Don't you ever take notes overtop of previously drawn sketches?


Exciting News!

The molten lead decoy piece got into the Hope Against Hope show!

October 8th, 2010. Phoenix Shot Tower 7pm-10pm.



This guy is from 2008, the year when I compulsively drew animal familiars--rabbits and hedgehogs exclusively.

That's what working in a label printing factory will do to you.

I didn't realize the correlation of the images until just now; that was supposed to be a bottle of milk but it could easily be a stand-in for Dr. Thunder.




And oh yes, some more of these guys.


The only library book that I never returned at all was The Essential Rilke. When I lived at my first house, I found it between the cushions of an arm chair. I had already paid the replacement fee, so I pretended that the book wanted to stay with me.

Since I never took any pictures of my old house, there are a handful of objects and sounds that I have that are charged with memories:
-a sloppy Christmas window decoration
-my Black Snake Moan poster
-student artwork from my very first class at Mt. Washington Elementary.
-hissing radiators





































Completed during the 2010 blizzard.

This piece was initially vertically oriented and purposefully so. It was a submission to a show that was centered around the Baltimore Shot Tower. I wanted evoke molten lead being poured down a steep shute.
