My latest painting is called Image Orgy for the Art Historian. It contains 75 pieces of art history going as far back as 1425. I decided to paint it on a glass frame I rescued from the behind an art store. I started with the black outline on the front of the glass, and then flipped the glass around to paint the paintings.

(painting) Boobscape commission
I was approached one night after work by a friend of mine, Sean. He told me he wanted a painting for his bedroom door. He wanted a Boobscape. So I set off to making him a small one to see if we were on the same page.
He told me it would be facing out into the apartment so he wanted the boobs of the Boobscape to be toned down. I then cut the sheet of paper to the dimensions he gave me and got to work.
After I was Finished I had to cut the Boobscape in half because of the style of his door.
