This is the oldest…from probably about 6 or 7 years ago. The subject is a cool kid I know, named Jevon. He’s a lot older now, but, as you can see, this was when he was just growing some chompers. Below are the photo and crummy sketch from which I started. If I remember correctly, his mom said something like “You made him look like a monster!” Oh the blindness of a parent’s love…
The rest of these are from the beloved and infamous Studio 2304 days…or daze…both apply. I’m sure I’m getting these dates wrong, but we were there something like 2005 – 2008. I say ‘we’. It was actually Steve Herndon’s studio, but we both painted there many nights a week. And it was pretty common for other friends/artists to drop by as well. Anthony Mata, Brad Abrams and sometimes Laura Abrams all hung out and/or made art there. If you dropped by, chances are you would be handed a brush and be coerced into doing something creative.
The serious gorilla.
The three below were done for Jet, Ryder and Greyson, my friend Heather’s kiddos. Hopefully I’ll get them shipped to them in Colorado before they graduate high school.
And here is a painting I did for an ‘erotic’ art show. At the time, I was painting a LOT of nude females, so I decided to try to capture eroticism without nudity.
I promise to post some newer work soon!
