Fred's First Car
Made a new watercolor/gouache painting for my buddy Jenn. She just moved into her first apartment, this is her housewarming gift.
Fred is a toy shark we found in the office I used to work at, it became our mascot and source of entertainment/humor during trying times and boredom.
I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

MASSACRE
My good comrade, Stephanie, is currently teaching a silk screening class at WORKS IN PROGRESS NYC
I'm totally looking forward to screen printing again, I loved doing it in college and I'm sure I'm going to love it all over again this Saturday.
I decided to go with a robot theme, since that is what I would wear on my shirt naturally, hopefully if others are interested I'll sell a few.
Here's my process of coming up with my ROBOT SILKSCREEN MADNESS.
It all started with the idea of a robot getting shot from behind:
Here are some explosions I tried out...
Here's what it looks like together:
I showed my buddy Colin who has been my critic and partner since high school. He's brilliant at taking my simple ideas and turning them into awesome ones.
Conquistador firing squad.
That poor robot native never knew what hit him...
Even with all that, Colin thought it could use more...
"...a dead robot on the floor is a must, and pieces of dead robots strewn all over, slag and oil everywhere."
I wish I had more time to finish up that amazing image. I started on one of the dead robots, but I know to make this really work, it needs to be ridiculous.
That's what I got for now. Unfortunately, Saturday's lesson is only going to be working with one color. I can't wait till I can start playing with more COLORS again.
Till next time... MORE ROBOTS.

| this one looks like Jesus rays |
 |
| this one looks more like hair... |
 |
| A little too cartoony for my taste, but just right for the occasion. |
Here's what it looks like together:
 |
| BOOM! Robot Exploding! |

| Yeah, I'm influenced by German Expressionism. |
Till next time... MORE ROBOTS.
