A little out of my comfort zone, and I decided to go with a loose look to these. Part of a series of illustrations I'm working on for an upcoming publication; all locations from the Arctic Circle down to Kiev, and then some. It's rough when you are trying to illustration something you haven't actually… Continue reading Arctic Circle to Kiev

New Painting: “Night Shift”
Oil on paper, 11x14 inches. Maybe it's the time I spent in New Orleans this year -- or the fact I'm wishing I could be there when I'm not -- I have been having a common theme of masks, lately. It's very hard to get the colors right on things when I can't scan direct,… Continue reading New Painting: “Night Shift”

Dominatrix Made Adorable
I started doing these color studies recently which are a little different, but kind of cute and sexy.

Maybe.… Continue reading Dominatrix Made Adorable

Beware the Female Imagination
The other night, I learned the origin of this image that has appeared and changed over centuries in Aristotle's Masterpiece. The hairy woman, and the black baby. Although originally having nothing to do with each other aside from illustrating the dangers of maternal imagination, they were together on a single woodcut on accident, and thus,… Continue reading Beware the Female Imagination
