"That Figures."

Here and some recent longer-pose figure drawings (except for The Pugilist drawing.) I was throwing together a compilation image to demonstrate my drawing for an art gig and I dropped in the boxer so that these women would have somebody to talk to...

The Bows Froze

Well, Emily and I have successfully created an outdoor mural in 18 degree Chicago weather. We aren't entirely sure whether the paint and wheat-paste are frozen or "dry," but it'll hold and will hold for a couple months more. One of my fingers is still numb, but its one that I don't use often, and the wall looks great. We're excited to continue evolving it as the weeks go on.

Also, the folks at Juliet Zulu have a sharp new site, with some swank looking graphics by Yours Truly. Take a peek at their Blog, too.

Misbehavin' Avian

Here are some of the birds that Emily Woodworth and I have been making for our temporary Chicago mural. We'll be wheat-pasting this menagerie many, many times over, creating patterns and rhythms. Then we'll be adding unique, odd, bigger and smaller birds as the winter weeks go on, so keep an eye open for more soon. They are all ink or watercolor, or both.

Apocrypha

Acrylic on cardboard from a Top Ramen case. From the fourteen months at sea story...

Boxing and Brooklyn

Here are some gouache sketches I did while traveling some time back. I thought that I'd do a ton of artwork but I found that I was too busy seeing new details to sit down and draw them, so here are the few images I did manage. They all get bigger, so click 'em.

Shy Aphrodite in Rome.

Bronze pugilist in Rome maybe the best statue I've ever seen. Its certainly a contender... a CONTENDER...
