This is a large painting I did as an ode to AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com. I was entranced by this family I've never met and ended up doing many studies of them.

Once I asked my friends Rod and Leesa to take a picture of themselves for me to paint as a portrait. This is what they sent me. I added some dinosaurs from Calvin & Hobbes in the background for good measure.

This is a watercolor painting of the opening sequence from “Aguirre, the Wrath of God”, which is my mom’s favorite movie.

This is a 5x5' painting that was turned into the Rainbow Girls Perceptronium album cover.
