# About me
I am a comic artist, illustrator living in Missouri. I have worked for IDW and EA Games comics division.I do a lot of work for IDW and Warriors Publishing Group (Dale Dye's publishing brand). That's right, I get to work with the amazing Dale Dye of Saving Private Ryan, Falling Skies, Band of Brothers, Platoon, et al....
I am also a digital artist. My first gig in comics was coloring, because I have been airbrushing since the 80's and using Photoshop since it was released. In fact, as of 2010, I no longer draw or paint on paper, and only work digitally. I called it "going Green." But, in all honesty, I hate cleaning my brushes, pens and airbrush.
"Gerry is an art making machine. Just a beast."
Ted Adams, CEO, IDW Publishing
"Gerry is the consummate comic-book artist they'll tell you doesn't exist any more."
Chris Ryall, Editor-in-Chief, IDW Publishing
"The guy is the future of realistic action comics."
Rob Simpson, Editor-in-Chief, EA Games Comics.

Are you in a position to hire people and if so would you consider hiring me?
I found you via Conceptart.org via a post about the job board being gone.
Regardless, I am interested in anything/any help you can give.

What i meant,as a freelance artist,those rough page layouts are like finished pencil already he just needs to give his creativity,his vision or should i say his trace so no trouble for him at all 'cause i did configuration of the panels on page pencil with shades, details it's much more than rough page layout!!

Heya. My buddy, Jon Alderink, suggested I contact you about the book I am illustrating. I am trying to find a colorist who can work at the same rate of pay I am. It is an 88 page book, and they are paying $10/page. I don;t want them finding someone, becauswe they might find someone that sucks, and then I will be pissed for having wasted my time on the project.
Anyway, let me know if it sounds interesting.
Gerry

Hello Cohen,
I'll start off saying that I truly love your art. I fell in love with your art style the moment I saw it. If you could please email me at hippyhater6@msn.com so we could talk to you about a business proposition I would really appreciate it. I hope I hear from you soon, and keep up the amazing work.
