Number 33 is here, only 67 drawings left to make before 100 Drawings comes to a close.
I’m pretty sure nobody’s holding their breath.
This was a slightly older one lying around that I kept meaning to finish up, but never finding the energy to decide where it should go. Then it finally struck me: it’s already finished. Sure, I could find places to forcibly paint, but I realized I like it as it is, and therefore felt blocked to add any more to it. Hope you feel the same. Enjoy “The Giving Tree”, ink and watercolor on paper:

…Crazy 4 Cult is back!
This year’s Crazy 4 Cult show is expected to be the best ever. Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier (of Clerks fame) host the show at Gallery 1988, and the evening promises to be full of great art, and references to some of everyone’s favorite cult classic movies. My take this year is from one of my favorites: The Big Lebowski. Maude gets her due as the dream sequence Valkyrie under delicious double-coated resin. The painting is pretty large, one of my largest on paper to date, and I’m quite pleased with how it turned out. We’ll be in attendance for the opening, this Friday, July 9th from 7-10PM. Hope to see you all there!

…save the proverbial date!
First up, I’ll have a painting in C.A.V.E. Gallery‘s upcoming two-year anniversary show: “Repeat Offenders” show. The show opens June 4th at 7PM and goes until 11PM. It’s also a benefits show, for “Haiti Healing Arts” with 20% of all proceeds to fund ICAF’s Art Therapy program for child victims of the earthquake that ravaged Haiti.
“Inner Sanctum”
Acrylic on paper, mounted to wood panel, resined. 7.5″ x 17″
The piece was a fun one to do, working it in around my upcoming solo show in September at Subtext Gallery. It’s a continuation of the recent themes I’ve been playing with, all pieces acrylic on paper, mounted to wood and of course, smothered in resin. I’m more comfortable painting now than I’ve been in quite awhile, which is not to say that I certainly don’t have room for improvement. I’m always striving to get better, and getting into a painting zone has become more…challenging lately with the birth of Jackson. Anyway, mark your calendars, the show opens Friday, September 10th at Subtext Gallery in downtown San Diego. Look for my ad in the July issue of Hi-Fructose magazine. Enjoy!
