Jason Soles is a sculptor based in Seattle who has just come off of a Kickstarter campaign to fund his new book\u00a0Apocrypha.\u00a0<\/em>From his bio:<\/p>\n

My work reflects my obsession with antiquity and the passage of time; through it I explore tradition, myth, and belief. Spanning the gamut from the pharaonic funeral masks of unknowable space gods to the tactile remains of pre-Christian deities, my sculptures are the relics of fantastical civilizations and lost tribes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Shawn Langley is a freelance comic\/concept artist from southern Ohio. From his bio:<\/p>\n

I’ve been drawing comics for years, but what I’ve loved drawing the most is the bizarre. I I’ve always loved drawing the things that came from my own imagination, and those things always seemed to lean towards the horror genre. I love monsters, aliens…things with claws…things that creep you out, or give you nightmares.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
