This is based on an doodle I made in 2002.

Check out my latest painting at the show.

Yay! I'm in a show.

Angry Cloud

This is an early sketch for my threadless submission.

A Brief Catastrophe

This is the only painting that I made in 2007. I got problems. Acrylic on canvas, 20"x20"

Emeryville Celebration for the Arts

Emeryville has an annual juried show for artists that live or work in the city. My entry was a bit of a scandal for all the granny landscape painters that were also in the show. I had mixed emotions that night. I was happy just to be showing, but juried shows are terrible venues for artists. Fortunately there was no entry fee for this show.

A Sudden Change in Direction

2006 was a semi-productive year. I made these 3 paintings. They are all 20" x 20" acrylic on canvas.

Collision Event

A Violent Birth

The Behavior of Bullets

This is the first painting that I made out of graduate school. I watch a lot of the Discovery and Science channel. This painting was picked for the annual Southern Exposure show. The 2005 theme was "Mayhem." 12"x12" Acrylic on canvas

When He Found Its Edge

I made these four paintings for my graduate thesis in 2004.

When We Kill Ourselves

When We Clinched

When The Lights Came On

When You Weren't Looking

It's amazing how owning a computer can change the style of your paintings.

When You Held Your Breath

Acrylic on Canvas, 56"x66", 2003.

What Big Leg You Have

Acrylic on Canvas, 56"x66", 2003.

When No One Was Around

Acrylic on Canvas, 54"x72", 2002

My Mom Says I'm A Good Boy

This is the first painting that I made in graduate school at U.C. Davis. Working in the same eclectic style, I found inspiration in sexually charged imagery of cartoons and illustrations.

On the Mind

Acrylic on Wood, 12"x36", 1999.

The Introduction

Acrylic on Canvas, 36"x48", 1999.

The Father

Acrylic on Canvas, 36"x48", 1999.

Fat Babies

I made this painting after completing my undergraduate degree in art at San Diego State University in 1998. I was interested in juxtaposing an eclectic mix of imagery and text. Here, I appropriated the "pig-baby" image from an early 1900's newspaper advertisement for tonic. The idea in the ad was that a fat baby was a healthy baby.

Spoon-Fed

Oil on canvas, 36"x48", 1998.
