Nude Studies

From last night's drawing session. I like the human form because it's amazingly unique to each person.
I tried using a different medium Im not used to using.
So i went with it & here are some of my best ones.
Just note most poses were held from 5-10min at most.
hope you like

Public Transpo UnFare Hike

This was a series I did about three years ago. Really solid pieces!
I like them & just got them back from a friend who stored them for me.
Now i have them to show off some three years later.

Fyi: as usual any piece you see is always part of a series & also up for sale

Skull Still Life Session

so i have a real fascination with skulls, day of the dead, reincarnation & the after life.
i recently found this skull in my cafe & decided that i wanted to have a paint session with him.

below i have added the pic of me with the skull. 
followed by a paint session i did last night.

i will probably include this painting in a series of work i have entitled: We Try & We Die

the series deals with the playfulness, fearlessness, & inevitability that we will someday expire.



Me & my future self

Awkward Encounters pt. 2

sorry havent been posting. it's a discipline to keep up with blogging.
my discipline has been to paint so trying to make the shift translate into my blog.

this is from a bigger series entitled Awkward Encounters, which is about the awkward people, moments, non-verbal messages we give off & receive. i've captured these animalistic characters as expressions of how i sometimes feel or how i experience others to feel. its has a lot of the unconscious expression throughout. 

i am trying to capture the human animal in all shapes & forms of awkwardness
enjoy! more to come. shows to come!
