oh dear this is already outdated...

I have forgotten to post these images after I took them (which was when the last bunch was taken)and so all of these have gone though many changes as it is.

This has changed quite a bit. I think it is more richer now.

I would also like to note I am sick of people who sometimes question my level of technical ability, as I did not know there are still rules on rendering in painting. I suppose I tend to stay in the middle, not getting overly cartoon-like and not rendering the form to the fullest and realistic sense. Neither of these are in my mind as goals.

This painting has now been cut in a four part configuration, as well as a cat plague invasion. Whether they remain seperated or not is the question.

I think this is the 3rd or 4th painting on this canvas. Right now it is a ground and I don't want to work on it yet. Or maybe I dug myself in a hole of not ever being to work on it, since there is too much there already.

This one has changed alot since this picture. The rats are "the beginning of Watership Down" like and the boat more noticable. Trying to add another narritive into this is difficult.

These are up on the wall in a similar configuration. The top two might be another piece. My concern is how to mount them so they extend diffrent levels. Wood might be too difficult, foamcore or styrafoam might be the cheaper and easy alternative.

I have been told my work reminds some of Aboriginal art, and that I should be careful of that. It is not my intention to copy that nor do I think my work looks like that persay. It it something one is aware of but does not consciously make it a a point to mimic anything. But it is the automatic that I'm somehow seeking to create a narrative. Though their "Dreaming" concept is interesting, and some of my work can be seen that way in a ways and perhaps in a larger context (hopefully).

random studio nonsense

These are some things I'm pretending to work on using pill packaging as a mold (which doesn't work that well) and medium. The one above is tampon goodness.

these are basically a bunch of scabs and hair.

I was hoping for the rust to leak through. I'm thinking about weaving hair into some configuration.

These keys I bought for 10$ at a antique store should be used for something eventually.

uytu 045

have no idea yet. I was thinking about making a lost cast mold with these filled with objects and resin.

hair and cement. I'll figure out for a reason for this to exist.

my floor, which I'm awkwardly repairing...

hello again

I keep seeing people posting art and works in progress here. There are about 500 million websites to host images and put up art. There needs to be some sort of combination thing happening. Considering I haven't updated my website in like a year, I'll be trying to regularly post works in progress as well as other things that may relate to my art and work and life and so on. Even when I have no idea what I'm doing. Trust me it will be awesome
