Feng Shui Can Suck It

Harry and His Hippo

(Acrylic and Oil)

Commission for the Neil Gordon Family. (See previous version here) Whoops, this picture was taken before I colored in the eyes--just use your imagination. Oh wait, here's two pictures of Harry with the painting--Here and Here.

Initial Attempt at Less-Boring Abstractionism (Failed)

(Acrylic and Oil)

Initially painted for the Gordon commissioned work, but it didn't work. Now, it sits in my office and I stare at the squiggles when I should be working.

Trouble In Tiananmenn Vol.2

(Acrylic and Oil in many, many, layers of paint)

My neighbor, who is sometimes referred to as the Gimp, wanted me to make him a painting. I, of course, agreed to do so. And here is the final product. I like it.

2.5' X 2'

Trouble in Tiananmenn Vol. 1

(Acrylic and Oil)

A total accident. I would do it differently now.

I might paint over this one.

2.5' X 1'

The Deep Sea Vol. 1

(Acrylic and Oil)

I painted some more stuff over this painting and now Lydia doesn't like it anymore. Here's the older (Lydia-friendly) version.

Available for parties.

3' X 2'

The Cosmic Overpass

(Acrylic and Oil)

This painting is so unlike all the others that I think someone else painted it... Brooke? I like pieces of it.

Available

3.5' X 2.5'
