Pretending

Recently completed illustration for "The Pitch" Magazine. The article was about bands covering The Pretenders songs.

Part of a series I'm working on.

Death & Frolic

Just finished this album cover for Fellaheen, a band based out of the New York City area. Check them out here:

The album is called, as seen above, "Death & Frolic". You can listen to it on their site! And you should -- they're pretty rad.

Tea Party

It remains to be seen what exactly will happen on the 2nd, but it's clear that these people will have a great deal to do with whatever it is. How they handle the next two years will be another story.

Oh, and for those of you watching, my website has been updated with this painting and this year's Applefest, in addition to some of my black and white work from the summer. Sometime soon I'm going to completely redo the "spots" section with all of the spot work I did this summer.

TCNJ

I finished these more than two months ago, but it's definitely about time that they graced the internet. They're in graphite, which is unique for professional work, I think. I liked the outcome, which is good, because it was a pretty long process. The story was about the discovery of the identity of an anonymous author who wrote about the inner workings of the Lincoln Cabinet during its' early days. Each one of the figures up there actually is someone real, which is fun. I got to really immerse myself in research. History is good.

Oh, and the two portraits below were also part of the assignment -- professors that had uncovered said discovery.

Applefest 2010 Final, Crouse College

Here's the final image for this year's poster. I finished it a few weeks ago, and the posters are already up! Later if I can get my hands on it I'll post a copy here. I'll also be running an art booth at the festival, where I'll be selling some drawings of buildings around town, as well as a few other paintings.

In addition, I was recently asked to do a "portrait" of the main building of the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Syracuse University, my alma mater (I feel so old being able to say that!). I've posted that here too. It was really great being able to work for SU -- and to leave my own permanent mark on the school!

Next time: that TCNJ stuff. Also, some personal work. Until then, enjoy!

Obama

Midterm woes -- November isn't looking to be a very good month for the President. And the recent additional economic proposals almost certainly aren't going to get passed before then. Not a fantastic time to be a Democrat.
