A Story About Tyme

Payen The Time Killer - Progress On Story And Illustration

A Story About Tyme ~ Progress On Story And Illustration Rendered on mixed media 11 X 14 98lb paper using pencil, pen and Ink.

Payen is Tyme's brother, his special talent is killing time. Payen aim is always true, he never misses the mark. I used E's brother Sean for my model, he is holding an 80lb mini crossbow. E and Sean are my oldest daughters children. We are writing this story together.

PAYEN...The English surname Payen is patronymic origin, being one of those names derived from the first name of the original bearer's father. The source of the name can be traced to the Old English word "paien", which was derived from the Latin word "paganus" meaning "rustic or countryman".
