Comic book artist Steve Rude, a pivotal figure in the industry's indie-book revolution of the early '80s, will present a May 4-5 painting workshop in San Antonio.

Steve Rude paints a canvas at his studio. The artist got his start in comics in Wisconsin but now lives in Arizona.

We caught up with Rude via phone from his home in Arizona for a preview of the workshop and insight into the ever-evolving comics industry. We also asked him about his return to indie publishing using Kickstarter as a crowdfunding source. You're held in high regard as a painter, penciler and inker, but this workshop is specifically focused on the painting side of your work, correct?

Everyone will see it a little differently. Some people will say,"Boy, that was fun and entertaining." Others are going to say,"I want to be like that" — just like I wanted to be Jack Kirby and Andrew Loomis and Norman Rockwell. It's a thing that gets passed on to everybody who happens to be there.
