I'm a professional artist that has been published three times since 2002. The first book I was commissed to illustrate was "No Lady and Her Tramp" by Kristie Leigh Maguire and Mark Haeuser. I did the cover illustration only since the story did not require graphics on the inside. I later did a piece for a comic magazine Wizard issue #22, where I illustrated Rogue of the X-Men. My third commission as an artist was for Getting A Dog by Marsha Mims-Word which I'm holding in my profile pic. This commission included cover and 17 pages of the story line (The complete book). I do enjoy illustrating very much, but my passion lies within telling great stories. I'll be reposting one of my short stories here soon since I'm not able to remember the email to my old account here on authorden.com. Man that's embarrassing. So stay tuned and I accept criticism with an open mind and heart. Give me your best. *winks Arthur L. Bain
