Holiday Mailer Image


I've been working a little on the prop I'm using on my holiday mailer. It looks REALLY creepy in this stage, but hopefully it will be funny and in the spirt of the holidays. If not, I guess it's my Halloween mailer... I will post as the progress moves along.

Minotaur

Here is the finished illustration of the Minotaur head. It is for Synchronicity's world premiere Minotaur show.


I combined the illustration with a photo that I was given to become the advertising artwork for the show. Below is the completed photo illustration. Also, check out Synchronicity's Minotaur show. It is going to be a GREAT production. You can find out more information about this show and the rest of their season here: http://www.synchrotheatre.com/

Pipeline Project


A few months ago I worked on a pipeline model for a map project. I used a really flexible large wire for the pipe and very small washers for the sections on the pipes. I had the hardest time trying to find something for the pipe to rest on and to look like the photo reference. I finally found mini toy skateboards in the party supple section of the store and was able to cut them apart and they work great. It's funny what works sometimes. Anyway, here is the model in the photo shoot.

Sad Teddy Bear



Working on distressing a teddy bear for a maid service print ad. I love trying to make something look as authentic and worn as possible.

Matthew Shepard


Here is one piece from my first solo show just over a year ago. It's a portrait of Matthew Shepard.  It is a mixed media painting on wooden fencing and lashed together with rope. It was a lot of work doing a solo show, but I really enjoyed the experience to show a different side to my art.

Haunted Attraction


Here's a design sketch I did for advertising an upcoming 2012 haunted house. They wanted something scary, yet funny. It is a zombie lunch lady I was going to build as a large scale prop and photograph it. All the text was going in the dark part of her mouth. Unfortunately the project was canceled. So no zombie lunch lady anytime soon...
