I love making art that is a bit on the macabre side.  I grew up on Tim Burton, The Dark Crystal, Edward Gorey, The Last Unicorn, Monchichi's.  What?  They were FRIGHTENING!  I tend to take that kind of imagery and marry it with super feminine girls and bright colors.

But sometimes, I just want to make silly, superficial little things that are fleeting and quick and seem more like something I'd flip through in a magazine. 

 

 

This is the kind of thing I'm doing at the moment.  And when I get my fill of this, back to larger and more in depth paintings.

 

BTW, all of these have been purchased except for The Struggle, if anyone is interested contact me!
