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.

Weird Faces

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!

Recent black & white drawings

so i havent posted in a few weeks mainly because of the holidays & i havent been able to keep up with the documenting while creating.
like most of my imaginative work it comes out of the blue & it is always free-hand.
i never use pencil because i like the raw aspect of not knowing what will come out.
therefore i have to make do with what i draw.
some of you may have seen these already but i wanted to test out my new scanner & see how it worked.
