  • My Bobblehead Dwight Schrute Painting is the First of its Kind!

    My Bobblehead Dwight Schrute Painting is the First of its Kind!

    I first got the idea to do a bobblehead Dwight Schrute painting a couple of years ago. You know me – I’m all about ridiculousness. One day, I was exploring and just playing around in my sketchbook, trying to come up with ideas for what my next painting would be. I posted a picture of…

  • Flower Paintings Available for Art Licensing

    Flower Paintings Available for Art Licensing

    I’m so excited about these brand new flower paintings! They just got photographed today, and are available for art licensing. I haven’t worked with oils in a long time; almost 2 years ago I took a plein air oil painting class with Brenda Pinnick. She helped me get so much more comfortable with working in…

  • Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (insert whistling)

    Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (insert whistling)

    Isn’t it funny how certain phrases will trigger entire songs in your brain for hours on end? The phrase “Always look on the bright side of life” will have me humming the song from Life of Brian for hours after I hear it. My mind will helpfully insert footage from the old Monty Python film…

  • Painting Tutorial: How to Paint Faux Bois Wood Grain Texture

    Painting Tutorial: How to Paint Faux Bois Wood Grain Texture

    Is it weird that I wanted to get a new iPhone tripod so I could show you guys painting process videos? I thought it’d be neat to make a painting tutorial – so I started with showing how easy it is to paint a wood grain texture. That’s “faux bois” if you’re fancy. I’m fancy.…

  • Painting and Mixing Colors with Phil

    Phil wanted to bust out the paint this afternoon. He did a little painting, including a great red piece for his cousin Lily, but he’s more interested in mixing colors together. He just informed me that red and yellow and blue make black, and that he has to mix them up really good to get the…

We’ll be driving down to old town Mesilla in New Mexico to enjoy some cider at Josephina’s and show Phil the 20 bazillion lumenarios…

  • Show and Tell: Hearts and Laserbeams in HOW Magazine

    A couple of months ago, I saw Fab.com had a discount on subscriptions to HOW Magazine. I’m not sure why I never got this graphic design mag before – oh wait I just glanced at one and the cover price is like $10.95. That explains it. So this week, I received HOW Magazine’s November 2011…

  • New Painting Commission!

    Just wanted to share this painting I did recently for Adam Lovinus! He was hoping to surprise his wife with a portrait of her with their new son for her birthday, and it was so much fun to paint. I think it’s cool that over the years, I’ve kept my cartoony style, but my paintings have gotten…
