This drawing of two Upper Paleolithic skeletons excavated in Italy is doubling as an Illustration Friday, for the the topic ’subterranean’.
A few new paintings and a couple of drawings, all of which have been sitting around waiting to be digitized.

I was recently accepted into a juried exhibition at a gallery in Pittsburgh – Box Heart Gallery on Liberty Ave. The exhibition (The 9th Annual Art Inter/National Invitational) will run from January 5 through January 30.
Here are the two paintings of mine that will be exhibited:
Wire #7, encaustic on panel, 12″ x 12″.
Wire #10, encaustic on panel, 12″ x 12″.
Knot #9, encaustic on panel. 12″x12″.
The Michigan Daily ran a profile of me and my work — read it here:
I installed my first solo exhibition of encaustic paintings at the Art Lounge in the Union on the 2nd, and it will be up until Oct. 30. Below are pictures from the exhibition (sorry for the poor quality), but high resolution photos of the paintings themselves are in my portfolio gallery here.
There are also two press links for the exhibit: in the Arts Info newsletter and on the UM Event Calender.

Knot #8, 12″ x 12″, encaustic on panel.

The last few weeks I’ve been working on a new encaustic series based on knots, temporarily titled the rather unimaginative “Knot Series” until I can come up with something better.
Here are a few of the most recent:
Knot series #5. Encaustic on panel. 12″ x 12″.
Knot #4. Encaustic on panel. 7″ x 5″.
Knot #1. Encaustic on panel. 7″ x 5″.
Pen and ink on 90 lb paper.
Ink and watercolor.
This series is almost coming to an end. These two (particularly #15) I worked and reworked many times.
Wire #17. Encaustic on panel.
Wire #15. Encaustic on panel.
