Gaia, the Goddess Mother Earth, is a beautiful flowing spirit that encompasses all of life on the planet. I was given the task of capturing Gaia in a painting, but I had no idea how to do that. Gaia isn’t just an image of a pregnant woman with leaves in her hair, she is Mother… Read More The Mystical Painting of Gaia
The very mention of the names Adam and Eve brings up a range of emotions to many different people. Christians think of them fondly as our first Earthly parents from when God created the Earth about 6,000 years ago. They believe that this is the factual truth and they will go to great lengths to… Read More “Adam and Eve Come Home”
Doom and Gloom!!! Oh glorious, cruel, heartless, murderous, rapacious, malignant, magical, complex, artistic, fascinating, maddening, relentless, ravenous Civilization. What a reality we live in! Despite my abhorrence of all of the atrocities ever committed in Civilization, I appreciate the the arts and culture and the love that does exist only because of it. It’s so… Read More The Story of ONE
I did it. I censored my own art. I painted over the “X-Rated” paintings that I had created a few years prior as part of my “Adam and Eve” series. I painted over all of them except for one that I will display at the end of this blog, (warning.) Why did I do it? Let me tell you why I painted them in the first place.… Read More From Rated X to Zero – Censoring My Own Art
I love how art has been a continual source of connection for me in building a community of friends and colleagues. I would like to show you some very lovely portraits of beautiful women that I have drawn recently. Two of these portraits were won with a bit of luck by the recipients, Cat Palmer and Eva Erickson, in the drawings I held during the Utah Pride Festival and the Utah Art Festival. I knew Cat already through the Salt Lake art community…… Read More See The Finished Portraits
Never before in my life have I created such an attractive and alluring work of art as Tracy the Trashceritops. She’s a magical upcycled celebrity, fabulously adorned with an amazing technicolor dream-coat of aluminum cans and a wonderful mystical presence that captures the heart of every inner child…… Read More The Adventures of Tracy the Trashceritops
I am a figurative artist. Throughout my career, I have always been drawn to painting people; capturing their personalities, bodies, and stories through portraiture. I will not always strictly hold to that subject matter exclusively, but it has predominantly captured my attention so far, which is interesting because I am also a fierce environmentalist and an animal lover at heart…… Read More Nude Art, Shocking?
The inspiration behind these mixed-media portrait and figure drawings came to me naturally as a feeling that welled up inside of me of the desire to scribble…… Read More And the winner of the portrait drawing is…
I’ve been working on a new series of mixed-media drawings called “In her bedroom” which consist of actual girls that I know modeling in their actual bedrooms, which creates a sexy ambiance with a twist of realism. They are quite charming and even sentimental for me. Boudoir imagery is not the deepest in meaning of all the art I’ve created, but I enjoy it, and at the end of the day, if I’ve made some lovely ladies feel more beautiful, I feel that I’ve achieved one of my life purposes, which is loving women. I’ve mostly started with small black and white drawings but will expand to larger color drawings/paintings… … Read More The intention behind my new mixed-media drawings
During the occupy movement I saw this bad ass conscious rapper performing on the street during a protest and I filmed him. We kept in touch and I did the cover artwork for his newly finished album. Check it out 🙂 Black Guero…… Read More Black Guero album cover
