Knight Gallery™: An Artist's Showcase

Featured Artist: Dan Smith


Dan Smith likes almost everything on his pizza except anchovies. Operating as a high level agent (a.k.a. SMIF) for a top-secret espionage organization, SMIF defected during a routine safety inspection. his reasons include a distinct lack of illustrative opportunities in high level counter-intelligence, and no "Mr. Pibb" in the soda machines.

In between strictly enforced duck and cover drills and intensive Cheese Spread therapy, this bum vivant has defaced virgin surfaces for th likes of Steve Jackson Games, White Wolf, FASA, I.C.E., and R. Talsorian. Some magazines unable to shake free from his scribblings are Pyramid, White Wolf, Challenge, Ka*ge, Mech, and of course, SHADIS.

He never parks in the handicapped spaces, but has been known to take a bribe in the interest of regional safety.

SMIF enjoys flipping his wig in a capitalistic free market society and has no need for awards (other than monetary), as they are a standard for a bourgeois society in which he is not allowed to participate.

One is left to speculate what SMIF might do if he were able to untangle himself from his art table's unsightly umbilical cord. Polish his saladshooter marksmanship trophy? Listen to the second Mrs. Miller album? Watch the UPS truck drive by? It's a moot point. Buy American.
