Zodiac Series *updated 11-20*
Current mood: hopeful

So here is the first half of a Zodiac series I am working on.  These will be available as full sized posters and, depending on the demand, a 2008 calender.  Prices are still TBD so contact me if you are interested in ordering.  I am aiming for a late November wrap on these so that they will be ready for Christmas.  Check back around then for an update with the rest of the available pieces, until then enjoy...

*update 11-20* Only one new piece (Gemini) with this update but the music is  fixed... an unanticipated busy month of Nov. and an even busier one ahead in Dec. have postponed this project slightly, so there may be no calendar.  The demand so far has been 90% for prints so that is what I will concentrate on for now, until then check back every couple of weeks for an update...

*Update 2008* So as you may have noticed, I've taken a break from these.  Call me ADD (and you'd be right) but I got really tired of doing the same things over and over... and then school hit! yeah so new art that is not school related is going to be few and far between for the first half of the year... but i will have these ready by the time the next sign rolls around so lets see, Leo, that gives me till July right? Sweet maybe I'll be more willing to revisit this by then...

Marvel Super-Heroes (...or someone save me from Alabama so i can find work)

View it now!

Okay so I was reading some Alex Ross (who oddly enough I am growing to loathe) illustratd comics and got mad inspired to do some portrait style photo real super-heros.  Using a mix of sketching, photo manipultion and digital coloring, Spiderwoman and Invisable Girl were the results.  After showing them off I got flooded wth requests and this show is the result.  I still have a few on the backburner(incuding Cloak&Dagger, Iron Man, and Captain America) but I find my eyes tired of staring at a computer screen all day long so I'm taking a break from these and working on some more hands-on pieces for a while(hell Iron Man and Cap will probaly show up there too) .  Oh, speaking of hands on, those of you requesting paintings, please be patient too, I am held up in a tiny apartment currently and simply do not have the room to produce anything new(anyone still in college can identify with this one) in terms of oils or acrylcs.  In about six months I'll be free of the place and can hopefully set up a full sized studio (and get a good digital camera) somewhere at which point I can share some of my less digital work with you guys...

Enjoy and please comment

Graphic Design Work
Category: Art and Photography

ok, so most of my friends on here won't be terribly interested in this show, but for clients who want to see a little bit of my two dimensional design work, here are some samples, mostly add work....

I have websites, corporate identity campaigns, newspapers, entire magazines, and several logos as well that are not going to appear here for a while due to cross MAC/PC issues( I am currently working on PC). But until then, here to wet your appetite.....
