Custom Nose Toy

Hey guys! I had this piece in a show at the new Jinxed location at the Piazza in nolibs this past first friday. Everything other people did looked great! I love customs!

Piece for Autumn Society Show

I just finished this painting for the upcoming Autumn Society group show that is themed Dia de los Muertos. I don't get to paint people alot so I decided to do a portrait of the Aztec Goddess of the Dead. The flowers around her are Marigolds which are commonly used during the festivities of the holiday. 

Travel Piece Finish

Where I want to be when I can't stop sweating in my studio.

Where half of my friends moved when we graduated. : (

Travel Piece

I travel to NJ alot during the summer. Here's color studies for a painting I am working on. I'm going with the first one, which was really the 2nd study. After this painting I think I'll be doing a painting featuring England, maybe one with Philly, we'll see what happens.

painting and music

One of the most important things that helps me have fun while i'm painting, other than watching movies and crappy vh1 shows, is listening to music. My fav. albums/artists in the past few weeks have been:

woods- songs of shame

passion pit- chunk of change (ep)

grizzly bear- veckatimest

100 masterpieces classical music (mozart, chopin, vivaldi, handel, etc.)

white denim- fits

older favs:

vivian girls- self titled

animal collective- merriweather post pavilion

New Patternnn

This is the second pattern i've done for my friends blog called mcjawn.

It should be up on the site soon.
