Found this X-ray of mine in the garage the other day.. I can't believe its been 6 years since my neck injury in the ocean. I am grateful for everything and everyone, especially Ed Dimik and larry for dragging my ass back to shore when i couldn't move and saving my life, and my wife and kids for putting up with me when I couldn't drive, ride a bike or get around very well.

PSYCHOBUD photographs Waiting For The Accident

I took these photos of Psychobud at Radio City I believe around 1984/5. Saw them a bunch back then they were killer live, all great musicians. Their self titled LP is still great to listen to after all these years and I believe that back then they were ahead of their time, Waiting for the Accident and Sighs are my favorite songs on that album.

A new one I've been working on part of a triptych this is one panel of the piece. This one side is 9'x7" the total size of the triptych is 27"'x21"  It is titled -  In and Out of Consciousness. I'm using as the foundation the covers of hardback books and then I glue paper that is sourced from various old books, maps, typewritten paper, transparent paper and finish up with water color and pencil.

Mixed Media Collage

This is the latest mixed media piece I'm working on I've titled it Periphery and its 8"x10".

Im trying to reduce the amount of cut images from the media and incorporating more of my own mark making and drawing into these pieces. Im utilizing watercolor, variety of numbered pencils, ink pens and a bit of acrylic paint.

I'm using paper from old books and transparent paper i like the different shades of browns that these  papers give. 

Mixed Media piece

This piece titled Outpost is 16" x13" and utilizes a variety of papers from old books.

I sketched out the skull, lotus, circles and lettering then came in with acrylic paints, pens and ink.

layered in some transparencies over the skull and a few images cut from books like the silhouetted people, a hand and moon.
