Newest Works, July 2010

I got a rather strange request recently from my friend Darius. He wanted a painting with the Dramatic Chipmunk, getting served tea by the Mad Hatter. (For those of you who haven't seen the 5-second Dramatic Chipmunk video yet, you can check out the YouTube video here. Also, the Best Of Dramatic Chipmunk video is hilarious.)

A mad, dramatic tea party.

Another friend also requested some artwork. Erin wanted a set of three music-themed paintings for above a couch. I liked this idea, so I got right down to work. This is what I came up with.




These are Erin's main musical outlets (and mine) so I thought the trio was appropriate : )


Also, I just did the next one just for me.

 Love in Copper

What do you think of the colors? Does it look like copper? I'd like to hear some comments on this one, I had the idea to go for a natural material, and ended up finding that a Google search of "copper tarnish" finds some beautiful colors.

I've Been Painting...

I've been painting lately, expanding on some concepts that I really like. Overlapping shapes and painting in the style of stained glass have been my focus lately. The new paintings are on The Artist's Collection page. Check it out!

Stained Glass style "Grow" 16"x20"



"USA!" 12"x12"
