Painting in progress

Yesterday was such a beautiful day (and thankfully, the heat wave is over for now) that I decided to put something on this big canvas I've had laying around my studio for almost a year now. I started around 3pm and just went to town. It's amazing how often I stared at that 3x6 foot canvas without a clue as to what I was going to put on it. Then suddenly I just quickly sketch the composition out freehand and start painting. I limited the palette to three colors plus white. This is a trick I learned when you want a picture to have some harmony without really planning it. lol. I have no sense of color other than what's pleasing to me, I just feel my way thru the dark as it were, and see what I end up with. Here is the work at midpoint by the time I finished around 9pm.Hopefully I'll be able to finish it Sunday (today).

Hump Day...

Tuesday Post

I'm loving the Showtime series, Weeds, this year and the main reason, well, one of the main reasons is Page Kennedy who plays the character, U-Turn. He's veeeeery sexy to me so I was inspired to sketch 'im. It's my first shot and I wasn't really looking at anything at the time. But I will be watching and freeze framing my tivoed episodes of Weeds in the near future...
Also included in this post are some of my sketches of Francois Sagat,international french pornstar and man about town. While I haven't seen a lot of his videos, whenever I see him on a flyer or in person, he's very striking. He actually had his fade haircut tatooed onto his head. I like that he's almost like a character I'd draw or make up. His look lends itself to photography and inspiring art. That french boy's got some flava...Where's the new hot black porn star. I mean someone at least in their late 20's with a fully formed personality. Hot as they can be, the newer crop of porn punks don't leave a lasting effect.

Labor Day

I gotta get out more...Labor Day weekend and I don't have any barbeque invites. Sheesh. Well its hell-hot here in L.A. so I wouldn't be goin' outside much anyway. It's so hot here, it smells like burning hair outside. That's majorly hot. Lotsa a boys in wife beaters, shorts and flipflops though, so there's an upside. Anyway, Happy Labor Day!

The Stop Aids Campaign artwork:Final

A while ago I posted the original artwork for the Stop Aids campaign from a few years ago and here is the finished piece. Thanks to Googlicious for sending them my way...
As you can see, compromises were made...But a nice finished product nonetheless. They're not in the correct order cause I don't have time to deal with Eblogger's friggin' interface...Enjoy!
