Frankenstein Commission

Photographing this new Frankenstein commission for a good friend. It’s a Christmas present for his wife. I ripped up an old paperback book of Frankenstein for the base layer of this piece. Used spray paint and permanent ink to add the color and texture. Image transfer via matte medium gel for the black halftone image. Next step is applying Art Resin to the piece.

More artwork on display at 3M Design Center

I have several more pieces of artwork on display on the second floor of the 3M Design Center in St Paul, MN. They liked the artwork on the first floor so much they asked for more. :-)

Balwant Gargi commission

New commission celebrating the life and accomplishments of Balwant Gargi. He was a Punjabi language dramatist, theatre director, novelist, and short story writer, and academic. I used some vintage postcards from India as the background layer. This is going to be a gift for his daughter.

Aston Martin Commission

I recently finished an Aston Martin commission for a fellow car enthusiast. Here’s some photos showing the different steps in the process- paper pasteup from old books, magazines and maps. Then making some stencils for the cars and logo. And then applying the image transfer (poor mans screen print). Next step is to apply the Art Resin.

New work in progress

I built five 36” x 48” cradled wood frames and I’m working on some new artwork. Here’s a few photos from the work in progress.

Old Record Sleeves as New Art Canvas

I bought a bunch of old used records from The Salvation Army and cut up the sleeves to use for some new artwork. I’m going to paint on top of them and create something new. They will be framed in 12” x 12” black metal frames with glass. It should be an interesting project.

I have some signed and numbered prints ready to go. Each print is an edition of 25 and is signed and numbered in pencil below the image. They are printed on 110 lb. ultra smooth acid-free white paper. They will be available at upcoming art fairs and on my website.
