Last Year's Projects: I recently finished 28 billboard paintings for the downtown scene in the Jack Black movie, Gulliver's Travels. I'm also working on the character and set designs for the new t.v. series called Bugzz and Dr. Hill. I also have a new iphone app called "The Art of Mike Butkus" which was just released and can be viewed on Itunes. Last but not least, I have two books out called "How to Draw Zombies" and "How to Draw Vampires" and am now finishing the third, "Fallen Angels".
