Saleo fArt

I am selling my arts. These pieces have shown in a group show in Soho Manhattan and a cafe show in Chicago, some even were at the first solo show in Jamaica Plain. Others in the series sold for amounts the current economy cannot provide.

I want them to go out into the world instead of sitting in the trunk.

Saying I'll take any amount for them never works, so I will say they are $40 each and you will have the cojones to tell me you want it for less or trade or only the cost of shipping. And I will give it to you.

They are mostly framed 9 x 11 with one exception.

There are pen and ink drawings on both sides of a single piece of paper; the front and the "submerged" back. They are framed between two sheets of glass so available light can bring out the submerged bits in even more detail.

The links on some the titles are more detailed close-ups of what they are. Close-ups of the remaining two and below.

All these are shown backlit by the window to show the complete images. Below, you see what it looks like just hung on a wall. Very subtle and some folks won't notice there is more under the surface. But YOU will know....

here is the page in entirety:

Neonlove: fire one

Here are page one and two and the beginning of page 3 of the comic I am illustrating written by Dave Grilli: Neon Love.

This is my first crack at comic illustration. I am doing all the layout and line work by hand and color and text in the computer. I am coming at this from a filmmaking stand point, drawing how i would shoot it and then tweeking the page layout to do things linear moviemaking cannot.

I've got another 30 pages to go and am kind of stunned how long this small step has taken me (a year, real life being a constant distraction) Reinventing the wheel probably isn't helping the rate of progress. I'm just hoping I will be able to hit on some evocative element I find missing from most comics in the process. The parts of humanity not containable in text and little boxes but available in physical expression, the malleable nature of time and complexity of the thought process.

Being a theatre artist by education and trade, I find it excruciating to wait so long for response to the work. I guess I'm looking for feedback of any sort.

Take a peek, if you have a mo.

Thanks!

Sketchbook: June

The Sketchbook Project!

I am thrilled to be taking part in the Sketchbook Project 2011

I just got my blank sketchbook in the mail.

It goes like this: Each sketchbook has a theme. You fill the sketchbook along that theme and send it back. all the sketchbooks are filed with the others of that theme and the sketchbooks make a journey on a six city crosscountry tour next spring where folks can look at them and then they live at a library in brooklyn where they can be checked out forever more.

A supercool aspect is that the barcode on the back of each sketchbook means you can not only track where your sketchbook has been but also receive notifications every time someone looks at your book. notified right on your phone, even.

The theme I chose was "it will be fun, i swear"

yes, it will.
