On the Drawing Board: the pop factor

/

Anyone who looks at my body of work can tell I love having my figures wet.  Sure, being wet or near water usually means less clothing, but it's also so much fun to give that slippery shiny look to skin.  No matter how light the tones might be, I won't use my brightest white until it's time to add the glistening highlights.  It just makes things pop!

New Release: "Kissing Booth"

It's the time of year for fairs and festivals and the old timey traditions like the kissing booth need a fun twist of modern sensibility.

On the Drawing Board: Two almost done, two more to go...

/

I feel like I've been putting a lot of time into this new piece, but it seems to be slow going. Maybe I'm just anxious to get it done.  Or it has so many little different elements, there isn't a big area of sky or mountains that fills up the space, plus there are four figures, each with a fun expression on their faces.

On the Drawing Board: the emotional male figurative

/

I think because my pieces are often little stories in my head, I have to start with the faces, the characters that will tell the story.  

I often describe my work as 'male figurative' and while that's a key component, the word 'figurative,' for me evokes a presentation of the male body in an anatomical and studious way rather than a presentation of men, men with emotions and desires and experiences of life. 

Only 1 or 2 prints left of these 5 works before price tier change

/

Early to Rise, Bump In the Night, Snow Day, Jock Blanc, Jock Rouge 

As the inventory of a limited edition run of a print dwindles the price increases. The limited edition studio size (13"x19" / 33x48mm) prints of these works only have 1 or 2 copies left before their prices get bumped up to the next tier.
