First Batch
Just finished the first batch of test apparel, which included S, M, L and XL sizes in black, gray and white. Learned a bunch, but still need to figure out a lot.

Coral Splash – The Tahiti Collection
I’m not a big fan of wearing white at all … with the exception of the white leather loafers I wear on Tuesdays. Painted a few white tees anyway.
Vegas Casino + Rainbow OPTX Shades
Went to Vegas last weekend … this is what it looked like the whole time thanks to a pair of diffraction glasses I picked up from Rainbow OPTX. Watch for more images soon.
They Say An Artist’s Work Should Reflect Their Life
I must be on the right track …
Blue Violet & Green Interference
So this stuff is pretty rad. The image below is from one of four pieces I did on black foamboard — the interference paint tends to show a lot better against darker backgrounds.
Elle A Dit Two… 18″ X 36″ Acrylic On Canvas
A look at the other half of the same commission mentioned yesterday (Elle A Dit One). This piece also an 18″ x 36″ canvas. Both pieces were painted at the same time with the idea that they’d be displayed together.
Again, the commission was based on this painting I’d done at the shop.
Elle A Dit One … 18″ x 36″ Acrylic on Canvas
Here’s a commissioned 18″ x 36″ canvas painting I did for a friend — she liked the colors in the painting below it, which I did on packing paper while working at the art shop.
I don’t know … the original still holds a certain charm for me personally. The violet pops better against the light brown and the bronze and gold seem to compliment it as well. The painting below was the first I experimented including spray and splatter and hard edges.
Accents
I’m a fan of going big — painting on a large scale allows abstract expressionism to take form with little limitations, however, the small accent pieces are fun every now and then too. I did these a while back for my grandma, but plan on expanding with various colors and sizes.
Violet Sex
This 18″ x 36″ canvas is a good example of just how dark certain colors can be … there was very little black used to create this darker piece.
