Steve Spatucci: The Camp Out - A Jabloo Adventure
http://stevespatucci.blogspot.com/2011/10/camp-out-jabloo-adventure.html
The Camp Out - A Jabloo Adventure. I've just finished writing and illustrating a storybook using my Jabloo. Characters. The story is aimed at kids 3 to 6. You can read The Camp Out. I created the Jabloo. Gang back in 2006, and this was the first story I conceived for them. There's something about the camping out in the woods that's always evoked the idea of creativity for me - maybe it has something to do with telling stories around the campfire, though I don't think I've ever done that. I put the story ...

Steve Spatucci: A Perfectly Reasonable Explanation
http://stevespatucci.blogspot.com/2013/12/thoughts-from-2013.html
A Perfectly Reasonable Explanation. A special note: This long post has spawned its own blog. To read more of these writings, please visit A Perfectly Reasonable Explanation. If someone was immortal, how would we even know? Maybe they're only going to live to be 10,000. Let's not assume. I am not above adding an already-completed item to a To Do List. Those still count. When will Billy Joel write a sequel to "The Ballad of Billy the Kid"? Cowards have ruined throat-clearing. When I want to clear my th...

Steve Spatucci: Vect-o-Grunge Illustrations
http://stevespatucci.blogspot.com/2012/01/girl-with-dragon-tattoo-illustrations.html
As a total spur-of-the-moment, just-for-fun experiment, I took a whack at rendering Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist, the lead characters from the recent "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" film. At first, Lisbeth's eyes and nose ring were round, but they stood out as the only curved shapes, so I went back and replaced them with flat shapes later. Restricting the shapes this way seemed to work - it kept the style cohesive. Detail - before and after grunge. And that's it. Here are the final pieces:.

Steve Spatucci: Corkboard
http://stevespatucci.blogspot.com/2011/11/corkboard.html
I've been thinking about a way to share friends' projects for a while now, and I finally went ahead and built one. Check out my corkboard. I knew I didn't want to build a traditional portal. Whether it's a bunch of images in a grid, a combination of text and images (like blog posts), or a gallery with sequential images with one large/featured image and a bunch of thumbnails or navigation - I didn't want anything like that. I played with the site more and added two more features. The first was stack/u...

Steve Spatucci: Breach Point Castle
http://stevespatucci.blogspot.com/2009/07/breach-point-castle.html
In 2002, a friend of mine started a conversation with a group of friends by saying, "Hey, does anyone remember Brigantine Castle? Wasn't the just the best thing. Back in the day? Brigantine Castle and pier in its prime. The abandoned area of the beach where Brigantine Castle once stood. Inset: the same area in 1987, not long after the castle had burned down. I did some online research and found Dark In The Park. The Pirate's Den - the restaurant that once stood across the street from. That last song by T...

My serialized supernatural thriller Breach Point is now complete. When last mentioned on this blog. In the late 2000s, Breach Point Castle was a screenplay featuring a 20 year old college student named Clara who investigates the mysterious fire that destroyed a haunted attraction in the 1980s.
