Value/Color System Forms

Ray and I are working madly on this and we are a little behind!  I stopped to take some pictures of the production line and thought they made some nice images.

Inspiration.

I've been working on a series of ceramic containers with figures attached to the surface.  I found this amazing painting hanging in the Saks Fifth Ave. Shoe Dept. in NYC and I am going to let it inspire me for new pieces.  I love this painting and don't know the artist.

Past illustration life!

I used to be an illustrator. I had some great reps in L.A. and New York.  Did a lot of editorial for magazines.  Before I stepped into the freelance world I worked for Doyle Dane Bernbach as their only staff storyboard and comp artist for about 8 Art Directors.  I drew everything you can imagine! Hands down was the best staff position I've ever held!  They treated me like a queen.  Stayed for 4 years and then went freelance.  

One painting process.

Just gives you an idea of how I start some paintings.
