I Invade NY
This t-shirt is dedicated to my brother and future sister-in-law. They live in New York City and I thought I would make something for them. NY has many dangers but none worse than hungry aliens bent on destruction and domination. Enjoy!

Gushing Rainbows
I know the tragedy in the Gulf is on a lot of people's minds. I had this idea for a shirt for a week or so but wasn't sure if I should do it or not. The real purpose is to make someone smile when they see it. I am not the type of person that sets out to make big important statements about issues with my art. I try to do my art and hope it has an effect on the person viewing it whether that is a smile, chuckle, grimace, or whatever else. People add their own experience when viewing art which is why I love doing it. Let me know what you think.

Umbrella Monster
This is another piece in my monster series for kids clothing. He came about in a brainstorming session after I decided I didn't like the other sketches I had made for monsters. This one is all set for the rainy days ahead.

5 Year Old Princess
The other day my daughter was drawing a picture at the computer desk. When I saw it I thought it was really good so I decided to make it into a t-shirt. I made some slight changes to it and then added the cloud and stars but I think it turned out really well. I am very proud of her work. Here is the original.

Lil Monster
With the addition of kids clothing on Red Bubble, I decided I wanted to try some designs for kids. I liked the idea of a single color, simple shaped design. I thought a monster theme would be appropriate for my kids' designs. Definitely not drooling, scary monsters but nice, cute ones (maybe a little devilish, these are for kids after all). So hope you like it. I already have a few sketches for some more.

Frank Sings
This is my newest t-shirt. I have been working on it for about a week now. This is one of those ideas that came while looking at other people's work. I saw someone's zombie t-shirt and I started thinking about classic horror monsters and putting them in weird situations in my head. This one seemed funny to me. I think singing probably helped Frank to be less angry and not to kill so much. Enjoy.

Mask Lithograph
This piece is one I did while in college. It was for a lithography class. The image was drawn and printed from a stone. It was part of a series I had done on masks. I really liked how this one turned out.
The mask itself has a more organic face-like feel than a hard edged, carved mask. The marks on the mask were made by applying the grease pencil to the stone and then taking sandpaper and rubbing the surface. The sandpaper would remove the pencil until the paper became full of the grease pencil and then would actually leave grease marks on the stone as I was rubbing. I like the effect it created. My favorite part though is the hint of an eye behind the mask. I hope you like it.
