Georgia’s Eastside BBQ used one of my photos on their website in the press section! If fame and glory is not right around the corner, then BBQ definitely is.
A quick study and a 48x59’’ drawing. I tried a little abstract variation around the gun and the girl’s arm along with the shadow theme.

I got several shows lined up in the next 3-4 months, which is really cool. It took quite a bit of effort, now I can relax and go back to drawing seriously. I have a lot of work to do to prepare, so I am attempting a dozen or so smaller drawings that are more manageable for smaller shows and that allow me to experiment quicker with a single topic. This one is a favorite: girls with guns and the subject of fear.
“Usura” (48x59, sanguine conté crayon) is hanging at the newly opened 
Carpe Diem along with a few photographs. The drawing is framed and for sale – visit the restaurant to taste the Northern Italian cuisine and buy it. I remember seeing this girl at some music show on L.E.S. She had a memorable look mesmerized by the music, so I drew her later listening to U.S.U.R.A.’s “Open Your Mind” in a loop, hence her name.
Frame was built by ArtToFrames, they did a great professional job and didn’t have any problem with size.
I am on the Acela express from Washington DC to New York using connection sharing on my HTC phone with Windows Mobile 6.5 (3VO ROM), plugged into the laptop. It uses the phone’s T-Mobile data access and lets my laptop be connected to the internet. I can VPN to work, waste my time on Facebook or both. It just works, except that you can’t make calls while you’re connected and it’s rather slow.
I have a big drawing in the “Hearth Throb” show at the CCCP gallery in Brooklyn.
Come to the opening this Friday, February 5th, 6-8pm!
I rarely repost anything, but this is fantastic. Google “Room Search”, searching for keys. I could totally use this.
This is called “Heart”, it’s what is tattooed on her neck - 48x59’’ sanguine conté crayon.
I’ve updated my art site with new and old stuff, including a bunch of digital work and drawings.
The usual conté crayon, 48x59’’. The Chinese should be obvious, the Russian underneath says WorkMetalCognacConflictOfInterestAndShadow.
I knew she was an amazing performer. But those crystal clear piano solo songs and Mathew Barney-esque background videos made it really exceptional.
This year’s database security video smackdown, an online competition that my day job runs is hilarious. We got dozens of submissions, one more professional than the other. I particularly like one of the finalists, “A Humble Plea for Database Security”. Watch it.
I lost its name. Maybe you know? It was a warm nice place to hide from the freezing Berlin weather.
