Abraham receives the promise AND the miracle of redemption continues apace. This small section of the drawing is pretty much all you need to see. It’s pretty good, but putting it all online is a bit much. Eighteen years ago I was finishing up with my Master of Fine Arts…

Four Fish. Three of these make delicious additions to the dinner plate. I hung a show today! It’s down at First Presbyterian Church of Orlando. I believe it will be up until sometime in October. If you’re in town, check it out! What are these prints about? I get that question…

When looking through my drawings of the past several years, I see that I’m coming up short somehow. The drawings are pretty good and I like them, but there is something missing. There’s a vitality that just doesn’t seem to be there. The prints I have been working on, I…

Last time I promised to deliver more than I was able to. I sincerely apologize. (But if I spill all my guts in one epic post, what subjects will I tempt you with in the future?) This time, I hope to tell you a little more about how these prints…

What are these prints about? I get that question a lot. And it’s a good question, too. What’s that weird zombie-thing that your wife is looking at? Are you eating that raccoon? What is coming out of her forehead? What in the world does “The Home Economy” even mean anyway? Give…
