Jazz - Beatty, Gary Scott

. .

Résumé :
Award winning veteran comic writer and artist Gary Scott Beatty's jazz piano man Dean Fontessa returns in five standalone stories on a central theme that come together with a twist - like a masterful, cool jazz solo! Beatty's illustration style, inspired by jazz album cover design, drops readers into the late night music clubs of 1957. A fantastic, innovative and unique blend of art and text to depict the rhythm of the times!

Biographie:
Xeric Grant Recipient Gary Scott Beatty read his first comic book, a beat up old Tin Tin hardcover, in his grade school library some time before the '60s Batman craze. The first alternative comic he produced (They were called underground then) was on his high school's ditto machine, after hours, without permission. Nearly three decades later the tools and format have changed, but Gary is still producing printed pieces that communicate and entertain.



His current projects include Xeric Grant Winner Jazz: Cool Birth, The One with artist Aaron Warner, Seductions with Oz artist Bill Bryan and Adam Among the Gods with James Lyle.



His coloring and lettering for 3 Boys Productions' Students of the Unusual has appeared since the popular indy comic's first issue - now his logo design graces each cover. The controversial Wedding of Popeye and Olive Gary colored for Ocean Comics was discussed on Good Morning America, in The New York Times, Time magazine and Newsweek. His work with nationally syndicated cartoonist Aaron Warner included coloring Adventures of Aaron Sunday strips, producing the Sparky and Tim collection cover and typography and coloring for much of Aaron's advertising studio work. His cover coloring for Scott Rosema's August are now definitive of the character. His production assistance in Omega7's America's Forgotten Children publication helped lead to the recovery of several missing children. He letters for Viper and for Kaso Comics, has written scripts for Nicky Cruz Outreach and, locally, produces a full color, monthly entertainment magazine....
