About The Artwork

So back around 2010 when I had just become a dad, I had trouble adjusting to not having long stretches of free time to paint. One day I decided to just get wasted and aimlessly slop a bunch of color around to see what happens. Most of those pieces are painted over now, but apparently people liked them. My kid ended up really liking one that looked kinda like a robot running away from a bunch of crazy demons or something, guns-a-blazing. That painting was called Edge of Tomorrow, and it has been hanging in his room ever since. I hardly even notice it. Fast forward a decade, I have this decent sized canvas with a painting that I was itching to paint over. I was also reminiscing about the times where I didn't spend forever working on a painting, and specifically was thinking about Edge of Tomorrow. So I decided "hey, why not just do a big one as a follow up to that one?" My style has changed quite a lot over the years, though, and instead of trying to force something to fit a style I had done in the past, I decided to let the painting kind of express itself. I feel like where it ended up is with a into the life of this robotic figure that was running from all the demons 10 years ago. Things are a bit calmer now, so the artist (I guess that is me?) has time to capture a better likeness. At one point, after painting a bunch of blue circles behind him obsessively, I stepped back and thought it kind of looked like a Stargate or something. This ended up feeling like the right kind of backdrop for this mystery figure, who must be some sort of inter-dimensional bounty hunter samurai robot. You know, a typical IDBHSR. I don't know if IDBHSR is in a ship, or if on some planet or base... Who knows. I did really enjoy working on this and thinking about the character, and am sure that I will be exploring more glimpses into that world again in the future.

I became an artist at a very young age after discovering it was socially acceptable for artists to own books full of naked people. Over the years I have made pieces for fun, friends, profit, romance, to burn as sacrifices to the art gods, pass time, blend in, trade for beer, tacos, drugs, privileges or favors, while playing video games, socializing, going to sleep, doing homework or chores, on a dare, while driving, sleeping, blindfolded, with the lights out, wearing sunglasses underwater, using paint, garbage, blood, other things... I most often create figurative or expressionist paintings, even though I don't formally know what those words mean, and my process involves blocking out basic shapes and colors, and then coming back across with wave after wave of manic insanity until the details are at a place that I am happy with. Many times I will just be so disgusted with my work that I will paint over it, so most of my finished work has about 5 or 6 other paintings living underneath.
