CALLING
OUT THE LIGHT
Watercolor on paper, 12" x 18", 2002
$150.00
This image
appeared as I concentrated on candlelight while meditating. I was dying
for new ideas, so I quickly sketched it, later pulling out the watercolors
to complete the piece.
EVOLUTION
Watercolor and acrylic on canvas, 12" x 16", 2001
$200.00
This piece was a series of visual layers put together to create a wall of natural history. On the far right, you will notice faces similar to those of Easter Island. Next to those, an ape-like face; next to that, a layer of rock; then a female body covered with a grid; finally, a wall of stone on the far left.
Acrylic and ball point pen on canvas board, 9" x 32", 1993
Burned in fire
There is no trace of this one left either. It burned right off the wall. The only ones left are the photos and the tattoo on my arm/chest. This was such a fun piece to create. It all stemmed from the line in the Tool song "Disgustipated": "Life feeds on life, feeds on, feeds on life." Almost everyone who saw it, loved it. I also won a blue ribbon for it at the State High School Art Show back in 1994.
Acrylic on canvas, 8" x 12", 1996
$300.00
Another favorite of mine and other people. Depicts a contemplative man kneeling in a cold Wyoming field behind barbed wire.
Collage
1
Mixed media, 18" x 24", 1999
After the fire, I was able to piece together some scraps of things to create two collages. This one is rather dark--filled with some of my work, some prints from H.R. Giger, and other clips.
Collage
2
Mixed media, 18" x 24", 1999
This is similar to the first collage, except this one utilizes a range of painting styles--from Titian to impressionism to Giger again.
