  Portrait, Design Class, 1988 Aside: So I got the gift of a flickr pro account from Steve Agalloco. This post is the first of many where I take advantage of the 2 Giga with a “G,” Gigabyte per month upload limit. Profuse thanks Steve, for this wondrous gift! As my first post using this, here’s an image that really...

  Roanoke House, 1991 This was a study for a possible Christmas card I was going to make. A caricature of our house in Roanoke while it was snowing. Very quick, very rough. This is the kind of drawing I really enjoy doing.

  Cyberpunk Guy, 1988 When I was a sophomore in high school I had a friend named Jason Erwin. He was an oddball, computer nerd, and geek. I distinctly remember being driven to see The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai with him. He was cool. I don’t remember what the debt was, but in return for some debt from him I got a copy of the book Neuromancer, by William Gibson. This would’ve...

  Estero Beach Wooden Fish, 1993 From my journals. An illustration of a wooden fish I bought on the beach at Estero, in Baja California. We were staying at the cheap campground on the resort, waverunning and such. I haggled and got what seemed like a good price. I think I gave it away as a gift, but I honestly can’t...

  Dwayne the Bear, 1990 Another invented character. I like him, but he really does not have much of a personality beyond looking lanky and bemused. Great name though.

  Dead Man, 1997 In 1997, I was still working as a Respiratory Therapist. I was working at a hospital in downtown Los Angeles. So this is an image of a man I was going to be giving a treatment to. Instead, I discovered the man was not breathing, and was pulseless. He was dead. I don’t know how...

  Narcissism, 1991 & 1993 Archaeology: Me in 1991 and 1993 on separate vacations, in panoramic photos. Of particular note: seeing the World Trade Center in the background is a bit odd. Also, note the hair lengths here. This was on the path to long hair.

I’m throwing out the list, and blogging it: Jack Cade Jack Cole Jacques-Yves Cousteau James Chadwick James Cook James Crichton James Cabell Jesus Christ John Cabot John Calvin John Carver John Cheever John Colet John Chapman aka...

  Abstract Composition, 1987 A cartoony abstract. There’s a dialogue between the two men — the abstract man front and center, and the seemingly skeptical man on the right hand side. I was decidedly ambivalent about abstraction in my own work. It was enjoyable, but I wasn’t quite sure it was _relevant_ in any way to anything I was...
