title : female conceiving
medium : pen and ink
date : november 2002
description : Female Conceiving is one of my
latest works in which i tried to show time and motion
in a still image. Much of my current work uses this
same technique where i use overlapping and conjoining
images to tell a story. The composition is also something
i've been using quite frequently in which i cut part
of the image off at the end of the page to give the
feeling of a glimpse of what's going on rather than
a whole emphasis on the subject matter.

title : hours of medical transition I (california)
medium : pen and ink, paint pen
size : 11" x 14"
date : 2002
description : After living in southern california
for seven years and then leaving there are quite a
few things that stand out in my mind. One of those
is plastic surgery and the amount of women with fake
breasts. With this piece i've taken the fake breasts
and exaggerated them into these giant things that
are growing and multiplying off of the womans chest.

title : hours of medical transition II (california)
medium : pen and ink, paint pen
size : 11" x 14"
date : 2002
description : Another piece in the california
series. This one depicts a woman getting some form
of facial cosmetics. I tried making her face look
like it was being ripped apart with blood droplets
coming off after seeing a documentary showing what
some of these surgeries look like when performed.

title : man being shot and dying
medium : pen and ink, adobe photoshop
date : september 2002
description : Here's a work that was put
together digitally off of a simple black and white
inked illustration. The concept here is a man getting
shot and then dying. To give a small sense of time
i gave the man three different faces and reactions.
The first being a look of fear(the moment right
before he is shot), the second that of pain(the
moment he feels the bullets tearing through him)
and the third of his final breath before he passes.
Once again, i composed it where part of the image
is cut off to hopefully give the viewer a sense
that they are seeing this as a quick glimpse into
this mans death rather than his whole life. The
red X at the bottom is symbolic of the man being
"X'ed" out of existence/life.

title : man fighting cancer
medium : pen and ink, adobe photoshop
date : september 2002
description : This digitally colored pencil
sketch is a representation of a man fighting a
cancer that's eating it's way through his body.
What i tried to show here was while his body is
degenerating he is still putting up a fight against
it.

title : my oh my! (console convulsion)
medium : pen and ink
date : november 2002
description : This is part of a series
of illustrations in which i had a basic concept
but planned very little in terms of what the
piece would look like. Whatever hit the paper
basically stayed on the paper with little to
no thought of composition or form. What this
piece is showing is one of my friends seeming
obsession with video games at that moment. It's
a shape built of many faces and limbs all trying
to desparately reach for the x button.

title : overweigh elevation I
medium : pen and ink, paint pen
size : 8"x 10", 5" x
9"
date : 2002
description : The first in a series
of illustrations experimenting with the juxtaposition
of multiple frames. I really enjoy how this
piece came out in terms of experimenting with
multiple frames. The artwork is mainly a man
becoming more and more weighed down with grief.

title : unnecessary resting leads
to a bloated individual
medium : pen and ink, paint pen,
inkjet printer
size : 11" x 14"
date : 2002
description :This is a piece I did In collaboration
with Mike
Young - WeWorkForThem. More of
an experimental piece in collaborating our
works than anything. It started
off with Mike giving me a shape to work
with and me going off on that.
