Incredible work, I've been following your thematic creations for a few months now, and I'm learning quite a lot. Unfortunately, I live a significant part of the year in the South, which means if i produced anything remotely like some of the courageous paintings (Amazing works of pure art in my oppinion.) I most certainly would be run out of town on a rail.
More significantly, I have been studying your paintings, and absorbing aspects of some of your techniques to intergrate into my own. (I absorb art knowledge and techniques, Borg fashion.) The major reason now is because i'm planning on producing a small series of paintings based on Shoko Tendo, the daughter of a former (I think, former) Yakuza boss.
Insomuch as she is repleat with tattoos, and painting people with tattoos is relatively new to me, and considering the excessive amount Shoko possesses, it is my feeling that you are the best teacher for absorbing skills neccessary to produce the best possible results.
I appreciate your art and moreover I appreciate your openness about technique. I look forward to seeing new works in the future from you.
Thank-You.

You're a painting mofo mr. sir.

PURE EVIL.

thanks for being an important inspiration.
Incredible work...although I'm pretty sure they'll never become part of the Vatican collection ;)

impressive series, really enjoying how you're playing with the values!
Great stuff!
I just wrote about you in my own blog
dope
I like the piece that has a white background and where the nun's face and upper body is lighter then the lower part, it's just a nice transition from light to dark, also the way the light shines on her, gives her this heavenly or enlighted feeling. Oh, I also wanted to tell you that I learned a lot from your dvd, especially about colour and how to build it up on your canvas. Great work, one of my favorites is the tattoed man holding a baby, mostly because of the contrast between the two.
That is just plain out Wroooong. LOL But hey, nuns are human too. Great pieces, man!
You blow me away, original, stylised, dialled.
The two first ones are some of the best artworks I've seen in a while. I would want to own one of those, but due to life choices I will never have money.
