Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus 2
Over the years, I have purchased several types of styluses in a futile attempt to turn my Ipad into a fabulous, portable, mini Wacom Cintiq. I have finally come to the conclusion, (sadly)… that’s just never going to happen… but Wacom is making the Ipad… Continue Reading “Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus 2”
Woodstock
On cold Northeastern Indiana nights as we sit in front of our blazing fireplace, my wife will occasionally ask me why I’m just staring into the fire. I always say, “because I know each one of those sticks of wood personally.” Every fall I tromp into the… Continue Reading “Woodstock”
Kokomo-Con 2014
…well, uhm, ok… so I have now finally, OFFICIALLY participated in a Comic-Con and it was… uhm… interesting… in a bunch of odd and peculiar ways… and I probably won’t be doing it again for a long, long time…
Paypal + Internet = Danger!!
I have discovered an extremely alarming situation concerning Paypal and the internet. Let’s take a random example… an unsuspecting fellow is haphazardly looking at things on the internet and stumbles upon a page for an Indiana Comic-Con that is taking place an hour away from his house. One keyboard click leads to another and badda-bing… Continue Reading “Paypal + Internet = Danger!!”
Walk Into My Future Day
Yesterday was “Walk Into My Future” day at Huntington University. I would conservatively estimate that there were 47 to 48 gazillion kids there. The university had all sorts of things for these youngsters to learn, see and do… and one of those things was a ten minute, how… Continue Reading “Walk Into My Future Day”

The Brother Jones Blog
It was December 2004 and the Jones clan had gathered in Missouri to celebrate Christmas together. While there, my nephew Keegan told my two brothers and me that he had built a blog for us. We said, “Hey that’s great! …what’s a blog?” Blogging was… Continue Reading “The Brother Jones Blog”
Slightly Steampunked
I am the proud owner of an old wooden chair that belonged to my Grandma and Grandpa Grantham. It came from the corner of their old smoke house where it sat dilapidated, covered in dirt, boxes and mud-dobber nests. I, of course, loved it… Continue Reading “Slightly Steampunked”
Guitar Center
I’ve had this guitar torn apart, stripped down, cobbled up and sitting in my studio for at least two years now. One way or another, I’m finishing it this weekend.
The Krazy Kat Is Back
I have a Facebook friend from Russia who makes great little dimensional creatures. Here is one she created that is modeled after my old crazy cat picture. Do yourself a favor, visit her page and enjoy her work for a while. You can visit… Continue Reading “The Krazy Kat Is Back”
Hogan’s Heroes
When I was a kid, I really enjoyed watching Hogan’s Heroes on TV, so it was pretty exciting when this job rolled across my desk. The magazine article is built around the old television show and the editor originally just wanted me to draw… Continue Reading “Hogan’s Heroes”
TROUBLE! On The Road
There’s a new BROTHERJONESBIGTALKIN’ Bible Story Book available in iTunes!! You can take a look at it HERE.
My Humble Beginning As A “Professional” Artist
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… I had completed my freshman year of college and needed a summer job. My brother-in-law, Larry, (a plumber in Kansas City) said I could come dig ditches for him. I had seen construction workers… Continue Reading “My Humble Beginning As A “Professional” Artist”
Yeah, Toast
Most every morning for me begins with toast and black coffee, so the Heywood Banks video below is pretty typical of how I start the day…
