Problems With Easy Solutions

Happy New Year.

Baptism in Florida

new painting

don't lose yourself

I haven't noticed summer because of the ridiculous amounts of rain. Apparently, in Mississippi there has been a drought for as long as we've had all of this freakish precipitation in NYC. I just read this book and I'm feeling dismal about being a part of global warming/the human race in general. I really am not the hippie type and I think Al Gore is a capital d-bag but there is a big problem no one is addressing, save to recycle a few yogurt cups. I wonder if I get my feelings of apprehension of the coming apocalypse from my father's side of the family.

Here's a painting I did. I need to paint more, think less.



Also, Ernie Barnes is really great. I discovered him via this great interview with Judith Linhares.

In other news, Vibe Magazine and Nickelodeon Magazine folded. Maybe I should go to grad school and teach kids in rural Mississippi how to make books.

some sketches for a band t shirt design:




swooshy swoosh.

and here is a painting i'm still wrestling with:

on the waterfront

Working on several new paintings for upcoming shows, stay tuned!

sorry for the late post

I don't have any excuses. Thanks for being patient.

my good friend victor said i don't need the black line anymore. he's probably right.


I've been listening to alot of electronica pop music and eating too many tootsie rolls.
