My painting of Michael Myers. Oil paint on 16x20 stretched canvas. If you saw the previous post, this is the actual final. If you didn’t see the previous post, check it out for serious “art tips”. This one was fun and just in time for Halloween. 👻🔪

My latest painting in my Deep Sky series, The Comet. 18x24, oil on stretched linen canvas. Revisiting the theme of adding another softer element to the scene to contrast with the skull imagery. Sometimes creating these scenes are 75% problem solving, 24% painting and 1% beer. Time consuming. But I really enjoy bringing these to life and feel like I’m starting to get some consistency and continuity with this series now (stylistically). Thanks for indulging me on them. 🤘👾

My painting of The Crow - 24 x 18, oil on stretched linen canvas. Ever since I did the sketch, a month or so ago, I wanted to do a full-size painting of this one. Took me a little while to get it finished, working off and on over the last few weeks, but it’s done. Let me know your thoughts.

My latest painting in my Deep Sky series. Oil on stretched canvas, 18x24. It’s a prequel to the previous retro Mars astronaut painting. I thought I was finished a couple weeks ago, but kept adding elements because it helped tell the story. Initially it was just going to be a gloved hand reaching to the ledge or up to the sky, but it needed more. I added the top of the helmet, then the other hand gripping the edge while continuing to tweak the rest of the painting. The concept pieces take me longer because even if I have a plan, the seem to evolve and take on a life of their own. 🤘💀 .

My painting of Chief Brody. Oil on stretched canvas, 20x16. Just in time for the beaches to be open on the 4th of July. Hope everyone has a great day! This one will complete the set for someone that owns three of my other Jaws paintings.

My painting of a Predator. 36x24 oil on stretched canvas. Because of the Xenomorph paintings I get a lot of requests for the Predator, so here you go! These are equally as challenging as the Xenomorph. Lots of little details to make me crazy but it was fun and good to get back to painting. Let me know what you think.

My drawing of The Crow. 11x14 white charcoal on black paper. Done just in time for this weekend. Should I do this as a larger painting?

Painting sneak peek! A crop of a current work in progress. 36x24 oil on canvas. I usually don’t post a lot of unfinished work, but I’ve been bad about posting regularly. Plus, my chosen medium is not the fastest and makes it easy for me to be lazy about it. But like I’ve said in the past, you at least don’t have to worry about getting spammed from my channel. Stay tuned for an update on this in a couple weeks or so.

Thank you and a ridiculously HUGE thank you to all the amazing people that came out to support me at this event. I’m humbled by the people that come out every year and buy my art at this event. I didn’t take enough pictures, but the long-time friends and new members to Team Shenanigans are appreciated more than you know. Thanks to you, I have no choice but to create more paintings. Lol. 🤘

My latest drawing of Elvira Mistress of the Dark. 11x14 black paper with white charcoal pencil. It’s been a while since I’ve posted any new art, so I wanted to do something fun to get back in the groove. More paintings to come, stay tuned. Hope you enjoy!

I’ve not been posting much lately. So here’s a post of me in my booth until I get some new art finished that I can share. The good news is you will never get spammed from my feed. Lol.

My booth at Coastal Comic Con in Wilmington. North Carolina is so hot, they had to put an extra fire extinguisher out in front of it. Come on out if you get a chance, it’s gonna be a good time!

My painting of Lon Chaney Jr. as the Wolf Man - 16x20 oil on canvas. This was the last painting to get finished before Mad Monster Party this weekend in Concord, NC. It is the third painting in the more expressive style for the Universal Monsters. They have a whole different vibe in person.

My newest painting in the Deep Sky series. 36x24 oil on canvas. This on was fun to incorporate the hands (swipe to see my reference models). I’m also too picky to just randomly splatter stars, so I had to break out the tiny brushes 🤪. Hope you’re enjoying this series, because there’s more in the works. 🤘💀
