Film Is Not Dead

The good folks over at the website Film Is Not Dead It Just Smells Funny featured my work for the second time, this month and contacted me to ask if I would be one of their featured artists.

The Modern Wig

Normal people write papers for art history classes. I sure hope it was worth the rash this wig gave me on my forehead :(

My brother thinks I look like Sean Penn and Paul says it's Tom Waitsish. More to be found on flickr.

At David's Funeral

It's the prettiest little church in the world.

Bear Feet

Don't worry. It'll all start to make sense as the project marches steadily toward getting so big it kills me.

Added bonus: the feet were really fun to make and are even more fun to wear. Anyone want to try them on just ask.

Also: here's a new painting.





Computers do crazy things to the colour of paintings.

Taking photographs of contact sheets! Not my best idea yet.

One day I'll get a scanner.

The Corporate Life

TGIF.

Some recent drawings done in the early thought process of the recent work I'm exploring. Thinking about the idea of loving something so much you destroy it, as in the love children try and express for family pets and the patience the pets need to display in the face of neck-crushing affection.







And some garbage and a fly that was grossing me out this morning:

Summer

Oh yes. I always forget. Summer season actually is actually eating-freshly-picked-berries-until-I'm-sick-to-my-stomach season. Let the magic commence.

My grandma used to play here (as I attempted to illustrate here)!

Went for ice cream at the Twist & Crème with my brother and his girl.









We actually decided to go after finally watching a horrible (amazing) zombie movie we'd bought which was filmed locally - including at my new favorite ice cream destination.

Two Painters I Admire

The Twins

Oil.

The One-Eyed German Shepherd

I couldn't stop thinking about the one eyed German Shepherd all weekend. I had to do it.

I am going to go paint tomorrow. I couldn't stop thinking about the German Shepherd with one eye I met last night on the walk home from work. I am going to make him into a painting. Painting tomorrow and if I have time before they close, the gym. I am excited.

The Cardshark

Yeah, I went there.
