H to the Eisen. B to the E erg

so i've got a few shows/conventions coming up in the next couple months. i want to come correct with a lot of new stuff, especially traditional work...traditional work that would be affordable enough for folks to own an original. ive been enjoying painting on wood, so my plan is to produce a decent amount of small paintings. that way, i could get a lot of small projects done, stay fresh, and build a small army of "paint-sketches".

so tonight i started a 4" x 4" wood panel. I've been watching a lot of "Breaking Bad" the last couple weeks, and decided to try my hand at a Heisenberg piece. I didnt give him his hat...maybe thats a mistake.

and run through an instagram filter.

its good. not the sketch, i mean just that im looking forward to painting a BUNCH of small things quickly, instead of laboring on large projects. and its not about the money or selling things, its just about producing a variety of traditional work that is actually accessible to people who are into that stuff. 

should be posting more very soon.
