Distortion of Humanity is a mixed media piece (pen and digital) with a simple blackletter inscription: “The distortion of humanity is representative of our insecurities and discontent.” The skeleton is deformed, symbolizing the dark, corrupt nature of our humanity and how perceptions evolve–in positive and negative ways.

As summer is here, I thought it would be fitting to create a nature-inspired piece. This peony was created freehand with a brush pen, while the paint splatters were added later via Illustrator and Photoshop. The muted colors and art style are reminiscent of the old Chinese and Japanese woodblock prints.

The concept for this image is rooted in environmental issues. It’s a more pessimistic view of the world–like a hot-air balloon, the world is floating away and the days are numbered as it’s become damaged. I was inspired by the thought-provoking poster designs of Milton Glaser.

The SF Museum of Modern Art is a gorgeous building with patterned skylights, producing incredible shadows and shapes. These images are of an overhead walkway with people walking across.

My bio-mechanical octopus is the main character of “Inevitable Futures”, a submission for the fifth edition of PROPAGANDA LA REVISTA, an online Latin magazine. The theme of the piece focuses on global warming and environmental concerns.
I chose to create a mutant octopus with a stylized gasmask to symbolize the multi-pronged horrors of environmental and climate change. The creature rides on the earth, rather than in its native oceanic habitat. The background has a dark post-nuclear feel, but the sci-fi aspect makes the work more accessible.

Mysterious Creatures is another mixed media piece created in the tradition of old Chinese papercuts and Japanese woodcut designs. The style is a deeper exploration of combining detailed linework with constrained patterns. This was created with various pens and Photoshop coloring.
A signed fine art print has been sent off to Munich, where it will find a temporary home in a local gallery. I’ll update this when more details arrive–so much mystery…

Part of the reason why I love attending social and cultural events is the diversity I find there. This is one of my favorites from San Francisco’s Carnavale.
