Nice work!

Thanks! I have been doing the kid art for years. I want to break into doing science fiction and fantasy, but the competition is fierce!!!

Looks like fun stuff Franklin. I wish I had the talent to draw. I am going to stick with my lenses....

Thanks Richard! I love your photography! I wish I had the time and space. I'd set up a darkroom and pursue a bit of the B&W stuff. Alas, at this point, life is too hectic! Thanks for the kind words.

Please take a look at my latest work. I have posted it on my website and on Voodoochilli. It is a sketch that I will be developing into a full color painting. Thanks for the comments. Cheers!

My Mission...

To create the most exceptional imagery that I'm capable of in my lifetime. To constantly learn about my craft, and excel beyond my expectations. To inspire others to follow and utilize their minds and all the other tools at their disposal. To keep alive the dreams of the great surrealists who have gone before.

Kevin,
Nice website. Well layed out.
I do like the artwork I think my fav is Cliff on Arranmore Island. It looks peacefull and makes you want to be carefull at the same time.

Joseph,
The new site does have a new pop to it.
Some of the text is a little hard to read but the images really stand out. It made me want to keep looking to see what was next.

Thanks. The second site was built more from scratch than the first. I never did like the cheesy templates I was forced to use at the time. And the first one has a lot of tech problems that the second doesn't seem to have. They're not perfect........but they are free, so there is that.

Never argue with free exposure.

Hi, I have just looked at your websites and they all look very good, useable and without too much stuff you don't need. I am new to voodoochilli and am trying to get my fledgling career as an artist of the ground does anybody mind giving me some feedback on www.markeastbrook.co.uk

Hello, this is my blogspot thingy, take a peep
http://tracey-illustrat or.blogspot.com/

Nice work Mark,
I am a Photographer but there are many illustrators here and if you are looking for a great connection with other artists and very helpfull info, you have joined the right site.
So welcome....

Yes Kevin checked out site pretty cool, easily navigated,clearly and well presented,fresh and clean.
The artwork is varied I want to go back with more time to pick out a fave or favourites.
Supper Job.

Hi Joseph
Took a quick peek very profesional site,
cant say much more because could not view further than home page
because of the pop ups.Cant stand em.
Somehow you managed to overide my pop up block.
Which is a shame could have been interesting, ill check on my other computer,which is more secure.
Good luck anyway.

Hya Mark took a peek a fun site, clear and easy to navigate.
Little hidden pieces I love, the small moving images against the larger stills work well as they dont comprise, as some sites do. You can easily view both. Well done.
As for your artwork its wicked, a sense of comedy mixed with the more serious well excuted portraits.
You are a very talented artist, I say this in envy as portraiture and life drawing are my weekest points, which sometimes I find very fustrating.

Good luck with it all.
