After the Rave, 2011Acrylic on Wood
36 in. x 24 in
Email for Price
The first Rave I ever went to was near the Bomb Factory in Deep Ellum...Dallas, Texas. We walked out of there at 7 in the morning and this what I felt and looked like. I think I was 17...I think that was the night Mo broke the rim on the ford lightning...

The Seed Dealer, S.M. 2011Acrylic on Wood
38 in. x 19 1/2 in
SOLD
Two hours north of Mexico City in the town of San Miguel De Allende, lives a man and his wife. Everyday they walk about the town with there two donkeys going door to door selling dirt and seeds for your garden. I really dig donkeys, especially when your sitting out front of your house waiting on a cab, and a couple of them come cruising around the corner. You just don't that kind of coolness in the states...

Bright Day, 2011. Acrylic on Wood.
4ft x23 in.
Email for Price
Most fridays when I am home, I rummage through the vintage stores near my house to look for books. Bright Day is part of the Native American Series I am working on. It is a mix between a photo I found out of one my Native American books and a picture I saw of a quilt that a Native American woman made.

House Keeping, Mixed Media on Wood,
16 in. x 47 in.,
Email for Price
I found a ad on craigslist the other day offering free wood to the first person who could come and get it. I went over and found that the Urban Outfitters was the location. I scored something around 50 pieces of wood that I can now use for canvas.
Living in a hotel on the road can be difficult. You get off stage around 2 in the morning. You wait sometimes until 3 to get your paycheck, then get back to the hotel sometime before 4 most nights. I figure If I can get in 8 hours sleep, I'm doing all right since most hotels have a check out time at 12 noon. You get to the point where you cherish every hour that you do get to sleep, but even then, you still feel like its not enough. From Houston, to Mexico, to New York City, to San Diego, if never fails to amaze me that where ever I stay, I always put the, "Do Not Disturb" sign on my door. And for some reason, they always knock, or call, asking, "House Keeping, are you going to stay another night?" Nope. But here is Ode to the Hardest working employees in the Hotel Buisness.

Self Portrait on the Greyhound, 2011
Mixed Media on Canvas
16 in. x 20 in.
Email for Info
You see a lot of weird things when you travel on the Greyhound. After taking the Greyhound enough, you also learn a a lot of things as well. One, for instance: As appealing as the back row of seats seem, staking out these seats for yourself is a bad idea. For one, they don't recline. Sure, you can lay on your side and have more room than you would normally have in a regular seat, but sometimes, the bus fills up. And now you're stuck in the middle of two people and your sitting at a 90 degree angle on a 12 hour bus ride (that should only be 4 hours by car) and your hung over and you took the wrong schedule and now have to stop at every town on the map. Also, these three seats in the back are right near the restroom. The restroom on the greyhound is a heavy traffic area with heavy odors coming from within. You're better off finding something near the front of the bus. Easy on, easy off. Also, bring extra snacks. It's nice to have a snack on the bus.

Floyd, 2011
Acrylic on Canvas
22 in. x 28 in.
Email for Info
Floyd is my buddy's dog. Every time I stay with him, I try to play with his basset hound, but he is very elusive. I though his flying goggles and his favorite quote would go great on his painting. He loves The Three Amigos and has every episode of Modern Family on DVR.

Frio at Dusk, 2011
Acrylic on Canvas
2ft. by 4ft.
Email for Price
If you've ever been to the Garner State Park near Uvlade Texas, then you most likely have seen this part of the river. The Frio is one of my favorite spots on earth. My dog and I used to fish on the bank to left in this painting. If you plan it right, you can camp out there and be the only ones in the park. The water is clear like a swimming pool, and the air out is a sweet southern breeze sweeping through the canyon walls. We would sit here late into the night fishing and sipping run with cold beer chasers.

Before Panama, 2011
Acrylic on Canvas
4 ft by 3 1/2 ft.
Email for Price
A month before we went to Central America, I wanted to paint what I though Panama might look like. I wasn't to far off in my head. Panama City is very urban with huge "Cocaine" towers that the Columbian Drug Lords supposedly build to launder money. But Bocas Del Toro, and the surrounding jungle is some of the most dense and unexplored terrain on earth. We went to Red Frog Beach, but we didn't see any Red Frogs.
