Submission for the cover of a local art magazine called Pink Noise.

Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker

This is the mayor of my home town Christchurch. It's in a pretty bad state after a series of earthquakes over the past few months, the worst of which struck a couple of weeks ago. I painted this as my contribution to the earthquake relief fund. His orange jacket has become something of a trademark to him and the red and black background are Canterbury colours.

What my students are doing at Schoolism!

This is an example of what my students are currently working on for my class at Schoolism. This work was done by Duane, who I believe is my oldest student yet, he's 70 years old and works harder than most people I know. I think he's kicking serious butt!!!

My next class at Schoolism starts on February 18th, click here for additional information on how to sign up, or feel free to email me if you have any questions.

Also, I am planning on putting together a apprenticeship type class on drawing and painting caricatures. This class will be more advanced for those who want to really push themselves. I haven't gotten everything figured out yet on what exactly I will cover, but I do know that it will be hardcore. I will put a lot into it to make it worth your while. Any suggestions of what you would like to learn from me, I'm all ears!

Not quite a caricature but a beautiful study. I am working on a pinup piece and wanted to share some of my progress.
