Trying a New Technique
A bunch of months ago I was stoked to see that my art hero, Greg “Craola” Simkins, would be teaching a painting workshop at an upcoming tattoo convention. I signed up immediately… and plopped down my $50 deposit. Excitement mounted as weeks went on, but eventually I came to learn that my accordion player’s wedding was set to take place on the same weekend. I was to play...

12x12 Show | ArtDC Gallery
I painted up some variations on a theme for ArtDC Gallery’s 12x12 exhibit going on now! With Artomatic coming up (overlapping a little), I thought I’d play off of one of the pieces that’ll be up there, The House Eater. I consider these the children of that piece. :) ^ This is Homer. He eats homes. (12x12 acrylic on canvas) ^ This is Treena. She eats trees. (12x12 acrylic...

The Anatomy of the Bubble
Lately I’ve become fascinated by the idea of including bubbles in some of my current pieces. So of course, rather than go online and look through millions of available stock photos of actual bubbles to get a quick/accurate sense of how I might approach this, I just lazily sat on the floor with canvas and paint and tried to reach into my mind’s eye to figure out what a bubble should...

Paintings in Progress
A few months ago I decided a couple of things. First I decided I’m going to become a “famous” artist (which basically means I want to get in to Juxtapoz magazine— not sure how long this will take, but I’ll do it)! Second, I decided to try to learn to create art in a completely foreign medium (acrylic paint). I’ve been a doddle-y oil-painter for the last few...

Hey, Tumblr! I'm testing you out!
I reckon this is my introductory blog post. I just want to get a good sense of what I can get away with as far as what all can be included in a post and how it might look. For example, can I embed a video into a text post? Let’s give it a try! That should be a video of me workin’ on a painting… What else? What else? Oh I know! I’ll make a bulleted list. Ready? Stuff...
