Snarl



Here be the finished painting matey, me first in many moon...argh. It's been at least six months since I've painted anything in oils. It felt good getting my hands, table, floor, pants, keypad and headset dirty again. I've come to know this fine gentleman as Jesup, the mutated monkey. I apologize for the shoddy photo, an inadvertent faux pas when out of practice for too long. This was done for my friend and tattoo artist Jeff Rassier. 12"x16" oil on canvas

Sketches!





So yes, this blog has been dead for a few months now, due largely in part to my current employment at Kabam. I've recently caught the creative bug again and this past Sunday afternoon yielded inspiration of the primate kind, sparked also by the recent release of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, which I highly recommend seeing. These sketches are a precursor to a finished oil painting.
