Between them all is a towering spire of rock, buttressed by enormous stone monoliths in the form of ancient giants. Atop this spire, creatures of all races meet to trade, negotiate, argue, and find their fortunes. This is Ral Buldhar, the City of Giants.”</span><br />

Split evenly into two tables of six, this group of met weekly for three months to roll dice, role play, laugh, and explore Ral Buldhar - where fate had greatness in store for each of them. </span><br />

I scanned in a smattering of pieces. I am super swamped right now finishing a couple books, but took a little time this morning to post some things.<br />

It is interesting to look at work you did 20 years ago. I would make some different decisions now.<br />

Right before The Force Awakens came out, <a href="http://www.kevinnecessary.com/"><b>Kevin Necessary</b></a> and I talked about doing a Star Wars tribute show. We knew at the time, we were too crazy busy to do it but the topic kept coming up and Kevin suggested having his good friends at <a href="http://www.brewhouse.com/"><b>Brew House</b></a> host the show.<br />
<br />
Fortunately for us, they were up for it! Next, we had to cajole our many busy artist friends to participate. We are overwhelmed with the results!<br />
<br />
See the total artist list here:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1055581011181549/">https://www.facebook.com/events/1055581011181549/</a><br />
<br />
Also, Anthony "Tank" Mansfield, Jaimie Filer, Justin Stewart and I will be making live art during the show.<br />
<br />
The show is at <b>Brew House</b> on 1047 East McMillan from 6-1l.<br />
<br />
I will be auctioning off my live art to Force for Change and BH will also be donating a portion of food and drink sales plus any other donations.<br />
<br />
Most of the art on the wall is for sale too. I have five new Star Wars pieces up.<br />

It is fun to dip my toes into the Star Wars universe once again. As those who reads this blog know, a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I did quite a bit of illustration for the Star Wars RPG for West End Games. Interior art and card inserts for 13 books to be exact. I only show 12 here because that makes a nice block and I cannot remember the last.<br />

Finally, every artist wrote a blurb about what Star Wars meant to them and a favorite quote. Here is mine:<br />

<h4>
Urban Traps</h4>
by Penny Williams, illustrated by Christina Wald
25 devious devices make any city a place to fear, a place to steal, and a place to adventure.<br />
<br />
This was a fun illustration done in 2002! There is a lot I would handle differently if I did it now...<br />

I actually, if you can believe it, used to mail the original art to the publisher. FedEx was a close friend back then...

Here is a blast from the past of some of the cards I did for the Dune CCG in the 90s.
<br />
<br />
As has probably been chronicled before by other artists from the
project, we at first were directed to make it look like the movie and
then later were told not to in later sets.<br />
I could not find the cards to of my favorite paintings for the sets
and did more of them than I thought. I hope I can find the rest. Many of
the original art scans are on long forgotten zip drive cartridges(I DO
NOT miss those)…<br />
<br />
Of course it is crazy to find anything you did 18 or so years ago.
(And I do hundreds of illustrations a year, do the math and imagine an
episode of Hoarders and you get the idea of how many books, cards,
paintings etc. I have…)<br />
<br />
It is funny to look at them now. I would probably make some different
design decisions. Many of the illustrations look like they take place
in a hotel (perhaps an art deco Hilton in desperate need of a remodel?)
and I like to think I would make better composition choices now…<br />

I recently ran out of business cards and had a pop culture gallery show coming up so I took some of the gazillion blank backed cards Wizards of the Coast used to give the artists and put labels on the backs. It was a big hit.<br />
<br />
At this week's illustrators lunch, I gave one to an illustrator who worked for Ral Partha back in the day. He said he actually designed this mech. How cool is that? I probably bought that miniature too since when I did assignments for FASA, I tried to buy them when possible to draw from.

Every once in a while I find I piece I completely forgot about. We have been renovating our home library and had boxed up all of our books and magazines while the shelves were being built and installed.<br />
<br />
As my sister-in-law Karen was going through the books (she is helping us organize the space) she had me go through the old issues. I remembered it after I saw it, but it is funny how it completely was off the radar. I do not even know where the original is.<br />
<br />
I did the painting in early 1996. I cannot believe I put the priestess in flip flops. Maybe I was just a fashion forward thinker since now they are worn by everyone for every occasion.<br />
<br />
But a priestess?

Original painting from Middle Earth: The Wizards Collectable Card Game from ICE in the mid 90s based on JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. The card was a promo card, this is the original art for it! It was fun working on Tolkien stuff before the movies were even in the works! (Painted in 1995) and this is an authentic, licensed painting from the game. <br />

I am pretty sure this was illustrated the story <a href="http://index.rpg.net/display-entry.phtml?mainid=9148">"The Innkeeper's Solution"</a>. Sadly, 1997 was a while ago and my studio is not organized enough to dig through my contributors' copies from various publications. The story was about a village where the townspeople had familiars or <i>were</i> familiars...<br />
<br />
<b>Fun fact: </b>One of the models for this painting is a designer at Hasbro and was one of my classmates at University of Cincinnati. </div>
