Spaceships rule

A detail from a piece about a spaceship (well what else?) encountering a deep space anomaly that appears to be a portal of some sort. Yes, there is always "story" behind my art...it's what I strive to do when I create.

Premiere of First Dieselpunk Work

Yay, so I am back from the MileHiCon 43 Science Fiction Convention art show in Denver, where my full size (12 x18) premiere of Dieselpunk work sold right out of the gate! Sniff, and I was getting attached too...the sucker took me about 45 hours to complete! Not easy when you have a full time day job, raising a family, blah blah. Though the 12 x 18 (modestly framed) is in an edition of forty, I will only have those available through shows. Online (Etsy, etc) I have created  a series of smaller prints (image reduced + cropped) from the full size...here is a low resolution peek at one of those versions.

This poster was a study I put together spoofing the old 50's/60's Science Fiction movies. It is a digital collage intended for learning/practicing putting together the visual elements and saturated illustration styles of that type of pop culture images. In this case it was in the context of (again, lampoon of) a "political" statement. I was hoping to see if I could discover what it was that made those posters and pulp covers look/feel the way they did in regards to the viewer. I was basically happy with how it turned out. Note that this learning project/image uses materials that are copyrighted by their respective owners and were used solely for educational purposes.

This collage includes transmogrified photography of one of my assemblage sculptures along with other manipulated objects and painted imagery.
