Paintings from Korea
Groundlessness Of A Celestial Warrior
Did the ruff about 2004 or 2005. The painting didn't come till 2007 -one of my hardest years ever. A woman falling in nothingness, all eyes on her. She doesn't fight it, she just waits. She looks up to the Universe in hope that something will happen. Home, alone, drunk on red wine and feeling sorry for myself... Unintentionally this painting collected all my tears, pain, confussion and feelings of losing control of Myself and of my Life... and interesting enough, without me even noticing, i painted another self-portrait...

The House of Ten present DEIGHTON'S AFTER DARK
This was the first time Murder of Crows had a group showing.
Neal Ryan and Cody Westman performed this night. I had the pleasure of backing them up on a few songs with my awesome djembe beats...

We were introduced at the very first "Deighton's After Dark" show, a multi-media event held at Deighton's Well in the heart of Gastown which included art, music and short films by local artists presented by House of Ten...

Thoughts Stitched Together
...a collaboration i did with the lovely, spooky and talented Megz Majewski for the Ayden Gallery's "Merge: Collaboration Show" in 2007.
The thought bubble was my contribution and the girl with the thought, was Megz's.
...this was first time i ever painted these creatures... and so "TeddyMares" were born...

Lil' Miss Muffet's Revenge
Wednesday, October 15, 2008
A small window into the mind of a Jezebel spirit...
In order of birth, from top to bottom...
The first one originally had hearts on her privates, but as i was painting, the hearts changed into flames... therefore the title "Change of Hearts".
...the next three paintings strangely enough reflected events and feelings that i was going through at the time i was painting them, which i didn't realize until after they were completed. My subconscious? "Queen of Hearts", "Broken Hearts", and "Still Heart" all representing the devil girl in me, i guess... starting at a realization of Being, moving into actions, and then finishing off with a bit of regret and contemplation.
Devil Girl
This painting was given to a friend of mine, Didier Arpin, before he left for Montreal. It was the beginning of a series i did involving devil girls...
Now whether or not this was a self portrait at the time... i have yet to figure out.
