Today’s plein air in downtown Liberty, MO! Feeling warmed up after yesterday’s paintings so I’m hopeful for this one.

#LastFourWatched 1. ACAB 2. Sometimes we all take uncomfortable play for pay gigs. 3. Growing up in 1980’s Kansas City I didn’t anticipate a movie set in Taipei to make me feel nostalgic. But then out of nowhere here comes Frank White and Steve Balboni. 4. What an experience this film is.

2. Coup de Torchon (1981)
2. Carnival of Souls (1962)
3. Taipei Story (1985)
4. Army of Shadows (1969)

GI Joe vol 4 by Joshua Williamson, Andrea Makes Lana and Tom Reilly What I’m enjoying with the Energon line is that every book has Main Character Energy. They’re all happening alongside one another but none feel secondary to another.

Here’s the second painting. Didn’t quite come together but I had fun with the colors. Looking forward to tomorrow!

Mazywood by Tananarive Due Gosh, this was fantastic. A family curse as a metaphor for both generational trauma and neurodivergence, classic Hollywood, Black horror, it’s got it all.

Here’s my first outing. We had three hours for this location. I wish I’d ruled it out instead of freehanding the columns, but I’m very happy with the overall celebration of light.

Doing some plein air painting the next couple of days. A lovely way to spend some time.

Every October I move this haunted doll around the house before my wife wakes up to give her a little scare. The 2026 cursed month has begun.

Coup de Torchon (1981) I didn’t know this was an adaptation of Pop. 1280, the first Jim Thompson book I ever read was. This resets it in 1930’s French West Africa, which works brilliantly. Also, dig that Sean Phillips cover!

More fine-tuning, mostly on Hangman’s jacket and pants. It’s coming together!

Now that they’re out in the wild, here’s the fun celebration of wrestling face paint I did for this month’s Pro Wrestling Crate. Fun one. To my knowledge this is also the first time I’ve painted Blue Meanie!

There’s a guy somewhere who was in the room when this was named who still occasionally mutters, “Should’ve gone with Easy Cheesy…”

Building up some definition on Hangman’s figure. You can see how those primer colors are playing into what I’m building on top of them, here.
