It's like every cover of Twilight Zone Magazine collected in one man's art.

The older work seems to be photoshopped nudes, competently painted using classical techniques, but the result isn't terribly exciting. He does seem to be heading in a more interesting direction with the new work- possibly he's become more comfortable with digital image manipulation.
Or he could be parallelling Louis Wain but with naked people instead of kitties.

Nobody told him that you go to Yale for graduate school, not undergrad. Oh well.

I call foul, wittgenstein - what was it about these nude-meets-MS 'pipes' screensaver paintings that caught your eye? They are not bad, but they don't speak to me.

I don't really know, appleseed. I picked up the latest issue of New American Paintings and there they were. I kind of hoped someone here might know more about him than I did. The magazine says very little about him.

Then again, I might be the only one who had blotter for lunch.
