Recent Stuff

So I went down to Artspace on opening night to see my work not win some stuff. disappointed but more motivated after that. Show is up through March so go take a look.

Also, I really like the features over at www.thecreativelives.com

I am going to paint more. i call myself an artist so I better start making the stuff.

excited

just got word that two of my most recent pieces from the under the skin series have made it into a show at artspace. the show opens to the public on the first friday in March. im gonna make it out to the opening and i hope others will as well.

New piece in VAE

Imagine at VAE gallery in downtown Raleigh opens tomorrow night at 6 pm. Go check out the good stuff they got out there. I have a piece in the show I think, so go hype it up.

Teacher Workday Progress

I sat down yesterday to work for about 6 straight hours and this is what came from that. It is a second try at my older brother Scott because I did not like the other one at all. I got the self portrait and the portrait of Jason framed this week and will submit them to a show at artspace. I submitted a different work to VAE for a show called imagine this past week also. If it gets in I will post it. If not, I will try and forget about it as soon as possible.

This picture is still unfinished, but after yesterday I wont be able to look at it for a few days. I will post the final product when it gets done.

new piece

I think Im going to call this series under the skin. this is another one of my brothers and is the same size and format as the others. its not finished yet but well on its way.

new studio space

I'm finally settled into my new home in downtown Raleigh and I love it. There is something really cool about being in the city, and when it starts to warm up outside I can start to enjoy it. For right now I am still working out of my bedroom, but the space is bigger and I have room to move around and store some stuff.

not dead

its been a long while since i last posted anything, but with the holidays and my move i just didn't find the time to work or update. I still don't have any images to share but I have been doing a ton of internet searching to get ideas and stuff and here are some of my favorite finds.
