New Work, Kind Of

It's been another long while since I've posted, and so to avoid making a bunch of individual posts I'm just going to put a bunch of art in one. These are mostly paintings from shows that have happened over the past few months. They include a 'Day of the Dead' show at Subtext Gallery and some shows at Gallery 1988. The 1988 shows are-

"Is This Thing On?" A tribute to comedians, I got Phil Hartman.

"The Road To Shermer" A tribute to John Hughes.

"Crazy 4 Cult" The painting of Danny from "The Shining" will be included in an upcoming book about the Crazy 4 Cult shows coming out this summer.

And the last painting is for the "Harry Potter Tribute Blog" (lots of tributes these days). The blog is in anticipation of a show coming to Gallery Nucleus in July. A cool thing about this one is that anyone can submit artwork to be considered for the blog. So check it out, and get that painting you made of you and Harry getting married out to Nucleus.

Thanks for looking, I hope you all are having a good new year.

Don't die blog. Don't die!

Here are some recent paintings, done mostly as self promotion pieces. I didn't notice until they were all together that I like using clouds to fill in empty space, the secret is out!

Facebook is killing my blog.

Sorry for the not posting regularly like I said I would. Here's a new painting for a show at Lulubell Toy Bodega. The show is called "Almost True" and features artwork depicting historical events, this painting shows the first alien crush on a human in outer space. Woowoo.

Power In Numbers 2009

Here's my painting for the Power In Numbers show at Nucleus last month. It was another year of lots of great artwork by tons of talented people, see all the art here.

New Art?!

The six month break is over so I'll be posting new artwork over the next few days until I catch up with what I'm working on now. Happy New Year!

This work is from a show at Subtext in November with painters Sandra Equihua and Matte Stephens. What a great pair of artists to show with and an awesome gallery to show in.

Titmices

Chris and Shannon Prynoski, owners of Titmouse Animation, have their studio lobby filled with titmouse bird themed paintings and they asked me to do one, so here it is.

Crazy 4 Cult.

Hi. Here's my painting for Thursday's "Crazy 4 Cult" show at Gallery 1988. Cool preview pieces are on their blog. This year's opening will be hosted by Weird Al Yankovic!
