brain jelly

beginning of the first creation for a collaboration project of epic proportions.

this would make a great cover image for a 1950's sci-fi horror about genius jellyfish from outer space that fly through the air instead of swim in water.  they wouldn't need space-ships either.

songs from ohio

the great and talented tyler theofilos has used (with my permission) a portion of my drawing for the banner on his band's site.  well, it's not their official site, but it's the place where you can download their EP.  you should do that, they're brilliant.

things to get excited about

movie posters!

the above image is the first promotional poster/postcard for an incredible documentary by filmmaker jarred alterman.  the poster will continue to change, of course, because the project is still in development--this is just the initial visual representation of it.

below is a poster i did for a friend of jarred's, ray foley.  his film has been running on the festival circuits for a little while now; i'm very happy with how this came out, as was ray.

problems

for some reason, you can't enlarge most of the images i just posted.  they look really great up close though, i promise.  i just don't feel like reposting all of it again.  not that anyone reads this.

past projects

the following images are of 2 projects i did--the drawing is from a year and a half ago, the sculpture (room) is more like 2 years old.  

this drawing measured about 6 feet by 3 feet.  the photographs were taken before i finished it, but in the end i was unhappy with the outcome, so basically these images are the best part of the completed piece anyway.

bird

some samples i did for someone looking for character design for an animation.  hopefully a side job i will get?  i honestly have no idea what a character design for an animation entails, though luckily a lot of my friends are animators and explained it a bit.  the top image is the more recent version;  obviously it's unfinished.

recent portraits

the drawing above is of susan starr, a classical pianist and one of the jury members for the new york piano competition.
