SLEEP WITH ANGELS
Digital Image of Drawing and Photo
I was planning on using these 2 images on 2 different days, but thought it might be more interesting if they were combined. I based my drawing off of a model’s picture online and I took the photo while in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. Combined I think they make a great statement. I just don’t know what it is.

This is something new I’m trying. Every once in a while I’m going to check out my fans pages and see if there is anything I can grab ideas from. This is my first attempt at it from a profile picture. Thank you Ms. Garcia for the inspiration. If you’re reading I hope you enjoy this.

I’m really getting into making these faces. I love that they are simple shapes all meshed together to create something. It’s kind of how Chuck Close works. By no means am I comparing myself to Chuck. His work is simple shapes up close and then when you stand back the images appear. My drawings are not on the same scale as his are, but are similar in the way that they evolve.
HOBO ALIEN MOUSE

This drunk little guy is Hobo Alien Mouse. He started as a doodle (in a meeting, obviously) and then got scanned into my files. I had taken the background picture while walking around in Northampton, MA. and combined them for this picture. He may have his vices, but is in search of change… or he just happened to sit down there and was not able to get back up.
ROCKA

Who is that? Is that you? Is it me? Anyone that draws faces a lot will encounter these questions at some point. Right Kev? I love to draw faces. Not real faces, just faces that pop into my head. Maybe they are a part of my subconscious or something, but they always keep coming up and they speak to me. Rocka is one of them and is set over a photo that I took of a concrete wall. I’m sure there will be more of these to come.
