It's amazing the value range you can get with a white paint pen on a toned page. I'm really pleased with how this one came out. I think it's a good example of how I like to use activated backgrounds to work off of.

This piece is titled "Why did you paint us monstrous clowns?"
It is acrylic on cardboard. In somewhat related news, my advanced painting studio had a guest artist critique yesterday and it was very productive. Christopher Sperandio was the visiting artist who (not coincidentally) is a finalist in the selection for Rice's newest tenure track studio professor. He is a very interesting artist and I can't wait to see the other two finalists.

self-portrait on cardboard
This piece is very large (bigger than me- probably 7 feet tall). The medium is acrylic on cardboard, with masking tape. I had several issues with it at first, but I think it's growing on me. This is a detail of the face. In the full version, it extends down to mid-chest.

Detail of Auction Piece
This is a detail of a large wall painting done with found signage and latex housepaint. It was part of my 2007 installation You Can't Beat The System at Project Row Houses, a community-driven alternative art space that is composed of many renovated shot gun houses in the third ward. Working there was a great experience.
