508- in the summer the oils awake...

I started up an old oil painting that was hibernating for the winter. Has a long way to go. But that's the fun of oils.

507- Veggielution art show.

I did this piece for an upcoming at benefit for a local community garden. I am happy with it but might give it another try or add to it.

506- one done

I have all my pieces for my upcoming group show done, and I am relived. This show kinda came out of nowhere, and caught me totally by surprise. I am really glad to be in it, especially with some really good friends. anyhoo, here are some more pieces that will be up.

505- art show

Working on paintings for a small art show with friends in a donut shop. First time for everything.

495- simpsons

I grew up loving the Simpsons and lately I have re-fallen in love with them and Futurama. So I did some paintings to sell at APE this weekend.Sorry for lack of posts, but I have been busy with the Zinefest, APE and my wedding!
But this blog will not be abandoned.
I added my twitter feed recently.
and will add mail order soon, shhhh, its a secret.

491- paintings or stalling?

I am thinking about selling little paintings from my favorite moments of one of my favorite shows of all time, the simpsons...and some moments from futurama, another fantastic show. but maybe i am just posting this because I was drawing a new comic page, and it looked kinda crummy and I "needed" to step away for a moment. The quotes are for the sinking suspicious feeling that I am stalling. hmmm.  

Hey I will be A.P.E. coming next month. these paintings will be there too.

487- SF Zinefest!

I just finished table-ing at the SF Zinefest this weekend, it was a blast. Had a lot of fun talking to people and since its free, we got a great assortment of different patrons. Good show, probably my favorite one I do all year. Got some nice prints and met some great artists. Huzzah!

460* - BEAUTIFUL SUNNY AFTERNOON

SPACEMAN SPIFF, about three feet by four feet, something like that. Black, Red and White oils on canvas. I  started this last fall, and have not had the will to jump back into it, hibernating I guess. But anyhoo, today was so pretty, I had to be outside. I am going to wait for today's paints to dry and will go back in with more white and red, obscure the lines more.



*-somehow I skipped #460 in my post count, so I had to fix it.

446- importance of good photos of your art

I could not take a good photograph of this painting, they all come out so dark, I know with photography its all about light. again, this one is acrylic on paper, about 11 x 17"

433- gone huntin'

                                                              a cartoon alien going huntin'

432- fox painting

                                                  a little painting, six by four, of a red fox.

427- bats & MMXII

 I was cleaning off my desk today, going back to a vertical angle, and decided to get some quick little paintings done before hand. I was also watching Batman the animated series, so... the little devil guy is I guess more to do with the coming new year.

 

they are just acrylic on a really cheap pressed fiber paper, that I love.

#425 or something like that, Hummingbird!

this is a painting i did for a coworker's gift, she is not from California, so i painted a Californian Hummingbird for her.

bat reading H.P. Lovecraft

This is a Bat painting I did a few months ago for a Bat Conservatory Benefit show. It's a bat reading H.P. Lovecraft of course, what else would a bat read?
