Open Source 1.2 at The Carnegie Friday, November 30, 2018 (November 27, 2018)

My series of 15 Cloudscapes will be exhibited this Friday, November 30, 2018 at The Carnegie gallery as part of the exhibition, “Open Source 1.2” This exhibition is a continuation of rotating installations and objects selected by a fluid team of curators, artists, collectors, writers, critics and community organizers from across the region.
As an example, I posted a very small Cloudscape drawing that was included in the 2018 Secret Artworks Fundraiser this year.

“Surrealist Symbolism” (November 14, 2018)

Below is a colored pencil drawing I haven’t posted yet, that is part of the series I am calling, “Surrealist Symbolism” for lack of a better title.
I have actually started the process to animate this character. I have drawn and scanned the legs for a walk cycle, the wings for flight, a front view and all the mouths for lip synching. There is still a lot more I need to do to prepare it for animation.

Vanishing Dragon Path Certificate for Tai Chi Quan (November 1, 2018)

I was asked by Tim Coletta to design a logo and a certificate for the Shaolin Martial Arts Academy. A martial art developed by three main masters that is called “Vanishing Dragon Path”. It is representative of three amazing men who want to teach their knowledge to others before they disappear.
I designed the logo – which is the dragon, clouds and the three mountains in the background (the three masters).
For the certificate, I scanned old papers and combined them for the background texture and designed the border. I left faint circles for the ‘chop’ of the master. I had a lot of fun and a lot of freedom to create this project.
