Between the world of men and transcendent divinity there exists art. Art is the will to truth made physically manifest. It is more real then Reality. It is a dialogue triumphant over Time. – Andre Malraux

Love Worth Dying For


This is the first illustration in an elemental couple set titled Love Worth Dying For. Depicted here are the elements Fire and Water.  As the male fire elemental leans in for a passionate kiss from the female water elemental they begin to dissipate where they touch.  Next in the series will be Earth & Wind.






Here is the work in progress:

Nick and Paulina

This illustration was another tribute to one of my early influences,  the artist Patrick Nagel.  It also was the first time I drew one in a large scale format.  I loved the challenge of seeing the world through Patrick's eyes and his style helped me to better understand both composition and anatomy.

This portrait is of two of my favorite models in the 80's and 90's, Nick Constantino and Paulina Porizkova.
