Games People Play: Part 1

This is a two-layered study of games: in the literal sense as well as the psychological sense. Each piece portrays a perfectly normal, every-day game being played, however there is also a mind-game, trick, or prank being played at the same time. My goal is to evoke humor, empathy, and anticipation.

Color Coordination

The following are some of my most colorful pieces. My use of color is often dull, or otherwise vibrant and extreme, as in these examples. I enjoy playing with the balance of warm and cool colors.

How great these times are! 

I just happen to live in a time when upcoming artists like myself can display their passion and product on the wonderful world-wide web. Hopefully, this blog will serve as a record of my development as well as a springboard to get my work seen, known and appreciated.

I will be posting my images very soon.
