Thanks for checking out the art, everyone.

A new book, Leviathan written by Scott Westerfeld and fully illustrated with over 50 pieces of art by me is going to be available October 6th '09.

You can check out a trailer for the book here: Leviathan Trailer
(or with a tinyurl preview here Leviathan Trailer )

Art prints from the book will be available here: Leviathan art prints
and also here: Alek & his Stormwalker print

I work internationally as a freelance artist. My work is used in books, magazines, tv, film and videogames.

Fine art prints of much of my work: Keith Thompson Art Prints

I use black colerase pencil on 110lb paper. Halfway through the process the art is scanned and glazed using soft light layers in Photoshop. The whole process is detailed in this Gnomon workshop dvd if you're interested: Character Design Techniques DVD

Hey, I'm a long time fan of yours.. and I have a question.. How do you stay focused? I'm having a hard time with this one.
:iconkeithwormwood:
Try to avoid and shut out any non-artistic distractions. Sometimes if you surround yourself with enough artistic inspirations they can help shut out the other stuff too. Piles of beautiful books, lots of art on the walls, and evocative music can all help your mind wander and travel freely.

I recently got Leviathan from the bookstore (trying desperately to escape the influx of vampire books) and the first thing that caught my eye was the cover.

"Steampunk!" I shouted to my brother. He rolled his eyes. :)

I have to say, your art makes this book all the more remarkable. I don't think I'd (truly!) be as interested in it if I weren't waiting for the next mechanik creation to leap out at me. :)

Thank you for making the story that much more enjoyable.

Please murder that man upstairs.

you'll have to prove you mean it.
