Extremely Busy, and New Work

I am very sorry that I have not updated this for close to a month, but I have been incredibly busy running from job to job. Some interesting highlights from the past month:

  • Model groom for David's Bridal
  • Art Department Production Assistant for Kitchen Nightmares (on Fox)
  • Puppet at the Pittsburgh Zoo
  • Filling out MASSIVE amounts of paperwork and holding meetings for my theater company Theatre Sans Serif. On the positive side of that, there are three shows ready to move into production.

Of course, while all of this has been going on, I have also been making visual arts, and am naturally continuing in on this process. As I write, I have just finished up the first step in staining the next piece, and I have the aging solution fermenting next to me. Of course, I have included the paintings of the past month below. Four of these paintings below are actually from a new series I have started, called "52 Pick Up" where the goal is to completely re imaging the playing card deck.
