Malcolm says........Dad, look how sexy and beautiful my prom date is!
Dad says......see son, I told you it was in your jeans, .....oops I meant genes.

Yes, Joanna has a fantastic body, but I have to hand it to you - she has an adorable face. I've seen so many artist focus on one and not the other. Well done.

Thanks! I try not to over-emphasize body parts so as to retain a sense of cohesicveness. A lot of the boob pages on DA make the boobs ridiculously large, and I don't like that. I love boobs, but women aren't just a collection of body parts to fulfill men's fetishes. I spent a long time trying to get Joanna's face the way I imagined it, and I came up with this about...er...20 ears ago? Has it been that long? Hmm. Anyway, it was long before Jessica Alba came onto the public scene, so no, I didn't copy her. She's close, though. Kind of a cross between her and Charlize Theron.

Yeah, I see that now. Men love a baby face, and she definitely has that. There is something in your art style that reminds me so much of an artist from Dragon Magazine. For some reason, Phil Foglio is coming to mind, but I don't think that's the one. Maybe its Fastner & Larson. Either way, keep up the great work! Oh, and I agree with you 100% on women not being a collection of parts and the ridiculousness of a lot of DA art. Thanks

I like Jo's dress in this one Matt. But hey, are we ever going to see the end to "A Leisurely Stroll?"

Yes, but I've got at least two other commissions to do first. The only reason I posted this was because I had already had this one done and felt I needed to post it after writing the "Errand of Mercy" short story.

Hehe, his ears are bigger than I thought he'd be. Such a shame for his fate in the latter chapters, I had half hoped with the "confidence" that Joanna gave Malcom he'd become some sort of tech billionaire.

Malcolm had to stay in therapy for many many years, LONG after Joanna had disappeared. Understanding obsession from all the Psych and counseling classes I've taken, I know that Malcolm would never quite get over her, and it would have detrimental effects on his professional life. Malcolm became an accountant, but remained a mid-level employee all his life despite his impressive resume of having graduated from Yale. He simply was an unremarkable and unfocused employee, and never got much recognition. He also remained single all of his life until, in his 50's, he met a lady his same age at his synagogue, they fell in love, and got married. Both were too old to start a family, but grew old together, living a simple life.
