New York Times Article/Video & AU Magazine

The New York Times made a video and wrote an article about the Quarterly Art Soiree at Webster Hall, where I exhibited art a few days ago. My paintings made their way into the video!


Many thanks to those who attended the show!

Also, HERE is a link to AU Magazine's online version of their publication, showing several pages of illustrations I did for Kiran Acharya's article on creationism. This link will take you to the first 2 pages of illustrations, and the going on to the next page will show you the third.

Terri Hooley for AU Magazine

I just finished an illustration of Terri Hooley, known as 'the godfather of Northern Irish punk.' As he holds this unofficial title, I chose to depict Hooley like the 'actual' Godfather (Brando-style), with a few twists. Hooley began the Good Vibrations record label, and was responsible for breaking bands such as the Undertones.. He continues to be an active member of Northern Ireland's musical community. This illustration is to accompany a review of Hooley's new book in AU Magazine's upcoming issue.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter

I did some paintings a while back that I never posted of characters from Carson McCuller's beautiful novel, 'The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.' Here is one the young protagonist, Mick. The first image is the full view, and the second is a zoomed view. Click to see larger versions.
