Hart Custom pair #67. The first pair I ever painted was also two Native Americans. Five years and 66 pairs later I get the chance to paint another Native American pair. I was almost tempted to keep these for myself and not mail them to the customer lol.

Collaboration drawing I did with James Jean. When I met James Jean for the second time he drew in my sketchbook. A couple of months later I added to the drawing by painting the hand, gluing a golden magic mushroom cap, and adding the rays of light on the left page. Its not an official collaboration with James Jean but I like to pretend so.

Dry Season, 11" by 14" oil on canvas board. A week ago I had a dream that I went to Burning Man and I woke up at 6AM with a smile on my face. Too excited to go back to sleep I ate breakfast then headed towards the mountains to paint. Over the course of 3 hours I painted this once flowing river path deep in the mountain ranges near my house.
