Self Portrait...

I have a bunch of stuff to post soon, but because of secrets and/or publication dates I have to wait a little bit. In the meantime, here is a self portrait I did last night/this morning between baby duties.

Piece of Luna

This illustration was for a book review in this coming week's City Paper. It was for a book review of the book Black Postcards: A Rock and Roll Romance. It was written by Dean Wareham, lead guitarist and vocalist for the bands Galaxie 300, Luna, and Dean & Britta. This piece addresses the romantic side of Dean who had an affair with Britta (the lead voice for the 1980's cartoon Jem), who was in Luna, which broke up his marriage and was the start of Dean & Britta, now performing near you.

Robert Redford

This is a piece that I did as a Christmas present to my wife this year. She happens to be a bit obsessed over "Robbie" (his household nickname) and though I'm not a HUGE fan (haven't really seen a lot of his work), I do admire his acting in "The Way We Were", which is where I pulled this image. The idea behind the piece is that it's an homage to the doodling one does in your notebook when you have a crush, or a secret admiration for someone.

Summer Boys

This piece was done for the Baltimore City Paper. Based on a fiction piece about a teenage girl who's multiple relationships/love affairs with convicted criminals keep her chained down, all the while a new guy with a clean record tempts her with freedom.
