The LED Project
I'm always switching up the artwork I create because of getting bored. If something becomes too repetitive
and too easy, I simply lose interest real fast. With this LED project, it's one of the most challenging
art projects I have ever attempted. Due to this fabrication process and the use of many technologies and
techniques, I will be wearing many hats till the completion, from illustrator/designer to practical machinist to electronic
programmer/engineer and fabricator. Be sure to come back as see the project as it gets further in completion.
Enjoy

-Project 9-
Watercolor Books
This project sort of evolved after completing several watercolors in 2 of my watercolor
Moleskin books. With the books containing 132 pages together, I have made the decision to
focus purely on both books until they completed. My end goal in to publish both books into
one final book. At the current moment, I'm roughly around 1/3 complete.
Enjoy!

-Project 8-
The Devil Babies
When I first started the concepts for the Devil Babies, I wanted to portray a fine
balance between good and evil. Once I decided on an official look for the
Devil Baby, I wanted to choose a soft comforting color. Once my concepts were
complete it was time to start creating acts of mischief for the Devil Babies.
I ended up creating 25 devilish acts based off personal experience,
experiences of others and fantasy.
Enjoy!

Childhood Nightmares
As children growing up, most of us have experienced nightmares.
These nightmares give us a very small glimpse of what our
subconscious minds are capable of doing. What we experience in a nightmare
is very hard for another person to understand and follow.
With that said, I thought it would be interesting to visually
snap a still frame of the nightmare's I had as a child and
recreate these images for others to witness.
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
These are the 8 nightmares I remember the most.
They all are rendered using pencil, inkwashes and pen.
I realized that these images once completed, didn't fully
capture the true darkness of my nightmare's.
I then decided that color was needed to take these images
to the next level.
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
All images were colored in Photoshop and then tweaked using Flash.
Although nightmares are typically haunting and affect most of us,
as growing children. I am a firm believer in facing your fears
and turning the bad into good. I no longer have the haunting nightmare's
as I did as a child.
I hope you enjoy these fascinating images, that helped me
understand and come face to face with my personal nightmare's as a child.

Felt/14x18x5 inches

In this project, I wanted to take my random sketches and really give them life.
Once the basic sketch was complete I proceeded to cut the
patterns of my characters from felt. Once my patterns were complete, I
began sewing them together inside out, in-order to hide my cut edges.
After the sewing was complete, I stuffed them all to give them life and then took
photos of them in the real world.
ENJOY!

Project 4
Ugliness Backed by
Confidence.
 |
 |
In this series of work "Ugliness Backed by Confidence" it all started
with your good old fashion sketch. I then proceeded to capture this image
with acrylic paints and paint markers on canvass.
 |
 |
 |
After completing this painting, I was inspired to sculpt
this character and experiment with making a rubber mold to make multiple copies.
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Once my master rubber mold was completed, I started
pouring plaster into the rubber thus replicating my original sculpture. I then
used spray paint and paint markers to give life and detail.

The Middle East
"Good vs Bad"
 |
 |
 |
 |
With war being so prevalent in this day and age, one can't escape
from thinking about it. So in this series of work, I researched as much as I could
about the Middle East and it's history, thus creating 4 mixed medium paintings
that come together as one.
 |
|
All images together as one.
