Last One... Down is the new Up

Hey guys,

Here's a pic of my last piece, Down is the New Up.

Finally, some uploads

A great tragedy has occured: my mother accidentaly wrote on one of my CDs that I burned with pictures.... with a ball point pen. Some of my awesomest photos from Bhutan are probably lost forever!! Anyone have any experience with this? Advice?
Anyway, I'm heading back to SF tomorrow. Here are some of my shots.

examples of CD graphics

After finishing the 6 songs, I also designed my CD label, 4-page insert, and tray liner. Below is the CD label and tray liner:

two untitled recents

My two newest pieces. The small blue one may not be totally finished. The other is large (5' x 3'), which I mention because the photo may be misleading.

You are my center when I spin away

Hey Guys,

This is the newest piece I've been working on.  It's about 95% there, just needs a few touch ups.  Anyway, it's called "You Are My Center" based on the song Videotape.

fundon

so i've been painting 9am-5pm at the slade in london for 3 weeks, initially with a focus on the process of painting, and now with a more literal, figurative approach in a life painting course.

anyways, since my grant is mainly based on thinking through abstract art in terms of materials, process and concept, i've decided to upload images of the ones i think do that best. and because my work is about thinking, i want to include my three small moleskin sketchbooks from this summer to compliment the processes in my paintings.

ps these images appear in the reverse order i did them...if that matters.

Well its been awhile since I last posted but now I've got another piece to put on the blog. Watercolours were much less forgiving than the oil paints I used for the most part of this year. I will hopefully do a couple more watercolours so I'm not left with three oils and this one sitting on its own. Not really sure what to call this one, but 'Free Your Mind' (with accompanying song lyrics) just popped into my head. I might let it stick, or I might not. Only time will tell.

rough studio recording MP3 of Muse

Based on surveying musicians and studio owners for their recommendations, i found what seems to be the most prominent, award-winning recording studio in town. I also convinced the very kind, friendly, and super baller sound engineer to charge me half his usual rate, so that it is the same rate and even cheaper than the other studios. Yay!  Here is an example of a preliminary MP3, the one based on Pygmalion and Galatea. I think it sounded better from his studio speakers... its seems a little echoey for some reason... I will listen to these preliminary recordings in detail and make a note of parts I need to rerecord. I will also add other instruments later, including percussion for some of them.

Hey Guys,

Here are some pics of my newest piece, based on the song Four Minute Warning.  I haven't come up with a title for it yet.
