On The Scaly Shoulders Of Giants

The show is up! I've posted many of the paintings on this blog but you can check out the rest here. This one is called "Rumble Time."

Smaug

Happy Spring, here's another painting for my upcoming Gallery1988.5 online show called "On The Scaly Shoulders Of Giants." The show is up on March 28th.

Snow Paintings

I really like painting snow scenes. I'm pretty sure it goes back to visiting my cousin in snowy Wrightwood, CA when I was a kid, and of course the Hoth scenes from "The Empire Strikes Back."

The Giant's Lair

Here's a new painting for an upcoming show. It's gouache on paper but the tree guy is a piece of cut out paper to make him stand out a bit more.

Monsters Vs. Aliens

Hi, I'm finishing up a painting to post soon but until then I wanted to let you all know that at the beginning of the Super Bowl half-time a commercial for the new movie "Monsters Vs. Aliens" will air. My friend Josh Pruett was a story artist on the movie which is very cool. Like the movie the spot will be in 3-D which you need glasses for, which you can pick up at most grocery stores, which is where you need to go anyway because you are probably out of milk.

Under the Influence: A Tribute to The Beastie Boys

UPDATE! See the show is online here.

This Thursday night "Under the Influence" opens at Gallery 1988, this year we are honoring The Beastie Boys.

"Licensed To Ill" was THE album to have in sixth grade at Benito Juarez Elementary in Anaheim and "Paul Revere" was THE song to have memorized, then why did I pick to paint "Intergalactic"? I don't know.

I'll put up a link to the show when it goes online so you can check check check it out in the comfort of your own home. Oh yeah, I picked "Intergalactic" so I could paint a robot alien.

Character Doodles

Here's a page of characters done for fun.

And check out this cool Flickr set of kid game cards.

Happy New Year!
