Zombies in Love

This February I'm participating in a show entitled Zombies in Love at the Gallery Nucleus in Alhambra, CA. If you know me, you'll know that I absolutely adore zombies of all kinds; slow ones, fast ones, magical ones, rabid ones. So needless to say I was super excited when I was asked to take part in this show. Here's my piece for it, done in watercolor and acrylic.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I noticed I haven't done any portraits in quite a while so last night I had the urge to draw some celebrities I found interesting. For me, when doing portraits, the feeling of exultation or of utter despair is determined solely on whether or not a likeness is achieved. And having not practiced in months, I had a bit of difficulty. Nonetheless, these were still really fun to do. I definitely plan on doing more of these, and I've got a small list of names I'd like to draw.

Stanley Kubrick

Yoni Wolf

Tilda Swinton

Terry Richardson

Spike Jonze

The RGB

Here is my piece for the Secret Service show at Rotopol Press. Due to my schedule as of late, I ended up doing this digitally, although I still found ways of experimenting and having fun with it, playing up the camp factor, hahah. Check out Sam Bosma's kick ass piece on his blog.

A drawing I did as a birthday / going away present for Martin Kau, a great friend and artist.

I think this is one of the coolest things ever. If you haven't seen it, you should definitely check it out. It's a site conected to Flickr that lets you choose colors from a swatch and tons of photos with that color show up. But unlike the color swatch tool in the google image search, you get to mix and match multiple colors. You can get some really beautiful arrangements of thumbnails too.

Hello! For the past week or so I have been revamping my site completely and I'm proud to say I'm liking where it's headed. A much cleaner and simpler look than before, and also, it looks the same in all browsers (i think). With my old site, I would cringe whenever I had to look at it on a friend's computer or in a different browser. It should be up and running in the next couple days for sure.

In the meantime, here are a couple of sketches.

Versus

This next Friday the 5th of June will be the opening for the Versus exhibit at the Wind up Space in Baltimore. I will be one of about 15 artists participating. Please come out and see the show if you're in the area!

Here is my piece. I think the show title for it will be Wrath Vs. Serenity. Haven't come up with the real title yet. This was a lot of fun to do, and I hope it shows. I used some reference for this one, which made the process a lot smoother. I will definitely be doing that more often. Watercolor on paper, 16 x 20.

A couple progress shots.
