I'm Horrible With Titles


Well, there it is all finished. The colors are a bit more accurate than the close up image. I'm super happy with the piece. It was nice to finally get this image out of my head and onto a canvas. I have had this idea for a while, and did a preliminary drawing collage piece some months back. The piece is 36"X72" Unfortunately there are some little nuggets in the piece that don't translate in the photo, small drawings and text that have been scraped into the paint.

I've Been Traveling


I have been very disconnected from the cyber world the last few months. Holiday travels and school have kept me out of the studio as well. The last couple of weeks I have been in a painting frenzy, trying to wrap up some pieces for my portfolio, so that I can pursue some gallery connections. This is a close up of an element, that resides in my newest painting. I finished this piece at one in the morning the day before yesterday. I have to speculate that all the flying over the holidays may have had some influence on the imagery. I can't help but think of plane crashes every time I step foot on one.
