'Tis the Season

Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season.  I've been busy with all that so I haven't had much to post on the art front.  I did finish my a Christmas themed piece a couple days ago  but it will be for next year, so I won't be releasing it to late in 2012.  I hope to get back on track once the new year begins!!!

Title Winner!

Congratulations to Brant of Wilmington DE! I chose his title of Bare In the Woods as the winner (his was the first submission). Thanks to everyone who participated in my Be Part of the Art contest to come up with a name for my latest piece. I hope you all had fun. I had a really hard time picking! There were some great titles but unfortunately there can only be one name and winner.

Be Part of the Art: Give a title to my new piece

I need some help coming up with a proper title for my newest piece. Submit your ideas, and if I select yours you'll not only get a signed limited edition print but you'll also get bragging rights!

If the chosen title is submitted by more than one person, the winner will be who ever sent it in first. Submission deadline is 11:59 PM EST Tuesday November 29th.

I am partial to titles that are not only appropriate to the scene but also clever. And if they can be fitting on more than one level, the better. Good luck and have fun!

The Original as well as limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available for purchase at the Special First Day Price through Midnight ET Tonight. Orders will be shipped after the contest is over.

Gay Guide to Tenerife cover art

Check out my "Closer to God" as the cover of the next Gay Guide of Tenerife.  I recently licensed them to use it.  If you're lucky enough to be in Tenerife between December - February, look for it.

on the drawing board: streaming

Since rendering the figures is usually the most fun and exciting part for me, sometimes I resist finishing them and switch to working on the background instead.  Otherwise I might want to rush through the background just to get the whole piece done.

on the drawing board: in season

After finishing a painting of a lifeguard in the tropics while their was snow on the ground, and earlier wrapping up a Christmas piece while it still looked like summer outside, it's nice to finally be working on a piece that reflects the actual season out my window.

New Release: "Salvavidas"

A lifeguard has many duties that require him to be in excellent physical shape, such as carrying out rescues and providing immediate first aid if necessary. In addition he must maintain concentrated observation of the beach. But while he's keeping an eye on us, the fact that he sports one of the best work uniforms ever insures a lot of eyes are being kept on him as well.

The original was a private commission, and therefore isn't available. Limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available at the Special First Day Price through Midnight ET tomorrow.
