Comic Books Now Available

Back in 2016, I worked on a comic book series with Todd Sanders called THE FEW. It was a three year project that ultimately produced nine issues. Like most things that I work on, it was here one day and gone the next. Over the years, people have asked me where they could acquire hard copies of these comics. I finally have an answer for them… IndyPlanet. IndyPlanet is a print on demand, online…

My New "Faux" Store

I had an online store for about a year, but I closed it. As the old saying goes, the juice just wasn’t worth the squeeze… then people started emailing me and asking where the online store went. In an effort to accommodate those of you who still want to run down to Walmart and print my artwork up into a poster for a classroom, I’ve come up with this solution.    I have added a page to my website…

Pugster

My art process has changed significantly over the decades. Today, I start with an iPad where I figure everything out. I do a finished pencil drawing on a piece of typing paper and load that into Photoshop for coloring… …but back in the day I worked gigantic! Huge sheets of watercolor paper, paint splattered all over my studio and I had to do all the headline text and graphics by hand.

Starfield

I’m one of approximately six kajillion people that are currently playing Starfield on Xbox. When I really enjoy a game I usually draw a picture of my character, so here’s my guy. His name is Weasel Rocketnaut, he’s a space scoundrel and he’s wearing his signature tin foil and leather space suit.

The Motorcycle Bug

I caught the motorcycle bug when I was 15 years old. I began saving my money and as soon as I turned 16 I bought a brand new Kawasaki motorcycle right off the showroom floor …and promptly ran over the back of a car, catapulted into the path of an oncoming semi truck and bounced into the Mountain Grove version of Dairy Queen (Panther Freeze) with a fractured ankle, a femur bone pushed up through…

1956 Chevy Belair

The first Jones family vehicle that I can remember was a 1956 Chevy Belair. There were no seatbelts or carseats back in those days so it was the wild, wild west for kids in the backseat of a car. One day my mom was driving to town and heard me making horse galloping noises in the back seat. She took a quick look back and I had one leg hanging out the back window and was riding the car door like a…

E6:11 Update

Back in 1996, I did a book series that featured a pretty diverse collection of really random ideas. The editor and I were both big hockey fans, so we made sure this concept made it into the final mix. Since the Stanley Cup Playoffs are going on right now, I thought it would be appropriate to revisit our Ephesians 6:11 hockey analogy with a brand new piece of art.

Art Club

I’m in Art Club at church. It’s a pretty exclusive club. Just me and Ava. The first rule of Art Club: don’t talk about Art Club… or is that fight club? I forget. Anyway, a few weeks ago when the sermon was over and the ceremonial exchanging of pictures was taking place, I noticed Ava had her dad write a note on one of her drawings that said “can you draw me a werewolf?” The cutesy picture of a…

Elden Ring

My favorite kind of game to play on the Xbox is a third person, open world game where you get to customize a unique character and then wander around aimlessly in a giant world looking for adventure. I just started a new game, spent forever getting my character just right, jumped into the world and discovered the character always has a helmet on covering his face… what?? I worked for an hour…

Dennis Jones Online Store

Over the years, I’ve made my artwork available to the public in a variety of different ways but it’s hard to meet everyones needs. Some want it for powerpoint presentations, some want it for websites, others want pictures for the wall. I can’t offer enough different products to meet all the various needs so I’m going to try something different, I’m just going to offer the artwork… no products.…

The Garden

A few years ago, I did several pieces of artwork for the kids area of Living Stones Church in Crown Point, Indiana. As I was looking through my files today, I ran across some work I did for the entrance to their children’s section. This illustration was for an irregular shaped wall with a big doorway in the middle (the picture has a huge void in the center of it) so I clipped out a few of the…
