If you were thinking this a heavy metal band from Brasilia, you're gravely mistaken.

These are part of a series of tombs I photographed at Père Lachaise Cemetery while living in Paris, France, 2008-2012.

These are snapshots of some of the nearly one hundred pieces I created while at the Art Student's League in New York City in 2013. This represents my first foray into painting. My hope was to gain a better understanding of the basic elements of abstract painting such that I can explore new areas in my digital work. I believe that hope has been fulfilled, but I also have fallen in love with painting as a vehicle of personal expression. There is an immediacy and intimacy with painting that digital lacks. I don't believe I will ever leave digital behind, but painting is now part of me as well, so expect to see both being entered into shows and offered for sale down the road.
