In order to get exposure I enter some of my work in art contests. One of my pieces (The Human Fly) will be in the next print magazine issue of Direct Art, and several of my pieces were also accepted for Digital Arts: California‘s digital art competition/exhibition Wide Open Digital 2. I was pleasantly surprised…

I’m pretty happy with this piece. It blends several of my approaches, resulting in a non-cliched Sci-Fi, mixed with an Impressionist treatment, Baconian distortions, and faux painterly flairs including Van Gogh brush strokes. So, I’m mixing my Fine Art with the Sci-Fi (now “retro”) of my childhood, which represented a window of escape from quotidian…

As the title suggests, this represents my attempt to depict crossing over to the other side. Essentially, I’ve attempted a digital rendering of something like an…

If you saw my last piece, you might be surprised at how different this one is from it. The last one looked like a painting and was all drawn from the imagination on the computer. This one is a very elaborate collage of photographs I took in Vientiane (I’ve lived in Asia for about 7…

My latest piece, just finished. This one reeks of me. I think anyone who knows my work, and especially my early paintings, would instantly know who was behind this image. I did it completely from my imagination, in a not-so-efficient manner. I tried an experiment of starting with a composition and color scheme I liked,…

These are my more serious new images. All are digitally created using only Photoshop, my own photos, drawings, and endless tablet work. Bellow the “gallery” are all the same images in standard format. Below are the same images. Some have links to in depth posts about them with close-ups, and background information about the process,…
