Here is the newest painting.  Top part is the finished painting and the bottom is the process, which I will be displaying.

I have been working on a Heather Graham likeness and decided to do a photoshop of the photo and the model together.  Decided to have some fun with the results.

Some work on the horror side of what I am trying to accomplish for the Master’s class

Working on a painting as part of my masters works.  I have some sculptural things I will be working on next, but trying to get realism and creepy..  more to come.

Utilizing a few found pictures, I took some celebrity eyes and mouths and placed them on someone else.

More coming.. this is only the beginning!

Here I took Monica Bellucci, a beautiful actress, and I tried to make her hard to look at with some small and not so small alterations.  What is needed to remain beautiful, what can be taken away.

What makes a face interesting or beautiful.  What causes us to take pause and become unsettled.

I have been investigating what a face looks like mirrored either way and see how uncanny it will become.

Only one of the people didn’t really suffer any ill effects from their mirrored faces.  I need to investigate this more and try to push this a bit.

While I am trying to sort out what I want to do with my MFA…  No I know what I want to do with the visuals, I am unsure about what I want to say and what emotion I am trying to evoke.

I think this artist is very successful in what I want to say…
