Yelm Earth

My friends own a large farm and sell worm castings and many organic farm products. I was asked to make up some signs for Rainier High School. The farm and a few other businesses contributed garden boxes etc. Yelm Earth donated Deluxe Garden Blend Soil.
Thanks Kelan!
Thanks Hunt!

Awakening Center


This is a 7' diameter sign on plywood. I hand painted some of it such as the clouds and the symbols. A bit of airbrush here and there too. The lettering was done with a paint mask with the help of my trusty computer.

Port Green Farm

A friend asked me to make this for her and her husbands horse ranch. The property has a really great view of Mount Rainier so it had to be included. The finished product is in sign paint.

Airbrush Flame

This panel was achieved by using many layers of water base automotive airbrush paints in 4 colors to get the look I wanted.

Faux Painting


I had some spare time so I asked some friends that owned a local coffee shop if I could do a cool painting just for laughs and giggles and they said sure. They sold the store while I was doing this. The new owners were pleased with my progress so I finished it. It is over 6' tall and the stairs go down to the valley below. I really liked doing this. A couple years later I stopped by to say hi and was stunnned to see it had been painted over! Win some, loose some!  A lady watching me took this photo with an instant polaroid camera. Here are a couple shots during the job and then completed.

Dragonfly

This here is a rough sketch in pencil drawing on an old coffee table.
The top version is finished. I removed the legs from the coffee table and it now hangs on my wall.
