I’ve been busy in the studio working on another pair of works, a drawing and then a painting. The newest work, titled The Gravity of Venus, is now up on my website, but here is a preview:
To see the full painting, as well as images of the drawing, please check out the New Works page of my website or click here. Anyone catch the Botticelli reference??

I’ve really taken a liking to painting animals lately. Different animals have been popping up in my work from time to time and this time, after the success and great feedback that I received for my Self-Portrait as a Polar Bear painting, I decided to work in more animals into my newest work. I think it’s a good fit considering these new paintings are kind of steeped in mythologies.
Check back soon, as while I was painting The Gravity of Venus, I took photos every hour to document the painting process, and I’m in the middle of putting together a little video that will show how I work from beginning to end, hopefully giving a little insight into the amount of work that goes into one of these paintings!
