Nineteen: Grounded

March 11th, 2011

A simple yet powerful composition with interesting colors and textures.

Eighteen: Building E

March 10th, 2011

An ominous sky and sharp angles on the architecture of this office building makes for a fun painting.

Seventeen: Rugged Wall and Column

March 9th, 2011

Small urban painting of a wooden column and a rugged wooden wall, in contrasting blue and orange tones.

What did I mess up on the Nabrico painting?

March 8th, 2011

Basically, I stitched together 3 photos, and didn’t overlap them quite enough. Here’s where I messed up, which I realized too late.

Making-of Video of painting of Hermitage Starbucks

March 7th, 2011

A few weeks ago I was commissioned to do a painting to be given as a wedding gift for a couple who had their first date at the Starbucks in Hermitage. This is the making-of video.

Podcamp Nashville 2011 is March 26, just under a month away. Here’s what it is and why you should go.

Sixteen: West Park

February 25th, 2011

Another small painting of an office building on West End Avenue. Except this time I think the name is “West Park.” It’s the same building where Outback Steakhouse is.

Fifteen: NaBriCo Building

February 23rd, 2011

Another view of the NaBriCo building on the Cumberland River, with a bonus. If you can spot the mistake I made in the drawing, you’ll win it!

A detail of a window awning on the Nabrico building on the riverfront.

Thirteen: Battleground Academy

February 12th, 2011

An urban landscape painting of a part of the Battleground Academy campus that’s fallen into disuse. If you look closely, you can see the greens and purples that I used on the white-painted brick walls of this building.

Work in Progress: Battleground Academy

February 12th, 2011

After two crazy busy weeks, I’m finally back in the studio! Here’s a cameraphone picture of a work in progress: […]

Studio Tour Video

February 9th, 2011

A couple of weeks ago I made a quick yet rambly video of my studio area. I also talked about how I transfer drawings to canvas.

January 30th, 2011

One of those serendipitous spots where everything just lined up the right way, with lots of angles and light and shadows being cast and reflected and bounced, creating interesting combination of light and perspective.

Eleven: Downtown Door

January 29th, 2011

I’m starting to take a more impressionist approach to color, as seen in this simple composition.

Overpass and LP Field, Nocturne

January 23rd, 2011

Somewhere between realism and abstraction is a nocturnal urban landscape of pipes, a guardrail, an overpass, and an NFL football stadium across the river.
