The Jellies in the Aquarium where amazing to me. The design and color combinations where so alien it was fantastic.

This was the Monterey Aquarium. The kelp forest and other exhibits had so much color and beauty to them.

I was in Camel this weekend for a wedding and the beach was over cast but gave a great mono chromatic feel.

this is a work in progress. i've become much more interested in paintings that ask questions rather than give answers. with this piece, im still trying to find the color and composition and i want to give clues of what just happened, but also leave much of the story up to the viewer. i have an entire back story to this, and will try to convey that as much as i can. this was inspired by the "gunfighter" piece i did a while ago. just as that piece should ask questions of, who is this guy, and why does he have a satchel of money, this one should ask, why are there 2 horses and only one wounded man? any ways im still working on it. cheers.

As usual i have no idea with what im doing with color and this one is a bit sugary, but there's a benefit to save the Sayama Forest, also known as Totoro Forest. This is the piece ill submit and figured im just about done.

heres another piece i've been working on for an art auction. the color has been the toughest thing and all i can say is, when in doubt add more layers and color burn the hell out of it.

2008-02-22T09:30:00.000-08:00

i love crime dramas and film noir. so im trying a short story and trying to find a different color scheme for this genre. its been done soooooo many times, but i would like to try a take on it.

2008-02-21T15:56:00.000-08:00

i was talking to my office mate emma about compostion, light and depth of feild in drawings. i went to muir woods and found amazing natural elements that i try to use. dramatic lighting and the rule of thirds of course. simple but they work.

2008-02-21T15:54:00.000-08:00

with these i played with the idea of the path disappearing

2008-02-21T15:45:00.000-08:00

for these i tried to have the path or a tree lead the eye into the compostiton

2008-02-21T15:39:00.000-08:00

these pics are me trying to get light as a focal point in a largely black space. i added the guy in the shot to complete my idea and prove that you can get a idea across with simple light.
