Current projects


Hola Kiddies!
Thought I'd share some of the latest from yours truly. Like a seventh-grader losing his glasses on the tilt-a-whirl, this ride is gearing up to be one big blur for a while. I've been hip deep in a TON of new stuff including a brand spankin new project for an art gallery. I also decided to pull the trigger and return to design school FINALLY! It should've taken place eight years ago, but well, hey I got sidetracked. As long as there's nothing shiny around I can usually stay focused. But say if I jiggled my watch under the lamp like so...HA! Hey look at my watch! It's so sparkly! I'm just like Liberache! Well hellooooooo Dolly, yes helloooo...wait, where was I? Ahhh yes new stuff.
So theres design school applications, updating my old decrepid drooling age-spotted design portfolio, getting submission pieces ready for galleries and festivals this summer, finding financial aid (anyone interested?) and completing two pieces for the gallery in January. Whatever close facsimile of a social life I had has now been neatly folded and placed below a large stack of "you're too old for school shit" books. Anyhow, here's the beginning stages of my first piece entitled "The Motherlode". It's a long horizontal set consisting of three parts (I think). First- the miners striking their riches. Third- the trio of sinister looking outlaws (they'll be even nastier when finsihed) ready to do some badness. And in the middle I want a transition piece but no clue as to what yet. Guess you have to stay tuned my minions.
