Distortion of Humanity

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.

While taking a photowalk in San Francisco, I stumbled upon the very talented BMX flatland legend, Pete Brandt. He graciously allowed me to shadow a few of his practice sessions. Even if you’re not privy to the BMX flatland scene, you could appreciate Pete’s strive for innovation, work ethic, intensity, and humbleness–all the elements of a great artist. He has over twenty years of experience, practices a minimum of eight hours a day, does competitions/shows/tours worldwide, promotes his DVD (“Persevere” video clip) and spins amazing Drum and Bass. He’s a whirlwind of energy. . . check out the rest of the photos here.

Inevitable Futures: Gasmask on the Octopus

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

Posted by Sherrie Thai of Shaire Productions.

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…
