Integrative Medicine

Huge Update!

Here are few things from my finals and a few from before finals from TAD.

From the top down. The first two are for an article about the Kentucky Derby. Then one about Integrative Medicine. The fourth picture is my final for Figure 4 with Francis Vallejo. The fifth is my first idea for Virginia Wine from a while back. The sixth is my final project for Portfolio class with John English and Brent Watkinson, and the last is a master copy of Isaac Levitan which I painted in oil on canvas, 2 1/2 feet by 3 1/2 feet.

Kansas City Gallery Show Tonight!

To anyone who's in the Kansas City area: tonight is the opening for the Disney art show that I'm in! It'll be at the Buttonwood Art Space, and I hope you guys in the area can go see my work. I won't be there in person, but I'll be there in spirit!

 Manga Publishing is Dying

Announcements!

Sorry I haven't been too active on here, a lot's been going on on my end. Like how I'll be in a gallery show next week!

My art is on its way to the gallery now, as you can see above...The show is a tribute to Disney animation, and it'll be at the Buttonwood Art Space in Kansas City, MO. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend due to a schedule conflict. So if you're in Kansas City on June 1st, I hope you can go check out the show (and take pictures for me!).

And also...I have a portfolio site now!

Go check it out HERE

Thanks for reading!

I found out last night that my piece Zombie won the gold medal at this year’s Richmond Illustrator’s Club Juried Show! Ditto and British Security Bees were also accepted into the show. Thanks to the Richmond Illustrators’ Club and all the jurors! The show information is below. If you’re town that night, come out and enjoy some bad-ass work from some bad-ass illustrators.

Also, buy me a beer.

Or two.

Mushrooms!

Redid two paintings that I posted earlier, and painted two more.  The best part of doing this series is that I got to cook 'em and eat 'em!

Some storyboards for the upcoming comic book. 

A little sneak peek; we follow the misadventures of one sidecharacter named Sneaks in these panels. While venturing out looting, following his greedy nose, the little rascal happens on a great find accidentally. The type that shakes the world and sets off power struggles.

More to come.

La Isla de la Munecas or The Island of the Dolls

The following is a true story.

A hermit named Don Julian lived on an island south of Mexico City. Although he had a family, he chose to live the last 50 years of his life alone. Julian became obsessed with the death of a young girl who drowned in a canal near the island. One day, he found a doll floating in the water and tied it to a tree to appease the spirit of the young girl. Over the years, he would fish lost broken dolls out of the water. He would even trade his goods for dolls in a local town. Eventually, the hermit tied hundreds of dolls to the trees of his island, creating a shrine for a soul that was lost too soon. In 2001, Don Julian was found dead. He drowned in the same canal as the girl. People say that the girl’s spirit haunts the Island of the Dolls.

I just found out that my pieces, British Security Bees, Ditto, and Zombie were all accepted into the Richmond Illustrator’s Club Juried Show in the Uncommissioned category. It’s such an honor to have that many pieces in the show. Thanks to the Richmond Illustrator’s Club and all the jurors.

Hey there!  I just want to let everyone know that I've set up a store on my website.  So if you are interested in purchasing some of my work, now you can.  I only have one screen-print on there right now (see below), but there are very few remaining.  I'll be sure to get more work up there soon!
Thanks.

Dr. Bruce Banner, Physicist

This is a piece for a benefit and gallery show for Kerry Talbott, my former art school teacher at VCU. Kerry was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2010. He’s in good condition right now, but he was left with pretty huge medical bills. The benefit is this Monday, April 30 at Ghostprint Gallery in Richmond VA. All the pieces in the show will be silently auctioned off throughout the night with 100% of proceeds going to Kerry. There will be prints of Dr. Bruce Banner, Physicist at the show, so come out and pick up for a great cause.

The Sacrifice for Harry

Comic artist (and my fellow housemate) Julia Scott is putting together a Harry Potter zine and she asked me to contribute. I've yet to read the books but I am in love with all the movies.

A defining moment in the Harry Potter lore is when Harry is orphaned at the hands of "He Who Must Not Be Named," and receives his iconic scar.

I'm also a huge Batman fan. Like Bruce Wayne, Harry Potter's parents were murdered when he was very young. I threw a little nod to Bruce's parents' murder with the broken pearl necklace on Harry's mom.

Julia will have copies of this zine with her at the MOCCA Festival this year, so if you see her there, don't be afraid to get yourself one.

A cast of characters for a work-in-progress graphic novel. See more work here.

Figure drawings from last night at the studio. This was after happy hour at a local fancy restaurant with the rest of the studio mates. These are in no order of inebriation.

Ditto

This is my piece for the Pokemon Battle Royale for Light Grey Art Lab in St. Paul, Minnesota opening April 20th 7-9pm. Ditto can turn into any other Pokemon it encounters, but what happens when it encounters humans? I found the possibilities to be incredibly disturbing.

8 x 8 Prints at the show: $40 each (including the print displayed for the gallery)

If you can't make it out to the show, Light Grey Art Lab will also have prints available for purchase on an online shop for the duration of the show. If you still miss out on getting one, you can email me after May 11th, when the show is over to purchase one through me.
