Darth McNugget!

I finished this watercolor today. It was fun and not to complicated. I love the subject matter. I just can't stop giggling at it. The McNugget buddy is all goofy but some how he defeated Darth Vader :) 

Save the Princess!

I just finished this today! The doll and the ninja turtle are on top of a graphic novel. I was initially hesitant to attempt such a complicated painting but I love the way it turned out.

Attack of the good-natured dinosaur!

   I love absurdity. I love reading books where it's completly plausable that a detective would be investigating the tragic murder of humpy dumpty. Or where a girl shares an apartment with monsters. For some time I have been contemplating how to Interduce this kind of craziness in to my work. I think I figured it out! 

   This is a pleine air and still life put in to one piece. The dinosaur is a stuffed animal. The city scape is the view of my neighborhood from my window.

MST3K

Hello everyone! I have decided that I'm going to Mystery Science Theater 3000 all of my failed paintings. Not only is it funny but Mike and the bots represent my inner critics pointing out all of the flaws in my work. (if you don't know what mst3k is.... Google it)

Stacked

I love to see repetitive things i.e. stacked cups, books, fence posts, power lines and what not. So when I saw these cups I just had to capture it on paper.

Introducing my cat, Pinto!

Hey everyone! I just finished this painting... My brain hurts... This is the fastest turn around from drawing to painting I have ever done, less then two days! I used all my colors on this one, as you can see. For the last year I haven't really liked working in watercolor but this painting has got me loving it again. I went for a very direct approach, bright concentrated colors instead of thin washes. It was very fast and a heck of a lot of fun!
