Hey all

Apologies for the Tom Reese interview, I think the file was too big to upload...I've been freelancing a lot more lately and haven't had any time to paint but I do have a new (as in unpainted) panel in the garage here that I'll work on over the next month or so and will post pics of the progress.

a drawing colored in photoshop

drew this while watchng tv tonight, liked it, colored with pink and yellow in photoshop.

Committed, perhaps overly.

This is going into a group show at Applegate Gallery on Dec. 18th along with another painting. Should be fun. I'll post the info soon. I initially was going to take pics of the evolution of the painting and post them periodically but lost interest so here it is finished! - the colors look drab online...much more saturated in person~sigh.

A short interview

Heres a short little interview I did this summer for the Design for Humanity event. Pretty neat.

Dizzy boy

I'm smitten by this image so I keep remaking it in different media. This is an etching and aquatint number. I only got a couple good ones because it was impossible to get good registration so the embossed edge of the plates looked rather crappy. Anyway heres a good one.

Gas

This is the painting from the show in LA last month. I had very little time so I defaulted to the ocean stuff. I grabbed an old painting, sawed a piece off the end and painted the lady holding the jellyfish over the top of it. I made a drypoint of the same image but I don't think I have a scan of it...I'll look. I'll post pics of my graduate show soon if anyone is interested.

Nowbrow at Wal-Art

I have a piece in this group show opening this weekend. There are some very good artists participating. In spite of my distaste for being called a "lowbrow" artist I'm looking forward to checking it out. Lowbrow! ~shudder~ why does that strike me as so lame?
