On the wall and on the easel . . . irons in the fire.

Here's more work in progress for the "Post Mortem" series. Through this series I am attempting to communicate the failings common in many of my relationships by creating a visual dialogue between figure and skull.

Undead King

I started this one a ways back, left it for dead and then resurrected it. Graphite and CS3.

Scout and Goblin

More freelance for the iPhone RPG.

Wizard

Here's an illustration for an unannounced IPhone RPG. It was created in Photoshop and based off a sketch of one of the models I often draw at the DigiPen Life Drawing sessions.



This is the sketch it was based off of.

Monkey on my back

While I was visiting with my folks this past Winter I came across an old painting I did entitled "Monkey on my back." It's essentially an illustration on various types of addictions. It's roughly a 4' x 3' Masonite panel done in charcoal, Conte crayon, colored pencil, ink, gesso, gold paint, collage, acrylic, oil, egg tempera, kitchen sink etc. - a true Mixed Media!!

It was exhibited at an arts festival back east and I overheard two people commenting on it.

The first said, "This isn't art!"

The second person said "This painting looks like how I feel when my wife asks me to mow the lawn!"

I think I like the second comment better!

Wrigley

Here's a drawing I did of my sister and brother-in-law's dog "Wrigley" for an Xmas gift. It's about 18"x24" and I used Sumi Ink, Conte Crayon and Acrylic. Wrigley's an energetic, playful pup so I did the drawing in one sitting and as loose as possible to emulate her personality.
