This was a commissioned piece for Living Dead Weekend. They used it for their program guide and made some limited event prints and t-shirts. It’s nice interpretation combining of a few scenes from the horror classic ‘Night of the Living Dead‘.

This was a commissioned piece with some specific parameters. It had have characters from the ‘Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye’ comic, set in Swerve’s Bar, and it had to have front-man Jim Semonik (Rein-Forced, Red Lokust) in it. He’s a great friend and I’ve been hired to do many projects for him over the years. This painting was a Christmas gift given to him by his lady. This was a monumental challenge to do. Precision, recognizability, scale, and perspective were some of the hurdles I had to tackle. I’ve always wanted to a TF painting… so this was a nice practice piece. I can’t wait to do the next one.

Private painting commission of best buds Jason, Freddy, Leatherface, Michael, and… Ash out on a joy ride.

Here’s a crazy idea… a painting where Freddy, Michael, Leatherface, and Jason duke it out to claim who is King of the Mountain. The idea came to me after hearing a lot of fan chatter at various horror conventions… who would win in a fight. Here’s that battle royale.

The rat-rod… the chariot of the apocalypse! A nice dust ridden painted scene of a dangerous babe with her ride.

Say it once. Say it twice. Betelgeuse is his name and if called upon a third time, he’ll promise to menace the living. This was a fun painting to work on. Based on the Tim Burton film, Beetlejuice.

I really really love this Star Wars universe inspired painting! All of the pieces came together for me to work on it. I opted out of doing the standard Bounty Hunter group pose… you know, the one where it looks like they’re in a boy band. “Hey girl, I’m Boba Fett.” Instead, I give you a menacing view… like you’ve been caught. You’re the bounty.

This painting is not based on Mary Howitt’s poem of the same name… not exactly sure what the catalyst was for this piece… probably just a continuation of my ‘bad romance’ series of paintings.

This painting is a beautiful mash-up of The Monster and The Bride with Sid and Nancy. Both relationships doomed from the beginning.

In Deborah Spungen’s book, And I Don’t Want To Live This Life, she recounts her first impression of her daughter’s boyfriend, Sid Vicious, after seeing him for the first time on a television talk show…

“…Then the camera moved in on Sid. I couldn’t believe it. The newspaper photos hadn’t prepared me. He was extremely tall, pale, and cadaverous. With his drooping eye and malevolent expression, he had to be the creepiest-looking young man on the face of the earth. He looked like Frankenstein’s monster. My daughter was living with Frankenstein’s monster.”

Painting featured on Frankensteinia.

This painting is a reprise of an old idea I had a few years ago. I drew it out, but never committed any paint until now only after completely overhauling the drawing first.

I was hired by the amazing sci-fi writer, Heidi Ruby Miller, to paint the cover for the initial release of her premier novel, ‘Ambasadora’. Unfortunately for me, but awesome for her, her books have been picked up by a larger publisher and re-packaged… new covers. None by me. 🙁

Oh, I don’t know. I wanted to paint something a bit more edgier. I initially started with one image, but decided to expand to a collage of x-ray views. One is modest, many is a stash!

Here’s a painting with a unique perspective. I always wanted to illustrate the Imperial Walkers, but I didn’t want to use the same few shots from The Empire Strikes Back film. I’ve since seen interpreted variations of my painting by other artists. Thanks, I guess?

Modeled after the megalomaniac antagonist, Dr. Doom, to Marvel Comic’s The Fantastic Four.

Yes, I know… she has two right hands.

When the calling rang out for the Resident Evil movie poster contest, I worked a many 24 hour days to meet the deadline. Unfortunately, I was turned down by the man. The company man. Damn Umbrella Corporation!

When the sun moves further down the hemisphere and the night grows long, the life of a leaf soon ends in an autumn jumping. I once loved a woman who deceived me. I did not try to catch her.

After a night of dancing and mingling, these two club goers take a moment to rest, observe and share details of their evening adventures. I integrated past flyers into the background… smaller photocopy versions.

A lady of death and her trophies. Lounging on a yellow ochre landscape of picked clean calcium.

I love death and decay, especially when it’s animated… moving. Morbid thoughts fail to evade me and its influence on my creative process. Seen here, this invigorated bird began as a discovery of the skull and concluded with my mad scientist attempt to ‘nurse’ it back to life.

Grabbing and tugging at their bodies, they continue to seduce him. Two ladies oh so sensuous in their time, now wrapped in gauze and stuffed with herbs. All that is heard is shuffling garments and the fluttering flakes of dust. Ra pays little attention to the devotion and display of affection that looms at his sides. Their motive, another chance at life, to be better than before.
