And also my lovely girlfriend and fellow artist, Sabrina Jackson, blasted out this awesome Janeane Garofalo! Sabrina rocks!!

"Janeane Garofalo" Ink and Colored Pencil on Watercolor Paper by Sabrina Jackson 2013
Well, that was a fun project and I have heard that there will be actual comedians at the opening, so it should be as blast.
 
Now, I am getting ready to start a new painting tonight, and I am stoked to post some pictures of it soon. My next painting will have a monster in it!!

Portraits of Comedians

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently finishing up a painting for a group show in April at Jameson's with the theme, "Portraits of Comedians".

It's pretty funny, (no pun intended) that I am actually participating in this show because the theme couldn't be further away from what I usually paint. Anyway, I thought it would be a good challenge for me, so I chose Danny DeVito. I decided to paint Danny as a giant. I believe he is only 5 feet tall, and to me that is sort of funny. Hopefully I will get it finished in the next few days! :)

Moth House

"Moth House" 16 X 20 Oil on Panel 2013
Just finished a few new paintings! This first one is called Moth House! I have always wanted to live in a magical little cottage, that looks like it's about 300 square feet on the outside, but on the inside it's actually and impossibly the size of any normal house. I recently moved into a new house and decided if I couldn't move into a magical little cottage, that I should just paint one.

"Concussion" 10 X 8 Oil on Panel 2013
This next painting is probably the smallest thing I have ever painted!! Yes, I received a concussion and it totally sucked! I was breaking up a bar fight..... and let's just say that things didn't turn out as planned! Ouch!!
