Arrested Motion

The guys over at Arrested Motion were nice enough to take the time and write up a lil somethin on my upcoming show. There are a couple preview images and a more detailed description of what I'm trying to accomplish with "Put On A Happy Face". Check it out. It's an awesome blog, so make sure to scroll through and check out updates on other artists and events.

Thanks a lot guys!

It's that time again. Yet another drawing of mine is up at Sketch Theatre. If you havn't been to the site in a while, you've got to check it out. The videos are now large and quite a bit more in charge. This sketch is another one that I liked so much, I had to paint it. The painting will be part of my solo show next month, so make sure you come down to Cerasoli : LeBasse and check it out, Nov. 8th.

Put On A Happy Face

I have my first solo show ever, coming up on Nov. 8th. So I thought I would give you a little taste of whats to come. It's called "Put On A Happy Face" and it will be held at the new Cersoli:LeBasse gallery in culver city.
With this show, I'm trying to convey the mixed emotions that people have from day to day. Some may be depressing, some happy, some scared, and some brave. I feel like for myself, my mood is constantly changing, and I act accordingly. I put on a different mask to let people know where I stand at that moment. Each painting in this series has a mask of sorts that represents a different emotion. Some of the paintings are a little more literal and some are more fun. I'll give you a little taste as an example. This painting is titled, "Shallow":

It's 24"x30" and is one of many new pieces that I've been slavin' over. Hope you like it. And I hope you get a chance to see the show next month. :)
