Giger was probably best known for his design work on the film #Alien, but broke into film by doing preliminary design work on “the greatest #SciFi epic never made.” 1/3
