Blaster! 5x7 acrylic monotype, 2017

Here's a fun print from the gelatin plate. You can see the white lines along the edges of the shapes clearly in this one. Those are caused by the thicker paper. They can be avoided by using thinner types of paper to make your cutouts, but sometimes they are desirable.

I'm using getmosh.io plus photoshop plus premiere to create short animations like these. Instagram has a max gif length of 15 seconds, so there's not much wiggle room on what you can do. The basic process is to create a series of short clips and then use photoshop to make any changes (rotation, color enhancement, etc) and then string them together in premiere.

Working in digital mediums again, using my gelatin prints as a starting point. Sometimes its as simple as a color inversion. You open a portal into a new space, an entire universe brought forth from the ether, or the either, or the neither, or the nether.

Still working off the same gelatin plate I made last fall. I did a batch of ten using this color palate, and while this was my favorite of the mix, I think they all have some merit. I'm working smaller these days for two reason. One its simply more economical and two I can get through more iterations and therefore try more things. I'm going through a phase where I simply need to see what sticks.

Finally received my order of new printmaking materials and now I'm back to the gelatin plate that I so love. I've already made twenty something prints this week, I'll be posting several more in the next few days so stop by. Unfortunately, my "permanent" gelatin plate is staring to break down so I'll need to create a new one soon. Love these crazy prints!

Slice of LIfe

Slice of Life, 6x6 oil on paper

This was a fun little painting. The juice from the orange was glistening under the light of my lamp. Punchy greens and reds compliment each other in a sea of blue. A slice of my life indeed. The orange was pretty rotten though, just fyi.
