Breakthrough Contest

Earlier this summer I entered Richard Solomon's Breakthrough contest. Although I didn't win, I was chosen as a staff pick. You can read the spotlight on their blog here. Congratulations to the winner, the runner ups, and the other staff picks. The caliber of work is truly astounding.

Iron John

Did this for the Grimm fairy tales challenge on theartorder.com. Iron John is one of the stranger fairy tales that I've read. Part of it involves a hairy wildman being extracted from the bottom of a lake in a forrest...yeah.

Zombie Tourist

This was a quick job that I did over winter break of 2010. The art director wanted a zombified tourist in NYC who wasn't overly decomposed, but rather freshly turned.

Elie Wiesel

Another one from the Ringling Library Town Hall Lecture Series. This is a portrait for one of the greatest humans to ever live, Elie Wiesel.
