Hell yes! I have completed a new painting (IN MY FREE TIME!) It’s called “teeth,” and you can track the process on my joint blog: Father Son Whaling Trip.

Teeth, gouache on paper, 28”x14”

In other news, i’ve finished a couple of watercolor sketches recently— her are two of them:

and for those who attended I/O this year, you might recognize this illustration…working on it made me giggle:

something less interesting to everyone but myself: i finally, FINALLY painted on site. my coworker, mike dutton, convinced me to journey out for a quick landscape painting session recently. i quickly found out that i am a total hack. needless to say, i’m not going to post the unfortunate smattering of watercolor, but hopefully i will show future paintings (assuming i get better with practice…)

I forgot to mention this a couple of months ago, but I found it really funny how I knew exactly when Jon Foster gave out the “Wolverine Netsuke” assignment for this year’s Cover to Cover class…b/c I saw a lot of hits on my blog via Google search query “Wolverine Netsuke…” all of which came from RISD campus hahaha.

Anyway, hits for this old blog post cropped up again (linked from another blog) and I was wondering how often pple were finding this painting….naturally, I Googled it— and this is what I found:

HILARIOUS.

I AM ARTISTICALLY FRUSTRATED! I AM ALSO A WHINY BABY-CHILD!!
