Well, I should write something here before I gain the sad distinction of being the first man to be fired by his own blog. I have spent the last two months, give or take, writing my face off. What am I writing? It's a new novel, a cool, weird, trippy and exciting novel (IMHO) -... Continue Reading →
Symphonist 4 – Timekeeper
I started this week by finishing Timekeeper, part of a series of silverpoint miniatures I'm working on. As I am writing this, I'm listening to the Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments pt2 EP by Aphex Twin. It seems to merge nicely with the piece. Most of the weekend was spent drawing this piece and another thing... Continue Reading →
Images from Pierre Huyghe
Pierre Huyghe from LACMA on Vimeo. I came across the work of this artist, Pierre Huyghe today, thanks to a friend giving me one of his book covers. The video contains some arresting images, which resonated with me. Apparently there was a controversy about the dog in the video, but it was checked out and... Continue Reading →
Tin Man’s Dream
I finally finished rendering The Tin Man's Dream in pointillism. This drawing was started back in 2014 as a line drawing. It sat for a year, during which time I digitally colored the image. At the end of last year I decided to complete it as a pointillism piece. I'm hanging on to the original,... Continue Reading →

Ptah, Lord of Eternity
I've been working on silverpoint for the past few days. Today I thought I would share a new piece called Ptah, Lord of Eternity. It's the second in a cycle of images that started with Flowers of Wisdom (see my previous post). Richard
Lurker on the Threshold
So, here we are, two feet in 2016. 2015 wasn't too bad art-wise. I set out to do most of what I intended. A couple things are up in the air and I had to back out of one thing because of, you know, life, but over all, yeah. A lot of new art was... Continue Reading →
