Asian Adventure

I did a piece based on my Philippine Experience:

Pedicab Ride (Sumi ink wash on paper - Spring 2010)

Christopher's Sketchbook, My Sketches.

A summer ago, a great friend of mine who has been through a lot with me made a visit. We did a lot of fun stuff together, such as beaching it and some partying socializing things. We had a lot of fun for a week's stay. More importantly, he left his sketchbook in my car on accident, before departing for Buffalo, New York. Fortunately, as good friends are, he gave me the permission to draw in the sketchbook that had previously been used as a song writing book. I took the pleasure and here are the drawings:

Bag Heads

Statue of Virgin Mary

Completed (Finally!)

Hip Love (Mixed Media on Canvas)

Energy and soul are the main drivers of this piece. I wanted to make sure there was a flavor of both and no mistaking it. Somewhat hypnotic with a sense of a blender filled with LSD explode everywhere. Love enraptured, literally hippy? Maybe not, but definitely with a hippy essence or hippy rule book (or lack thereof).
