Moving on...

Good news everyone!
I'm going back to my drawing a day for 2013.

In the theme of fresh starts and new beginnings, I am moving my art blog officially over to Tumblr. Please find me there from here on out for drawings, new art, and show announcements.

To a joyous 2013 full of art, creativity, and success to everyone!

Black Lightening Heart

Black Lightening Heart from Modern Eden Gallery's Tribute to Metal show

Available here!

I was originally inspired by Bats for Lashes song of the same title (I know, I know! not a metal song, but I loooove the imagery. I wanted to take the lyrics and make it darker)

Continuing playing with paint and colored pencil on wood panel. Love the balance of those two mediums.

Dandelion

Inspired by episode one of Fringe this season... : )

Mermaid

Inspired from some kind words from a fan at APE to post some new drawings!

Trying to get back in the habit of doing a daily drawing; going to try to post from my phone to skip scanning as a way to just "get stuff up" on here!

Crane Wife and "Myth" at Modern Eden

Sorry I'm late in posting this, but between travelling to Japan and work deadlines, haven't had a chance to update here!

Wanted to let you know of my latest work hanging at the very wonderful Moden Eden gallery here in San Francisco! I was lucky enough to be part of their latest group show, "Myth," and returned to a subject I find myself coming back to time and time again; the Japanese folktale The Crane Wife.

More info "behind the work" and purchase info here!

The closing reception will be held at 403 Francisco Street from 6-9pm.

Night at the museum

Went to Nightlife at the Museum at the SF Academy of Science a few weeks ago; here are some drawings! Aquarium + booze= win!
I'm trying Damon's new method of taking a pic of my drawings w my iPhone, which aren't as high quality as scanning, but a heck of a lot easier...

VS Show Pieces!

First off, thank you to EVERYBODY who made it out to VS last weekend! We had a fantastic turnout, and sold a bunch of pieces! 

It was my first time curating a show, and I couldn't have asked for a better reception. We packed Mission Comics and Art, and almost every single participating artist showed up in person to the event!

A HUGE thank you to Leef, owner and gallery director extraordinary for allowing me to host such a great event in such a wonderful space!

For all the pictures (and prices/availability) of all the pieces, please see the show's tumblr site:

For photos from the reception, you can check them out over on my facebook page!
