Some New Plans etc.

First off, I am planning on a new series of birds in seemingly regular situations with helmets on. Hopefully I can put together an entire show worth of them. It will be the "Terrified of Flight" show and I would of course have to play all 764 Hero during the opening. I think it is a cool message though.....thoughts?


Second, here are the plans for the first piece that I want to construct in a box. Joseph Cornell style. I might start subbing birds for the robot though. I don't know. I may try to get Camwyn to help me with it, when I move back east.....I'll buy the Guinness?


And here is a painting that I am sending to my parents tomorrow. It won't stick to the fridge or anything, but I was thinking about it and absolutely missing the days of drawing weird stuff and seeing it up on the fridge. In fact when I go home now there are still drawings my brother and I did on the fridge. So cheers mom and dad!

Dusk - the bird
on the fence
A contemporary of mine

It has been way too long since I've posted anything on the blog, so here are a couple things that are going on.

1.) The new website is in the works. Expect it by the end of the year.

2.) I am looking at grad school in the northeast. Soon I will be able to write grants and get the government to pay for my supplies and time.

3.) I've started to do some quieter work, which I will be posting a little at a time in the next couple weeks. Sort of like the haiku piece at the top.

A terrified bird and some Fuzzballs

This is called "Terrified of Flight". (anyone a 764 Hero fan?) Anyway, it is the latest paper piece for the Pulp show at Gallery 110, which is next wednesday night. I'll be there and dressed up. So come on down for some free wine and some cool art. It will rock.
Oh and this is a cool picture of my cats. I know, I'm probably crossing the line into crazy cat person if I start putting images of my cats up in my art blog, but come on...you think they're cute don't you?

Pulp Update

Pulp is coming up on the 30th of May, and that's pretty soon. I need to get my butt into overdrive. I have two pieces that are not done yet that I want in the Pulp show, but here is one more that I did finish, which I am totally stoked on.
Anyone who doesn't know, all of the artwork will be $110. Just like Gallery 110! So you should stop in and see if you can pick up some stuff for cheap and benefit my gallery, cuz that would definitely rule.

Battle Hymns......

is easily the best Suicide Machines Album. That said, here is a painting that has absolutely nothing to do with the Suicide Machines. This piece is for another beer delivery man, Paul from Click for those of you in the industry......

Awesome Weekend

This weekend was the best. I spent so much time at studio and actually got a piece that I've been preparing for at least two months about three quarters of the way through. I also made this sketch of a bird with a helmet....I'm wondering if he should be in a recognizable city or just a random city........

Pulp 2.2

The Pulp show is coming up at Gallery 110. For anyone who doesn't know the show will be on the 26th, all of the work in the show will be on paper, and will be priced at $110. I intend to have at least five pieces up in the show, including a couple pieces previously priced much higher than $110. You'll have to come to see which pieces though. This is my first piece for the show: "Two Welds and a Chance of Showers."
