Space-Girl

SPACE-GIRL - A black ink and color pencil drawing on an 8 x 8 size coquille board, circa 1968. It appeared in the comics fanzine, "The Collector"

After my drawings appeared in "Twilight Zine" in 1967, I began to get letters from other fanzine publishers asking me to contribute some artwork to their fanzines, and that was very encouraging. At that time I assumed that amateur fanzine editors did not pay for artwork, but it was not long before some of them began offering me payment, which not only surprised me, it was a great ego boost. And it made me realize that my artwork was now good enough to earn money, which was a big jump forward to my becoming a professional illustrator
