"WORGARD: VIKING BERSERKIR",
Sean Patty founded independent
Stronghold Studios in late 1997
when he created, authored,
illustrated and then published the
first part of his visionary 250-page
epic Dark Age graphic novel.
His work has been internationally
acclaimed, drawing comparisons to
legendary artists such as Frazetta
and Corben for its lushly detailed
and imaginative vision.
Following an LA Times interview in
2000 and a general dissatisfaction
with the comics industry monopoly
held over independent art comics
distribution by Diamond Comics
Distributors, Patty decided a hiatus
was in order and a new battle plan
necessary.
new Battleground Victory banner on the Worgard saga and a half dozen other
comics projects started while he was away.
Patty was born and raised in the frozen northern lands of Canada. His ancestry
is a blend of Norwegian, English and Irish blood.
Being a free-spirited man, he has travelled through the USA, lived in a
commune, worked a hundred jobs ranging from a butcher, salesman, machine
operator, barroom bouncer, steel mill burner, dock worker, gun maker,
supervisor, mechanic, equipment operator.
Having explored the various art forms of music, writing, poetry, painting,
sculpture and photography, Patty believes his true calling is as a storyteller
working in the most challenging medium of all: Comics/Sequential Art.
A self-taught artist, he lives alone in a cluttered house-studio in California
where, during the night at his drawing table, visions of the ancient Dark Ages
of Worgard unfurl before his mind's eye.
