Dusk – the bird
on the fence
A contemporary of mine

It has been way too long since I’ve posted anything on the blog, so here are a couple things that are going on.

1.) The new website is in the works. Expect it by the end of the year.

2.) I am looking at grad school in the northeast. Soon I will be able to write grants and get the government to pay for my supplies and time.

3.) I’ve started to do some quieter work, which I will be posting a little at a time in the next couple weeks. Sort of like the haiku piece at the top.

A terrified bird and some Fuzzballs



This is called “Terrified of Flight”. (anyone a 764 Hero fan?) Anyway, it is the latest paper piece for the Pulp show at Gallery 110, which is next wednesday night. I’ll be there and dressed up. So come on down for some free wine and some cool art. It will rock.
Oh and this is a cool picture of my cats. I know, I’m probably crossing the line into crazy cat person if I start putting images of my cats up in my art blog, but come on…you think they’re cute don’t you?

Pulp Update

Pulp is coming up on the 30th of May, and that’s pretty soon. I need to get my butt into overdrive. I have two pieces that are not done yet that I want in the Pulp show, but here is one more that I did finish, which I am totally stoked on.
Anyone who doesn’t know, all of the artwork will be $110. Just like Gallery 110! So you should stop in and see if you can pick up some stuff for cheap and benefit my gallery, cuz that would definitely rule.

Battle Hymns……

is easily the best Suicide Machines Album. That said, here is a painting that has absolutely nothing to do with the Suicide Machines. This piece is for another beer delivery man, Paul from Click for those of you in the industry……

Awesome Weekend


This weekend was the best. I spent so much time at studio and actually got a piece that I’ve been preparing for at least two months about three quarters of the way through. I also made this sketch of a bird with a helmet….I’m wondering if he should be in a recognizable city or just a random city……..

Pulp 2.2

The Pulp show is coming up at Gallery 110. For anyone who doesn’t know the show will be on the 26th, all of the work in the show will be on paper, and will be priced at $110. I intend to have at least five pieces up in the show, including a couple pieces previously priced much higher than $110. You’ll have to come to see which pieces though. This is my first piece for the show: “Two Welds and a Chance of Showers.”

The Hive Gallery and other Updates

This coming Saturday, the fifth, I will have a piece up at the Hive Gallery in The May Group Show. I sent in “Cloud Cover” because the gallery director really seemed to like that piece. For those of you who haven’t seen it:

So, I just had a business card professionally printed for the first time. It came out pretty well. I am happy with it. Hopefully it helps. Let me know if you’d like one and I’ll send you one.

Meanwhile I’ve been at work in the studio a little bit more. I finished another piece in the Boob Tube series today. I think it is probably the best one to date. The birds really did it for me.

I also was working in the sketchbook today and came up with a couple things. Actually the one character is kind of old, but I like him, and I keep drawing him. Nothing wrong with a vampire bat/tv set.

The other is another bird with a stereo. Anyone who went to the Vashon Island show knows that that is one of my favorite subjects.

In other news, I just made a cd and sent it to Aardvark Art, a new company in Loveland , Colorado. They are going to be making some prints of a couple of my bird pieces and of “Cookie”, a personal favorite. I will keep you updated.

Slow and Easy Evening


I’ve been trying to rework my artist biography, statement, resume and all of that business stuff this evening. Unfortunately, I think it will end up being a much longer project than one night’s time will allow for, but, the exploration of surface will be coming out soon.

Here’s another bird drawing in the meanwhile.

St. Louis is Listening


So last night I was pouring through the racks in the thrift store and I found a couple oldies but goodies. Or as it were mid 90’s stuff that I was all about, and I’ve been sitting here with headphones on in my living room drawing stuff up. I’m really trying to get the travelling images out. People waiting for the bus, walking, biking, whatever. Here is a piece influenced by the weather my parents have been experiencing in new york though….

Today is Gorgeous and I am full of Ideas


Funny what nice weather can do for the creative spark. Not to mention, I only have eight deliveries today so I can start painting at like two thirty instead of five. That is so very not ominous. Anywho, I hope everyone in my area is enjoying the weather and that the weather is awesome in other states too!
