Right here!

Brad Kunkle

These really lovely paintings are embellished with real gold and silver leaf, so the reflections of light change the image as you move (see the artist's website for details). Beyond that, I'm more interested in the repetitive use of the leaf and grass forms to create fluttering texture fields.

This drawing caught my eye over the rest of the artist's work. I find it very closely related to what I'm doing lately, including the tree roots, black bird, graphite texture, and narrative qualities.
It's super awesome!

Cleaning house, New website

I've been making some updates to my web presence! In small news, you'll notice that my sidebar links have been moved, as this blog now has a "Links" tab up above. In bigger news, you'll notice a gray box to the left, which is a link to my new website! It's still in progress but it's getting there. Mostly I just have to photograph my more recent work and upload those images.
I'd appreciate any feedback on the new space, as I'll shortly be paying for it and I want to make sure its worth it. I think it is.
Enjoy.
