The mighty "carju" small painting series continues with interpretations of Airwolf and Ark II. I
went too far on the Ark II kaiju background, but wolfie is making me
smile. He looks ready for action. Working on wood panel has been an absolute joy, but I'm missing the textured canvas board surface used for the first three of the series.
Today, a certain blue Pacer gets the carju treatment. I can't wait to dive in and get to work on it.

The Funk of 40,000 Years Artzine
Good news! I am having a new limited edition printing of The Funk of 40,000 Years zine produced for release in early June. It will have a laminated color soft cover with perfect binding and black and white interior pages. This is an artzine of sorts featuring over 30 sci-fi-inspired interpretations of many of my favorite funk and soul songs of the 70s and 80s. The proof arrives later this week...

Carju Series
This week, I'm continuing with the "carju" series. The idea started with a series of sketches done for QUICKDRAW SF based on turning my favorite cars and vehicles from various 80s TV shows into kaiju (generally hybrid creatures from the Japanese monster movies, TV shows, manga, anime, etc.).
I currently have my rendition of Airwolf in progress on a wood panel with most of the underpainting done. The smoother surface has me leaning toward a more graphic approach, emphasizing the shapes and the negative spaces. More to come!
