Just a materials test - no time to get into a real deal painting tonight. I was looking at some Chris Berens today, got me thinking about drawing on tracing paper again. Haven’t done it in a long time. Wanted to get a bit of his fun blurry, layered feeling. This really isn’t *it* just kind of a warm up…
heya dudes :) this is for an upcoming group show with the lodnonmiles gallery http://www.londonmiles.com/ with the theme of candy coated canvas, hope you guys like it :)
keep up the awesome work guys :D
Hi!
Two new illustrations just for fun. The second one comes from a conversation with Tom, I had some trouble to understand the difference between someone painting in his underwear and someone painting INSIDE his underwear… aaaah my poor english can make funny situations! :]
Take care !
Friday night I went to the Sugar Cafe in SF, and I had my friend Nazarena pose for me. very pretty, and a pretty good model too. I did this painting in about two and a half hours, and plenty of drinks in me… I want to work on it some more once I get the reference shots from her.
————————————————
This was the next day, I got the opportunity to do a 5 hour pose at the Riley Street art supply store. It was only 15 bucks too! What a bargain! I will try to do the next one, for sure. Apparently I’m super fast.

I also went to China Camp in San Rafael to paint with the North Bay Plein Air painters group. We also hooked up with the Benicia Plein Air painters group for a cookout. It was nice to get my work in front of other appreciative eyes. It was also a good 15 degrees cooler than it was inland. Perfect day for painting.
A quickie commission for my mom’s friends who are getting married next month. He’s a dentist, she’s a tango dancer and she’s gonna dance with a rose clamped between her perfectly cleaned teeth I guess? ;)
Also a few more critters for that facebook app… do they look familiar to anyone else?
Hi gang,
Here is a quick selfportrait that took 30-40 minutes of my time, ofcourse its more a sketch then anything else but I don’t feel the need to go into more detail at this moment.
Hope u like it
Painting in Santa Rosa
A couple of new gouache paintings I did when I was in Santa Rosa a few weeks ago. I really like how the first one came out, I must admit!
