Here is my 2nd 4'x8'. I had this one flat on the floor for a while in order to break the left to right gestures that I usually create. I think it also works vertically, but tough to photo in the studio light conditions.

This is a great compliment to the previous jazz inspired image, imagine saxophones somewhere and you'll catch the groove.

This image was created while listening to my favorite radio station: Jazz FM. I think that music influences the process.

It's a busy time of year at school as the Holidays draw closer. The children love to work on mural paintings to decorate the classroom. It is interesting to watch them work together exploring the materials and techniques for a large picture. When completed it will be displayed on the door of the classroom.

It may be easy to spot that this image has been built upon several layers. The new forms have only partially submerged the original foundation. Stimulating eh?

This digital drawing was rendered without the aid of photographic references, it is pure digital! Drawing on the computer allows me to develop ideas which could be suitable for canvas. This cool image was inspired by the paintings of the late Robert Matta .

Robert Matta

Robert Matta was a Chilean surrealist painter. His career spanned most of the 20th century. I find his paintings to be tres cool as they evoke the "inner landscape". Three years after his passing, one of his masterpieces
(The Watchmen) sold for 1 million at Christie's N.Y. Impressive!

Another cool link from the webjunkie, and balls of fun!! Wouldn't it drive you bonkers to stare at this for too long,.. or how about wall paper for techno lovers?

The Popcorn Song

I found this one on the webjunkie,.. and I thought that the 70's group Hot Butter were the originators of the famous electronic popcorn popping tune. There are a ton of versions including a transcription for Nokia phones. Neato.

Radio Free Brooklyn

My curiosity about podcasting and itunes prompted me to investigate and I discovered these two guys who create a podcast in a bedroom. Ha, ha, I think this is a great concept, as for their taste in music; well...check it out!

I kept walking past on my way to the grocery store and I finally took a shot of these doors near the toy factory lofts. The original graffiti photo is buried under enhancements from a trial version of corel painter IX. The selection tool hosts a lasso which is good for working on masked areas. Also there is a texturizing feature as well as many other cool tools.
