Woody Hearn’s Summary
I design, develop, and maintain a dynamic content website (GUComics.Com) with complex database backend; manage a large community of gamers; produce industry relevant, satirical/political cartoons five days a week and produce custom art/creative for large industry clients. I'm interested in expanding the reach of GU into more areas of the associated media. I'm also interested in producing an associated news arms to the existing site.
Woody Hearn’s Specialties:
My forte is illustrated satirical humor. But I also seem to do an adequate job with caricatures, political and social commentary. I've been dubbed a Photoshop Guru. And, despite some grumbling from the readers, have been lauded for how I manage the rather large community surrounding my site.
