Almost done with a new painting

Sat Sep 26, 2009, 1:19 PM
I'm so glad I'm almost done with a new painting. I started a new job 2 weeks ago and it has definitely been impinging on painting time. Making a painting called "A Sneak of Weasels," for an upcoming show:

"A Murder of Crows: A Children's Primer"
Opening Oct. 3rd, 6-9pm
Meltdown Gallery (at Meltdown Comics)
7522 W Sunset Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90046


All the artists will be creating animal paintings with the theme of "Terms of venery" (words for groups of animals):

The tradition of using collective nouns that are specific to certain kinds of animals stems from an English hunting tradition.

These are the terms that were considered the proper terms for groups of beasts, fish, fowls, insects, or whatever was designated and they were "codified in the fifteenth century".

Born in San Francisco. Graduated from the Academy of Art University with B.F.A. in Illustration, specializing in Sci-fi/Fantasy art and figurative fine art.
Got into coaching artists and leading workshops in 2005. I was offered a costume/lingerie design job in 2007 at Leg Avenue. Finally decided what I really wanted to do as a fine artist and quite my job in April 09.
Currently I freelance and paint steampunk pin-up girls and portraits for low-brow art galleries.
