Jacked Up

 I can't wait to carve pumpkins again. I did this one last year along with about ten others. Come on fall!

Jack Watches and Waits

 

Haunting Season

Many of my projects are in a drying phase, so I don't have anything to show you just yet, but the stores are full of Halloween and it has gotten unexpectedly cooler, despite it being August. No complaints from me! Lots of cool new things in the works, stay tuned!

Rotten

I enjoy photographing my Jack o Lanterns after they have rotted and fallen apart a little, or in some cases, almost completely. These are some of the photos I have taken. I hope you enjoy them.

                 

          

Halloween 2014

My monsters and I had a great October. Halloween came and went like a dream. It never lasts as long as we would like, I guess that is what makes it so precious. I hope you had a great October and that you are looking forward to the next one. I know I am.

Being an Artist

 

Being an artist isn’t easy, it can be fun, but making a living is a real challenge sometimes. I paint windows for stores, teach painting and drawing classes, and teach at a local college that is closing soon. (sadly) I illustrate, do graphic design work and occasionally build something for someone. Sometimes I think I should do something else to make a better living, but being an artist is who I am and it is very hard to not be who you are.

 

The Watcher

The Watcher is one of my attempts to create fine art photography and is one of the creepiest things I have done in my opinion. I plan to create postcards with this image in the future. 

Halloween 2005

Long ago I took photos of my early yard haunts with film. These are my favorite photos to come from that time. I have many more to be shared another time.

 

 

 

 

 

Fine Art?

I love fine art and Hallowe'en, but I rarely see the two meet. I try as best I can to merge the two in my work. I paint, draw, take photos, sculpt, and get mixed results. I hope you enjoy this image of a scarecrow I built for my parents a few years ago. He has fallen apart and is sadly no longer with us.
