Women With Groceries

August 12, 2008 – 9:15 am

Yep, it’s all coming back to me now. I think I used to be some kind of teenaged stray, wandering the neighborhood and begging for food. Not that there wasn’t plenty at home, but that would have involved personal meal preparation, for which I was apparently too lazy.

Suburban Cartoons For Everyone!

August 12, 2008 – 8:58 am

I did these little 18×24 paintings last week. I am trying to remember what I saw when I was a kid in the ‘burbs, with a lot of time and nothing to do. I am noticing that what I remember at this point is women my parents age who could potentially give me food. Maybe [...]

More Cartoons Of Sunbelt Suburbia In The Seventies

August 8, 2008 – 9:46 am

Well, one more, anyway. More to follow. I have more fun drawing these little pieces of fragmented memory from my distant youth than I do painting them, but painting them is pretty great, too. When I get enough of the images together, they will come together as a story or series of stories, and I [...]

I Like Cartoons

August 7, 2008 – 11:44 am

And as long as the hot wet blanket of August makes it hard for me to slap paint, I’m going to do the most funnest thing I can– paint cartoons. Cartoons about suburbia when I was a sunbelt teenager.

Urban Mutt Painting

July 11, 2008 – 10:51 am

I am trying to keep up with my less-than-prolific output of artwork, which should be no problem, but I keep forgetting to bring the camera down to the gallery where I do a lot of work. This is a rework of a painting I did that sold some time ago; everybody liked it so much [...]

Painting In Public At Interior Motives Gallery

June 27, 2008 – 10:49 am

Well, that was fun. Now I can get back to painting goofy stuff on paper. I think I’ll do some cartooning; heatstroke make me whimsical. Did I mention it’s bloody hot here in St Petersburg?

A Crescent Lake, St Petersburg, Painting…

June 11, 2008 – 11:25 am

Yeah, I don’t get out much, that’s why my BrightKite activity is essentially pointless, but my immobility does lead to an intense appreciation of my immediate surroundings. This painting was done for a Tampa patron. I like the sound of that: Patron. Uhmmm, yummy patron…

Painting At Interior Motives Gallery, St Pete

June 3, 2008 – 11:06 am

This is a big 4×4 foot canvas I’m doing in the style that I used a few years ago. I sort of forgot about this kind of big-brush direct painting, but it is kind of fun and really conveys a mood. And by mood, I mean, Really Hot. Which it is, and it will remain [...]
