Update

Sorry that's it has been a while...

Here are a couple new things available as always in print, clothing, stickers, and iPhone cases. Now in iPad cases also! Enjoy!

Dark Spring

Wanderlust

I've been working on some other stuff that didn't really amount to anything, but the progression still looks pretty interesting.

Some kind of futurescapes-

And then some fun weird stuff-

I have another interesting little progression I'm going to show in my next blog because I was very careful to keep track of what I was doing so I could better explain it.  The product didn't turn out as I would have liked, but that's the nature of this kind of work... you really don't exactly know what you'll end up with. It's just the way it goes. So until next time...

Tonight's Creation.

New Killer Blog Coming Soon!!!

I've been working for days on a new posting that goes even further in depth on how I created some of my previous pieces.  I'm hoping to publish it tomorrow.  I have to admit I've given into the distraction of new works- trying to recreate what I did in the past is inspiring many new creations! :) Stay tuned.

Trees Ablaze: A Tree Within a Tree

 Season's Blaze: 'Abstract' with Creepy Tree III

     I created this piece during the same period that I created the bulk of the 'Creepy Tree series'.  But I forgot about it after I hit 'save'.  I came across it last night, and I think it's particularly fitting considering the new season.  The core pieces of this series are the three abstractions.  These three pieces have a very seasonal feeling to me, though I was unaware that I was moving in this direction when creating the pieces.  

     The first abstraction (Abstract with Creepy Tree: Ghost Story) is blue and cold like the starkest winter.  When I originally created the piece I felt the cold, barren, emptiness of the piece like that of a graveyard, a haunting.  Now I see that, and the haunting cold of winter, the eerie way sound travels or fails to travel in the cold and ice are all imbued with the original quality I saw.  Winter can be very eerie, and stark, bare, exposed, piercing, and haunting.  

Salutations... it's like a guest book... please click here to let me know you dropped by.

I'm absolutely fascinated to know who's looking at my blog and what you think... I think it's amazing that each and every one of you stopped to look at my work.. Thank you! And lemme know about you, what you think, where you're from, etc... anything.. well almost anything. LOL

Awesome New Tee!

Newest edition to the "Creepy Tree series'- the Creepy Tree Tee!

Creepy Tree Tee

I adore this design.  I haven't worked 'intentionally' in a while.  But this image stuck in my head.  To me it has a feeling of being both a little creepy and 'goth' and being kind of wispy and 'Asian'.

Available on-

More from the Creepy Tree

The newest abstraction from the 'Creepy Tree' series! Enjoy!

The fiery warmth of season's change 

overtakes winter's ghostly branches...

Season's Change: Abstract with Creepy Tree II

Other pieces from this series-

Sunbreak Behind a Creepy Tree

Newest Abstraction!

Another neat-o abstraction!

Stamp Act: Abstraction with Texture

I adore the textures of this piece. And the strong geometry is very appealing.

This piece is an abstraction of Pink Sunset in the Trees II. The frame is actually created by dual tree trunks.  The textured appearance of the red areas are leaves.  And obviously the linear patters in the central panel are tree limbs.

Both pieces are available as cards, prints, and posters at

A Lonely Spectral Tree

The original image- 

it started off a lil blurry. But this lonely little tree just always spoke to me...

I knew I wanted to to do something with this... 

so I started fooling around.

You can still see the bottom of the tree trunk.. 

four times and the tree top twice.  Look closely.

I use many methods in creating these pieces-

often times I change the orientation and dimensions of the piece repeatedly throughout the development.  I use a similar method when painting- I rotate the canvas repeatedly and don't definite a bottom/top until the very end.

The 'spectral anomaly' begins to appear...

(I have to other term to describe what this little dot turns into- and I was raised on StarTrek- thus it became a 'spectral anomaly')...

Another dimensional shift...

and technicolor clouds moving in from all directions.  It's easier to repeat things and achieve symmetrical changes using a square format, regardless if it intend to end with a rectangular or square outcome.

Workin' the dot...

and other subtle changes.

The anomaly... 

erupting.  The orange-ish hue is actually a shade of the negative hue to the original blue.

Finally-

Spectral Enigma …
