experimenting with a little cut and paste...

Playing with an unconventional color palette

The Super Bloom is still going in SoCal! On the trail are poppies, daisies, alyssum and now the mustard grass is in bloom. My process was an iPhone photo, then a drawing with color and then collage in Photoshop.

I took the skulls of monkeys/apes I'd drawn about a year ago and incorporated them into some new collages that include mandalas I did about a month or two ago. Cutting, cutting, cutting, paper everywhere. I'm a huge mess. The second one is Billy / Jigsaw from Saw!

Ongoing series of handmade collages realised over vintage postcards.

Have you ever felt like you were scratching at the surface of a breakthrough? I'm in the middle of what might be something major or might be nothing at all.

This collage is entitled "The Final Voyage of the Bunny." I don't know who he is, or why it's called that, or why it feels so sad.

Sketchbook spread, visual diaries. Collage, acrylics, Posca, graphic markers.

These are the first of the collage set. I like the later ones a little better but they're sort of interesting and fun anyway.

I've begun cutting apart my old sketchbooks and glueing them back together. The results of which are sometimes more interesting than the old drawings themselves. This saint is my favorite of my most recent bunch. She's the prettiest Christmas tree of all.

You hear a whispered "hello" coming from your flowers.

Me and a few close friends in a cryptic nutshell.

As it says on the tin.

The product of killing time with some beer, wings and of course, doodling away.

Willingly burrows “Ian”...

With thanks (again) to endless listens of Devendra Banhart and other awesome folk like himself...heheh.

Casey the Puppet. This painting captures the essence of a puppet lots of older Canadians will remember. A strange genderless creature with a dog puppet companion. A puppet with an outspoken personality that I remember as a kid wondering how it got away with saying what it did. The painting has a Canadian stamp to commemorate the puppet's roots.
