Stick figure chicken in dress. An attempt to do some cute stuff, instead of being dark all the time.

SKY WATCHER



As a kid, I often looked up at the sky while lying down, trying to figure out how many shapes I could create from the clouds. Then I wonder, "what is beyond that?" This image seems to know what is above, but is concerned about the world below.

MUST CONTAIN VOMIT




Is it me or is throwing up a requirement in today's culture? I constantly see it in movies and tv shows and it doesn't matter if it's a drama or comedy, the genre does not affect the hurl. Well, if it's a requirement, here's my take on it.

TRANSYLVANIAN GOTHIC


First drawing done in quite some time. It's an odd take on the American Gothic painting. I've never been to Transylvania nor do I know enough about its culture, but to me this drawing has a whimsical Vlad the Impaler type of feel to it (if that's even possible).

A BOOK ABOUT DEATH



My postcard entry to "A Book About Death (ABAD)". My wife, Patricia has been organizing this year's show (May 3-8, 2011) which will be held at Willo North Gallery, Phoenix. This painting, which I turned into a postcard is based on a photograph Patricia did of me a few years back. A lot of entries have been coming in, and I'm looking forward to seeing them all together. There's still time to enter: the deadline for postcard and memento is April 25, 2011.

ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN LOSES A PAW


There's a certain sympathy seeing a hurt monster. I'm not sure why I'm drawn to the loss of a hand or in this case a paw. I think it goes back to when I was working at the bindery of a publishing place years ago with an old cutter. There were many people that freelanced there that's lost a thumb or some other part of the hand due to accidents from these old large machines. Thinking back, I remember putting my hands under the cutter many times, in order to prepare the stack of paper for cutting and thought nothing of it.
