This one is proving very difficult to photograph properly. It's an overall darker image than the others so far.

New studio: new work! This is the first in a series of 16x20" paintings.

In the year of the scavenger...

I'm in an apocalyptic mode lately- but that doesn't mean I'm feeling pessimistic. All aspects of life are shifting from one mode to another. This piece seems to reflect that feeling to me. New life is taking root and ovegrowing the brittle husks of the old world. These forms are flourishing in the ruins. I finally found a house in Austin, and I am very excited to live with my friends- two fellow RISD alums and my Single Lash partner Colin. I'll also have more space to work so I can go bigger and bigger. Now to get a job...

Finished a new piece for a client who just wanted something "colorful and contemporary". As an illustrator, I rarely receive a job with that much freedom and it was fun to let myself go totally wild on this one. The painting is mostly acrylic on a 30x40" canvas (which touched both sides of my tiny workspace). It doesn't come across in photos, unfortunately, but there are a few instances of silver metallic spatters throughout that add an exciting textural juxtaposition to the work. Overall, I'm quite happy and have already started a new piece that takes some of the explorations here even further. Nows your chance to call dibs.
