My time has been sucked up by other, more worldly needs lately, so here is another video of my artwork from around Spring. I created it in the bowels of the night while my insomnia had me staring at the ceiling. The music lends an Edward Scissorhands / dreamy feel to the composition. All theContinue reading “Busy, but…”

Video of Recent Art
I’m truly sorry I’ve not done anything in the last couple of days. I’m working through proposals at work (to pay for my art!) and skin cancer to boot, but last night at 3ish, I made this video of recent art (going back to October (ish). I’ll get creative again soon! I kind of wantContinue reading “Video of Recent Art”
Urban Tree
Tonight’s drunk art is from my walk this morning. Before anyone tells me telephone poles are round…. Because drivers in my area are attracted to the poles, they are actually rectangular and thick, so it’s accurate – maybe not painted very well, but aesthetically correct. I should say something artistically relevant but I’ll leave itContinue reading “Urban Tree”
Cherry Lightning Filler
This started as a scrabble on the canvas, and asking myself “What can I do with it?” Et voilá! I’d kind of like to scrub the tree and start over but there’s other ideas that need to spill out into reality. Why? It’s reminiscent of my early work, and I know I can do better.Continue reading “Cherry Lightning Filler”
The Quiet Hours
I didn’t want today to go by without doing a doodle, so here you go. Technically mixed media in layers. Acrylic, water color, stencils, and a dash of magic. Better viewed on a bigger monitor, I can barely see the trees on my phone. But then, it’s a doodle, there’s more room for imperfections.
It’s Been a Minute
In case you thought I’d disappeared, I’d just shifted to other art forms.
The Watcher
My favorite time of the year is here, Fall/Halloween. I’ve geared up the darker art to celebrate. This one I call “the Watcher”. I love gargoyles, so I painted one. The bushes are a combination of fantasy and berries I encounter on my daily walks. Techniques used include spray paint, acrylic paint, brushwork, finger-painting, andContinue reading “The Watcher”
Ghost in the Well
Ghost in the Well is an abstract mixed media piece combining elements of nature and fantasy.
Eye of Heaven
If you ever look at a human eye up close, it’s one of the most beautiful natural creations. I was thinking of this when I started this project. At the same time, I wanted to create the impression of what one would see looking up at the moon. The moon here represents the reflection ofContinue reading “Eye of Heaven”
Castle’s Fall
Nestled in the hills overlooking the sleepy valley, the Sandmen of Castle Dream-guard keep watch on the distance. For in the far-off mists the armies of the nightmare realm gather for their nefarious purposes. The castle is modeled on my favorite, Lichtenstein Castle. Spray Paint and Acrylic on Canvas, 18 x 24. Unframed. Available for purchase here.
Harvest Knights
“Harvest Knights” Acrylic and Spray Paint on Canvas, 18 x 24. Deep in the night, under the blood moon a pair of knights rush along a deserted road, past ruins of long forgotten folk towards an urgent engagement. At least that’s the idea. The skills never match the concept.
Rites of Spring
Deep in the night as the vernal equinox reaches its apex; while the moon blankets the land in cold light; the sleeping children of Nature stir. The trees begin the dance of awakening, twisting and undulating in reverent celebration. Their movement coaxes the Earth Mother to coalescence; like the creation of a galaxy, swirling, spinning, concentrating the forcesContinue reading “Rites of Spring”
