Plans for 2010

Preview

Preview of new painting.

I’m always working on as many things as possible. I like to work in different media, and each has its own process of evolution and growth. I know that if I specialized in only one medium, I would have a much more uniform body of work. For some reason, I have an urge to work in different media and I love to make all types of things. I used to think that I should focus on one style and specialize in that, but I can’t help it. I enjoy exploring any idea that has the posibility for good design and honest substance. I feel that I should follow my instincts and try not to set boundries.

I’m planning a big exhibit for next March that shows all the types of work that I do. I will include paintings, sculpture, furniture design, large prints, and custom sneakers. I have most of the concepts worked out, but there’s a lot of work to be done!

Squirtgun and Polkadots

The squirtgun motif in my work comes from the fun days of water fights when I was a kid. I remember the excitement I got from playing with squirtguns. There is so much creativity involved in a child’s imagination. I could be Robocop or Dick Tracy any day of the week! Life was simple. I have always embraced my childhood, including the toughest memories. I never want to let go of the playfulness and imagination.

I like patterns like zebra print, stripes, houndstooth and of course the classic polkadot! I wanted to completely suround the viewer with a pattern to draw the person into the space. The polkadots blend from black to grey, drawing attention to the entire space. The FM logo takes all the attention on the left wall. The wildcat logo is painted on the wall in the dressing room.

Thank you Robot for all you help!

FM Artwork

Catfm shirtsFM sketchesMural1

FM Station just celebrated their first year on University Blvd. I’ve done some logo work for them and they’ve given me the chance to show some of my latest work at the shop. We also started painting a mural in the back room. If you were at the party last Saturday, you saw me getting it started. It’s taken me a little longer than I would like to get the concept together, but the process is speeding up and things are looking good!

Come by to check out their newly released shirts and watch as I lay some paint down on their walls. The mural should be finished up in the next week or so. I’ll post pictures as things progress.

Prototype A002

002

I’ve been working on this project for a while.  I’ve modified the design to better functionality and comfort, while allowing myself time to meet my deadline. This project has shown me how disadvantages and mistakes can redirect you to a better outcome.

I’m glad to be a part of another group show like this. This is one, hovever, I’m especially excited about. I’ts downtown on 4th Ave, at Conrad Wilde Gallery. Its a very nice place and I’m really happy to have the opportunity to show my work there.

Where you been?

ME!

You might find this picture on your milk cartons. I’ve been working a lot lately. Taking a color theory class at the community college. Life takes one on the path of least resistance, and, before you know it, time has flown away!

 

I am working on a project for a gallery show early next month. I’ll post the advances on that when I can. I’m headed out to finish it before the deadline gets any closer! Meanwhile, this is a video of one of the projects I’m working on at Creative Machines. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nztXBSE4QYA

The car sculpture is coming along. I’ve had two other projects in the works since I began and I’m starting to move forward on this again. There are many problems to solve along the way, but I’m extremely excited about the finished product!
