Old Mechanical Dragon

Old Mechanical Dragon: Initial Drawing

“Old Mechanical Dragon” is another mixed media piece that had its start as an ink drawing and now lives as a photoshop-textured creation. Dragons are a favorite subject of mine, and they’re always an adventure to produce. I wanted to explore rusty surfaces and took some artistic licenses to my winged creature. The background is a grungy photo texture from one of my many walks around SF.

My Display at the Crucible Holiday Art Fair

My first art fair was so much fun. Many thanks to all who stopped by my (and Stef’s) table. The best part of the whole experience was talking to folks and getting feedback on what pieces and styles spoke to them. It was enlightening that sometimes animals (particularly phoenixes) and other subjects became healing symbols for a dark time or talismans in one’s life. The art prints, magnets and the custom jewelry (art pendants and steampunk) pieces were popular, so it’s very encouraging.

The other vendors I met were equally inspiring, such as the uber-cool shirts from Like Minded People and the delicious miniature pies from Charlie Frank.

The Crucible is always a great venue–for artistic inspiration and fostering creativity. Below is a brief video clip of one of the fire performances. Beautiful!

Steampunk Transitions

“Steampunk Transitions” is a result of my fascination with the steampunk style. There is a nod to mysticism with the incorporation of feathers, which function as a shamanic headdress. The piece was created with graphite and photoshop coloring.
