Jr. Gong
12″ x 24″ Aerosol on Metal
He is arguably one of the greatest reggae musicians of all time, but that is not so surprising. Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley is the son of Bob Marley. It is obvious that the king of reggae has passed down his talent through the blood lines. This music must endure. It is the music of the people and who better to share it with us than Jr. Gong?
JOHNNY
11″ x 15″ Drawing on Watercolor Paper
Johnny was a good man. Woman hold her head and cry, ’cause her son had been shot down in the street and died, from a stray bullet. Woman hold her head and cry. Explaining to her was a passerby, who saw the woman cry. Wondering how can she work it out? Now she knows that the wages of sin is death, yeah! Gift of Jah is life. She cried, “Ah-um, I – I know! Johnny was a good man, I – I know! Never did a thing wrong, Johnny was a good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, Good, good, good man”, Johnny was good man, she cried – she crie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ied!
GEOMETRICS
12″ x 18″ Mixed Media on Canvas
Back to the basics. Simple shapes to create a simple pattern. If you were at the Enfield Square event over the weekend then you got a sneak peek of this one. There’s something about simple that I just love.
ROSARIO
22″ x 24″ Aerosol on Wood
My wife thinks that I’m making art with celebrities on it so that I can end up meeting them. That might not be a bad idea. Thanks wife. It’s not part of the plan, but if any of these find their way into a celeb’s hands it couldn’t hurt in helping the cause. Rosario is my second choice anyways, so she’s got nothing to worry about.
OLIVE LOAF
24″ x 48″ Mixed Media on Wood
This one is kinda cool. Not that it is one of my favorites that I have made so far, but because it is on video. Yes, that’s right. Click here for the time lapse: Olive Loaf Time Lapse. Olive Loaf is brought to you by Kevin Lee Studios.
PINK N PURP
12″ x 12″ Aerosol on Canvas
You’re so pretty with your all pink clothes ‘n’ your all pink car. I hope the purple feathers in your hair get you real far. ‘N’ that your tiny little doggie in your big pink bag, a purple bow in its hair in the photo you tagged. But don’t get me wrong, I like purples and pink. It’s just stereo types about colors that make me think. Are the colors that she wears what bothers me? Or is it that the media has to let us all see?
MORNING SUN (SOLD)
16″ x 20″ Aerosol on Canvas
Lots of people flock to the beach to watch the sunset. I think I’d rather watch it arrive. It brings the light of a new day filled with something different to us. I love the morning rays peeking through the window and watching the dust particles that dance on them. There is no doubt I could spend everyday out in the sun. It’s almost summer and soon we’ll get to spend more time together.
SORRY
24″ x 24″ Watercolor on Wood
He gave her the only thing in this world that means anything. She tossed it on the floor like a dead squid. Now she’s mad at him for being mad at her. She said she was sorry. He believes her, but wants to let her sweat it out a little first before accepting her apology.
TROIS
12″ x 12″ Aerosol on Canvas
3. It’s a magic number. Yes it is. Well, at least in a Jack Johnson song it is. In my life it is too. Part of one of my nick names has 003 in it, because I am the 3rd member of the Husslafunk Mob. That’s right, I’m in a mob (don’t try to google it, we’re off the grid). I’m also the 1st of three brothers in my family. The third time is a charm. Of course there is more, but I don’t want to fill the page 
NOT A BIRDHOUSE
9″ x 12″ Digital Image on Metal
PSSST. That’s not a birdhouse!
DRIPS & LINES
18″ x 24″ Mixed Media on Canvas
This is the fraternal twin of Lines & Dots. What? Paintings can be fraternal twins? They can, trust me. I was there.
WORD
10″ x 12″ Mixed Media on Canvas
One word can mean so much in the world we live in. One word can make or break a person’s day. These things have power, so be careful what you say.
WHAT I WANTED
11″ x 15″ Mixed Media on Watercolor Paper
This is not what I wanted to draw. This is not what I wanted to paint. Or is it? Is it the other way around? This is what I wanted to draw. This is what I wanted to paint. I don’t know which I wanted to do or not do, but this is what I came up with.
LINES & DOTS
18″ x 24″ Mixed Media on Canvas
This is a test of the lines and dots system. First I dropped down some verticals. Then I crossed over them horizontally. The grid looked pretty good by itself, but needed a little more. I put a peg board on top of it and dragged red paint over the board. This let the red settle into position to finish off Lines & Dots.
YOUNG COCONUTS
18″ x 24″ Digital Image on Metal
If you ‘ve ever been to Maui, HI and been on The Road to Hana, you know about all of its twists and turns. That road can give you car sickness if you’re on it for too long. Fortunately for us we stopped along the way and picked up some lunch and snacks. Fortunately for the “young coconuts” we spared them their lives so they could at least try to grow into adults.
