“New Art Week” continues with this fun little set of paintings inspired by one of my favorite shows – “Gravity Falls.” I know I have raved about this show in the past, but it really is a great show. Meant for kids, there are a number of inside jokes only adults will get. Plus, it […]
Read more "Gravity Falls"I am sharing new artwork every day this week and to kick things off, here is my piece inspired by Hayao Miyazaki’s, “Princess Mononoke.” This film is exceptional in that it deals with the complexities of humans coexisting with nature while still pursuing technological progress. This painting is inspired by the mask worn by San, […]
Read more "“Mononoke”"Happy Halloween! I have a lot of work to do in preparation for tonight’s festivities (i.e., I still need to make Chipper’s costume), so, in the meantime, please enjoy this spooky painting titled, “Hush.” This painting is my take on the best “big bads” in all the Buffyverse, The Gentlemen. The villains of the Sn4Ep10 […]
Read more "“Hush”"Season 2 of “Stranger Things” debuts tomorrow and I couldn’t be more excited! It is easily the best thing Netflix has ever produced and definitely one of the best episodic shows ever created. It is full of the 1980’s nostalgia that appeals to people like me – a nerdy, science fiction-obsessed, adventure-seeking kid who grew […]
Read more "“Demogorgon”"I promised to showcase some of my recent spooky-themed work this week, but due to acceptance into a show, I’m going to delay those posts. In the meantime, here’s a new painting in a similar vein. I was thinking a lot about villains and the idea of monsters or a “big bad” like you see […]
Read more "Bill Cipher"I am so excited that October is finally upon us and while it’s not much cooler here in Florida, it is definitely getting more creative. To celebrate October’s arrival, please enjoy this little painting titled, “Surprise!” It is a sweet, little, baby facehugger jumping out of its alien pod – perfect for this dark and […]
Read more "“Surprise!”"You are cordially invited to the Orlando Museum of Art’s monthly art party, 1st Thursdays, on Thursday, October 5th from 6:00 -9:00pm. The theme is “Ghosts and Ghouls” – obviously! – and I will have three paintings on display. All three paintings are inspired by the spookier side of pop culture and include references to the shows “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” […]
Read more "1st Thursdays at the OMA"These little paintings measure 4” x 4” each and are, of course, continuing my fascination with the films of Hayao Miyazaki. “Tree Spirit” depicts one of the many tiny spirits who live in the forest in the film, “Princess Mononoke.” They are indicators of a happy, healthy and thriving environment. As the forest is destroyed, […]
Read more "Tree Spirit & No-Face"The “Black and White” Art Show has come to an end and it’s time to collect my paintings. I am so grateful for another opportunity to work with Parker Sketch, the curator of the show. Parker is tasked with organizing the art events at The Barefoot Spa and is one of the best art advocates […]
