New Site.

I really just gave up updating my site for the past several months and to make it up, I'm going to be posting everyday, Monday through Friday for the month of August.

Lots of new things going on over here, so much that I got lazy on my my e-mails too. Will be catching up on those that I missed the past months now and working out the kinks on the site....

Post #1.
House of Mystery #29 Cover

Oil on panel. 12"x18"

Sorry if you already saw this cover while my site had been under construction, there will be another post tomorrow. This is already old nooz.

-I'm almost back.

I am part of two group shows opening tomorrow if you happen to be in Brooklyn..

One is for "A Love Craft: Art Inspired by Monsters, Madness, and Mythos" honoring writing genius H.P. Lovecraft. Its at the Observatory 543 Union Street Brooklyn, NY 11215
This painting is a bargain 5x7. Contact them if interested.

The other show is a print show at the brand new 99 Gallery at 99 North 10th street Brooklyn, NY 11211. Its a silent auction and fundraiser to inaugurate the space. Lots of artists involved, should be a fun time.

I have a framed "Remy's Ascension" #69/80. It was from a canceled order from long ago and now can be yours. Contact info@ninetyninegallery.com if you want this.



Had my parasitic 15 seconds of fame the other night..

See you soon.

-House Of Mystery 26

House of Myster issue 26.
The upcoming story arc sounds really great. One thing that people might not think about is how far ahead the covers have to be done(in order to have an image for solicitations in catalogues etc..) So when an issue finally comes out, months have gone by. Often times I won't be sure what new characters will look like since the issue hasn't been drawn yet.

For instance, Fig, the main character whose sitting is wearing what she wore in issue 21.

Oil on board 12"x18".
A bit of burning and dodging in photoshop.

-Time Lapse

Here's a time-laspe of me painting the Blue Sky Noise album cover. The audio kicks in instantly and at full volume so mind the speaker icon before playing.

I'll put a more longer version up on youtube at some point. Special thanks to Matthew Taillon for his youtube speed painting page.

-Group Show

This Coming Saturday is Jonathan Levine Gallery's Five Year Anniversary Group Exhibition
February 27 to March 27, 2010.
Opening Reception: Sat. 27th from 7-9pm.

Literally ton's of artists are showing(If everyone's weight averaged out at 150 lbs, it would be almost 3 tons!)
The list of artists are at the bottom of the post.
Here's my piece below.

"Meigh" 20"x24" oil on wood.

While this was being varnished, I took a shot of the frame on a plastic hook in my studio so i could Photoshop the painting in for the blog.

As I was cropping the background out I thought the tote and shadow looked cool when framed. Out of context with the surroundings.

See.
