ghost house

hey everyone,
just wanted to toss up a quick post. finished my house ghost painting, made a dead octopus and drew a pretty sweet matador for my new short series on bull fighting. here are two out of the three!

(ugh, i have such a hard time getting dark blue to look right in the computer. this is pretty close though)



when i get a good footing on paper i will post the matador sketches. there will be about 5-6 paintings in all. i want to show the unpalatable violence bull fighting and the cruelty to the animals and how it is decorated with flashy showmanship. serious, right?
anywho, see ya later!

dinosaurs vs vampires

hey everyone
so the past weekend we had the opening for the halloween art show up in boston, and it was pretty awesome. it was just a few of us in the show, and we actually had a sponsor, bear flag wine, and then there was a showing of "night of the living dead" at a bar/restaurant down the street on newbury. i gotta say, as much as i love new york, boston is sooo much cleaner and nicer looking. man, new york is a dump.
any who, here are my paintings from the show!
my bram strokers dracula, props to the coolest dracula (in my opinion)


phantom of the opera

and my halloween costumes












i also had my "neville longbottom" piece along with "my fears are behind me" piece. hopefully stuff sells, but if not i get to hang them on my walls! i have grown pretty attached to neville.

and of course, i get more ideas that fit the theme of a show After the show itself. heres a sketch for a new painting im gonna do this week. its partially based off a best fwends song.



in other news, my website revamping is pretty much ready to get underway, now i just have to have some show me how to work dreamweaver again. and my matador series sketches are slowly coming along.
anyways, time for sleep. later!

Brief service announcement

Hey everyone
so i know it has been forever since my last post, but for good reason! my roommates and i finally moved up to washington heights. i eat enchiladas and fantastic cheap sandwiches all the time, its awesome.
sadly though i will be taking a leave of absence for a little bit, to redo my website and work on some new paintings for a gallery and promo stuff.
peace out ya'll!

intermission

hey everyone
yeah, its been a while since my last post. been a bit busy and haven't gotten to make alot of new stuff, BUT! i got a whole ton of new ideas and sketches going, as well as the desire to finish old things. i got a pretty sweet and fairly simple idea for a few paintings on matadors, the bull fights, and a few portraits. i want to start to make a lot more smaller pieces as well, as i got an esty account and want to start the selling out early. more about that to come! in the mean time, here is a page from my brand new sketch book (i finally retired the old one!)
enjoy!


ps-those are all sparks song titles they are saying,

bull runner

hey everyone
so my roommates and i may be moving soon! nothing is settled yet, but we are hoping to get out of our shitty building.
ive also been working on my new website, and ive realized i have a TON of stuff to go on it! there may even be a store section with original paintings and prints. it's gonna take a while to construct but i want to get it up and running as soon as i can so i can start pushing for more illustrations jobs.
anywho, heres my most recent painting!

"runner's high"

here is sneak peak at a secret project a few friends and i are working on. more to come

i picked up this ssweet new brush pen the other day, and i love it. i kinda miss drawing recklessly and not as meticulously.
