New Drawings, Not-so-New Paintings

I just recently added a few new drawings to my Etsy shop, with hopefully more on the way next week.

Also, for a limited time (& as a way of supporting my shop), I am listing some paintings from my sale site on Etsy.. all at least $100 off their current listed price!

**Apologies, soon after I posted these, a bunch of the paintings sold..  but there are still a few goodies left behind!**

Coming Soon: Etsy

I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time, but am just now getting around to it..  better late than never, right?  I’m going to be putting together a bunch of original drawings and sketches to be sold on Etsy!

Studio Cleanup SALE

Apologies for the lack of updates recently, I’ve been doing a little traveling and working on a million small projects at once.. which usually results in nothing being completed for a long time.

Among the things on my “to do” list is cleaning up my studio and making room for new work.  So I’m holding another SALE on some of my paintings (with a few pieces to be added soon), with all work under $350.  Yay!  See it HERE.

The Vault: VII

An old piece I did for a silent charity auction, where each artist was given a blank deck to work on.  All proceeds went to benefit a skate park in Knoxville, TN

Sketchy: Part I

I have a large stack of various drawings and sketches that I have saved throughout the years (I have a small problem with collecting things)..  Occasionally they’ll be made into finished paintings, but some never see the light of day.

For the next couple of weeks I’ll be stuck indoors working on a painting, so I thought it might be a good time to post a few of these little guys.

High-5 for AI

I was very excited to receive the news yesterday that I was selected for the American Illustration 28 Annual!  I’m very honored to appear for the 5th time (wow, I’m getting old!) in the annual that throws the BEST damn party in town.. especially among such dear friends (and strangely, ALL former roomies) Courtney Wotherspoon, Evah Fan, and Andrew Degraff.  Below are the champs that made it..
