it's been a minute, Time to update I think. With school and everything I don't really have time to do a "normal" type post, but I figured I'd update with some things I haven't posted up here before, some recent prints and paintings and such, as well as a preview of coming work.
Related to this post, I did a couple more editorial portraits. I haven't done any since, but I've got some plans for new ones which should be rad.
They were a lot of fun (like a puzzle!) and totally worth checking larger.
Series of prints based on...something or other. really a series of fortunate accidents actually.
And I'm working on a robot series for my final semester, but I'm not trying to spoil it here, least not while everything isn't finalized. So here's a drawing that I'm not painting. 
Based on George Bellows' "Dempsey and Firpo"
but then my teacher pointed out to me that Eric Joyner already did something similar:
Not knocking Joyner, whose stuff I really like, but Bellows' composition is so ridiculously good, it's a shame that Joyner's doesn't approximate the awesome angles of the original. I know it's not a straight cover, like mine would have been, but it just doesn't have the power the original does.
anyway, more when I can...

Are you still gonna do this? Is your project all classic paintings with robots? I wanna know!
Not exactly, though it would be fun, and my teachers almost had me do it, but that's a little too much pop culture stealing for a thesis project. I am still using robots though, in scenes that LOOK iconic (except for one that I am doing a straight reference, but that one is a surprise) but don't actually reference anything.
