An artist hard at work will always be worth talking about--just check out the Bill Wadman 'More Drabbles' portfolio. I actually covered his original 'Drabble' series earlier this year and he already has more work to feature.
Although his work seems to have a natural tendency towards darkness both in technique and subject matter, Bill Wadman's 'More Drabbles' series delves more so into the seedier side of life. Yet he still manages to imbue a sense of fantasy and even humor as to counteract total darkness.
