30 Seconds To Mars
So we got the chance to meet the band 30 Seconds to Mars. We were priveliged enough to contact the right people to arrange a meeting with them and present them a painting. This painting was a kind of compilation of images from their current tour. They loved the painting, and I got them to sign a print of the painting for me to hang. -
Tiger
Tiger Wood's seemed to crumble right before our eyes in 2010. There is an old saying that a woman is a man's ruin. In Tiger's case, it was many women. Maybe all the king's horsemen and all the king's men can put Humpty Dumbty back together again....

Sean and Shiena
These are my good friends Sean and Shiena, both fantastic artists, they are wonderful people, and lots of fun to paint!

Terminator
Yes, another Arnold Schwarzeneggar. This time as the Governator.....this piece was specifically challenging, because it's actually two paintings in one, the Terminator robot, and Arnold. It took a lot of planning and a lot of trial and error. The robot is completely airbrushed, while the Arnold is mostly painted digitally.

Steve Buscemi
This is my first fully digital painting. From start to finish on this piece, I never picked up a pencil, paper, airbrush or anything. I tried this as an experiment, and it just went very well. I will definitely be doing more of these.

MJ
Michael Jackson, like Elvis, will continue to live on forever in all of us that remember him. The strange, sometimes creepy side of him will dissipate over time, but his artistic influences never will.
I know this is closer to a portrait than I usually do, but sometimes people are more of a caricature than real.

Steve McQueen
Pilot of the greatest car chase scene ever.

Michael Eisner
Sometimes monsters don't have fangs, horns, or green skin.

The Beatles
This has been by far my most complex project. It's also the largest. It's 6 feet wide and 4 1/2 feet tall. It took a couple months and is all airbrushed. There are 17 song references in the piece all from the 1967-69 era. Can you find them all? In the course of doing this piece, I realized I like to work large, but it's painful after a while putting your body through all kinds of positions. It took somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 hours, although I probably could have spent 100 more. Below it are some in progress pictures.

Audrey Hepburn
One of the most magnificent actresses to ever grace the silver screen.

Scarface
The Original bad guy. Al Pacino delivered the role of a lifetime in this movie and captivates audiences even today. Although a drug-lord murderer isn't my idea of a good role model, at least he's fictional.
-
Jimi Hendrix
Undeniaby the most talented guitarist in history. Not much more can be said.

Marilyn Manson tongue
This one was done for a contest on the NCN forum. It won first place. If it seems gross, vulgar, and a little disgusting, good. Just like the musician himself, it's supposed to.

Elvis
Consider this the "before" Elvis.

Edward Scissorhands
They never addressed this issue in the movie.....I thought a perfect opportunity for a comedic drawing.
This piece won 1st place in the Studio Piece competition at the 2007 NCN convention.

Samuel Jackson
Samuel Jackson is one of my favorite actors......be it carrying a purple lightsaber, or sporting a four inch afro, I'll be a fan.

Vintage Arnold
At one point, Arnold Schwarzeneggar had the greatest body of any human being, winning Mr. Olympia numerous times. He is still the greatest influence of any body builder alive or dead.

B.B. King
An absolute wizard with a guitar, this man redefines the blues and carries a new generation of people fluently in keeping Blues music alive.

From "Delerious" to "Donkey", Eddie Murphey has entertained us for countless years.

Jesse James
Not the old west gangster, but still a rebel in the modern day old west- West Coast choppers that is. The pioneer of rebelious type motorcycles and the creator/host of the show "Monster Garage", like the original, Jesse James follows no other path but his own.
