Beetail. Haha, get it? More bees, more flowers. Or more drawings from the Isle of Shoals.

Orchid
2017. Pen & ink and watercolor on 22" x 24" paper. I wanted to see what would happen if I made the image bleed to the edges (came from this sketchbook drawing). The colors started out pretty tame and got more wild and intense as I progressed. I kept thinking it wasn't working out so I tried pushing up the saturation levels until it suddenly all came together. More like this...

Shitheal Roger Ailes
I drew this disgusting shitheel for Michael Hambouz's annual artist collaboration, "Faces of Death." From his web site:
An annual, non-profitting collaborative artist project, paying tribute to fallen heroes and icons.
The Faces of Death idea was originally realized in 1997 in my friend Milton Carter and his pals' music 'zine Gank, and continued in 2002 on a t-shirt printed in Milton's kitchen. Each annual edition of F.O.D. pays homage to cultural icons that have passed during the calendar year, with each drawing rendered by a different wonderfully talented friend/friend-of-friends, in styles ranging from painterly to primitive.
In 2013, Milton passed the F.O.D. torch on to me. As I would prefer not to profit in the name of lives passed, this project is non-profitting. All sales made help to recoup cost of materials and production.

Bee Pollen Humper
2”x24” - “Bee 🐝 Pollen Humper” - 2017 pen & ink on paper. I was going to watercolor this but I got a shitty batch of Fabriano Artistico (Hot Press Bright White 140# watercolor) paper and the sizing is fucked. It won’t accept watercolor or any water media without bleeding all over the place. I’m going to have to switch brands of paper and after 25 years of using Fabriano almost exclusively I’m very sad. Arches - you’re on deck.
