Don't Touch My Head, Pervert

"Uncle Tom + Aunt Anna" visited last nite and brought several very cool gifts. They are in first place in the trying to spoil the baby race. I'm not sure if you can read it, but the pink onesie says "Don't touch my head, pervert."

Studio Visit Magazine

I have a two page spread of some of my artwork in the latest issue of Studio Visit Magazine. I'm not sure when or where you can buy it, but it sure does look cool.

He's Here!!!

Nursery Mural is Finished!

It took a while longer than I expected, but I think that the completed mural looks fantastic. There's a lot going on, but I think that it will hopefully spark the little guys imagination when he gets older. Again, big thanks to Tom for helping me with the design. The other night we were kicking around the idea of producing a children's book based off of the mural design, stay tuned to how that goes.

Nursery Mural Update

My friend Tom and I finished drawing most of the mural yesterday. Today I started painting and got about half way finished. I think that it looks really cool, hopefully the baby will too!

Nursery Mural

I've always hated murals. However, now that I'm painting one in my son's nursery that is going to kick ass I guess I can't say that I hate murals anymore. Here's a few preview pictures. Yeah, I know, the photos are sideways. Deal with it, they're artsy.

Sketchbook #1

I was reflecting on the work that I did for the Igloo Show (still up at Black Maria Gallery until March 22nd) and noticed that I had been putting pieces of jewelry hanging from tree branches into several of the paintings. I'm not quite sure why I did that, or what the imagery means, but I decided to do some further exploration of the jewelry theme in my sketchbook for a week. Each day I did a sketch that had to include jewelry somehow. Here's the first one, with more to come each day (hopefully), and a different theme each week.

The Igloo Art Show!

Everything went well at the Igloo Tornado opening last nite. Thanks to everyone who braved the rain and came to our show, drank our beer, and bought our work! The show will be up for another month, so if you weren't able to make it to the opening you still have time to check it out. There are more photos over on the Igloo Tornado web site

New piece. Currently untitled. For show and sale at the Black Maria Gallery this Saturday, the 23rd.

New Work

I've got a few new pieces up for sale in the artwork section. I call them subversive wallpaper pieces because they look harmless and decorative from a distance, but when you look at them closely there are some odd things going on. They will be in the Igloo Tornado show in February.
