my newest work to date. again, this was painted over an older painting that i was not fond of. and the end result is something that i'm quite happy with. originally painted in july 2003, it sat in my studio all this time just waiting for a new life... do you ever turn your back on the flowers?

ingreened vert
here's a strange little painting with hardly any paint on it. i love this painting and i love the title more. don't you?
enjoy.
the piano
here's a little painting from september 2003. there is no piano in the painting, but the way she is sitting makes me imagine one.
enjoy.

this side face down. glue this side.
happy valentine's day! i'm enjoying this day working on the great cataloging project! i've got 2 full photo albums full now with 200 photos each. the painting here is number 400 and a great painting that has been hiding out in my studio behind a larger painting. it took me a few minutes to locate it, but now it's hanging on the wall in the living room. i hope you remember to put the glue on the proper side and always read the fine print!
enjoy!

stuffed (or. lady smith-smythe)
my newest work. painted this yesterday. i painted over stuffed, an old painting that i was not fond of. i do like to keep the original title, but this work required a second or alternate title - lady smith-smythe.
enjoy.

panda
so one day my friend keith said, "so i saw these really large paintings of tiny things". to which i replied, "someone should do tiny paintings of giant things." here is panda. 3"x5".
enjoy.
simon
simon loves to have his photo taken. this is a recent photo of simon taken with the hipstamatic app for the iphone.
as i've been working through the great cataloging process, i've made sets in flickr of self-portraits, eula, and now i realize that i need to make one of simon too. i have several paintings of him and want to do several more..
enjoy.

fish tail
something new:
so here's my newest painting, a self portrait. it's been a couple years since i've done a self portrait so it was time. (i created a set of self portraits on flickr if you'd like to see more of them...) in the theme of the 2010 living room show, i recycled an old painting, fish tail. when ever i paint over an old painting, the old name stays. it's a reminder to me that there was another painting here before. it's also hilarious when painting and title clash like this one.
something else new:
if you'd like to know more about a particular painting of mine that you saw on flickr, just post a comment that says 'please blog this" and a specific question if you have one and i'll write about it here...
enjoy.

eula
it was this portrait of eula that first gave me the idea to call my style of art 'post naive'. i thought it was funny and somewhat representational - i love naive art, but have had too much instruction (by eula) to really be considered a naive artist. post naive seemed like a natural progression and i used it for a while (and still do occasionally though it confuses people or perhaps because it confuses people). enjoy.
