This is  part of a larger silk screen painting of Nina Hagen that I am currently working on…

Fit to Print

As promised, here are some photos of the actual print:

The main image (the line drawing in black) was silk-screened onto to paper that I had already hand colored with gold paint and black ink. Additionally I hand-painted the colors on the head using gouache.

What I have been up to…

Here is a digital mock-up of a silk screen print I just made:

I will add a photo of the actual print itself soon!

Incidentally, this image is actually taken from series of paintings I have been working on for the last several months, which I hope to show in their completion this summer.

back from the dead?

Sorry it’s been a long time folks.  Been really busy working on a series of 25+ large illustrations for the last few months, and traveling to the Antipodes.  Will be very busy for a few more months painting all of these drawings, but will be sure to post when I am done.

More Rejection

Here are some poster designs I made, as part of a proposal for San Francisco’s Art in Storefronts project. My idea was to hand craft silk-screened posters to represent members of my community, when asked what they did to restore themselves or their neighborhood.

I didn’t get in, but I had fun coming up with these designs….

happy hour?

Strippin’

Sorry to have been away so long! Been busy writing strips about this guy:

His name is Dolma. Supposedly he has a girlfriend named Judy. I have no idea how he makes a living. He has a lot of bad opinions about others but maintains that he is a people person.

to CF, with love

I have been studying…

and I have concluded…

Actually, a few nights back I had to take a break from my own work, and unexpectedly drew the above pile of homage/mockery spontaneously. I hadn’t seen his work for some weeks, but I guess CF goblins had already found a cozy spot in my brain to camp out, cook wieners, and litter.
