Figured I would take a break from work and work on an unfinished project. Goal for this year: finish up unfinished things. I really wanted to work on something a little less constrained this afternoon, so I thought this was a good compromise. I know. I know. Taking a break from work to work :)
This is a page from my collaboration with the wonderful poet, Dorinda Wegener.

A better photo of my most recent painting.
Part of a collaboration with Dorinda.
Probably the last painting I’ll do this year. I assembled the wood from pieces I had lying around the house and primed it months ago. Decided that finishing it up would be a fitting way to end the year. There’s something nice to finishing up projects before a new year starts.
Collage, photographs, acrylic, marker, oil paint stick, oil pastel, crayon, pencil, and spray paint on found wood. Dimensions are variable, but it’s roughly 1.5 ft. at the bottom and 2 ft. at the widest part at the top. It’s about 2.5 ft. tall.
A painting I finished yesterday in my cold-sick state. Sniffle sniffle excited sniffle.
Pencil, spray paint, oil paint stick, oil pastel, marker, acrylic paint, crayon, collage on found wood.
This is my most recent painting!
~2ft x 3.5ft. Acrylic, collage, photographs, marker, oil paint stick, oil pastel, spray paint, pencil on found wood.
For context, the center photograph is one that I took of my dad’s house after hurricane Katrina (as with the last painting).
With these past two paintings, I’ve been kind of exploring the idea of painting as comic. Or comic as painting. More generally, the use of time/time manipulation in a painting.
Second page of the poetry collaboration I’m working on with Dorinda Wegener. Pretty excited about this one!
The first page of the thing I’m collaborating with Dorinda on. Excited about this!
Cover from a thing I’m working on on the side. A collaboration with my friend Dorinda who is a lovely poet.
A new painting! Finished last night. Not the best photo, since it was low light. But hopefully the close-ups give you some idea of things.
Collage + acrylic + marker + pencil on found wood. ~2’x3.5’
