Pulled Pork - final (third) painting in the Pig series

...the final comp in the series (see the other 2 piglets here). 

...this painting will feature logos of those replacing the pig - Kroger, Bi-Lo/Winn Dixie, Harris Teeter (and i just came across a rumor that Whole Foods from Texas is looking into Hilton Head SC).

Happy Holidays 2013

we've traded the Seattle grey-on-grey passive-aggressive drizzle 47 degree holiday season for a sunny 72 in Savannah (though ornaments in palm trees and near 80% humidity require some getting used to)...

...well y'all, have a joyous and safe holiday season!

Here's a great concept - Iron Man VS Resident Evil.

my first attempt at Iron Man - kinda went old-school Marvel on the outfit - going along with the this_franchise_versus_that_franchise movie craze of the early 2000s...and, i think the red and green has a nice holiday touch...

Pulled Pork - second painting in the Pig series

...and here's piglet #2 (see the first one here).

i ended up sticking with just the Georgia state flag, as we'll be living in Savannah soon...

...unfortunately, i won't be starting these until after the move (all my supplies are packed, and the movers charge by the pound!)...

Pulled Pork - in memory of Piggly Wiggly

Fret not, Piggly Wiggly is here to stay - however, 37 stores, from Charleston to Savannah are heading for the chopping block this week (full story here)...

...now, to me (currently in transit from Seattle to Savannah), Piggly Wiggly was as much part of the Southern landscape as boiled peanut roadside stands, cheer-wine delivery trucks and kudzu encased barns (Google it).


I'm working on a three part tribute series - 3 large (at least 4 foot) square wooden canvas paintings, honoring "the Pig"...

...here's a digital concept of the first one in the series.

Alas, one piglet was spared the sausage stuffer; store #101, Coligny Plaza,17 Lagoon Rd
, Hilton Head, SC 29928 (though, still an hour's drive from Savannah).
