Scary Ass Paintings from the Wrestling Phase

I just sort of... sort of finished this Ric Flair based painting, started a couple of years back. Feel ambivalent about it. Very weird perverse palette, with cadmium red purple and light kings blue. The face is good. I found it hard to make the rest harmonious. Maybe it was never meant to be.





And with similar raw wet on wet pinkness, here is a painting featuring Randy Orton and Chris Benoit, done before the unpleasant end of the latter. I was reluctant to even show this to anyone because of the kind of darkness it brings to mind.





On a more light and lovely note, I posted a myspace blog about the drawings of J.H. Dowd... click the picture for more...

The Minotaur and the Dribbly Storm

Here's one of the paintings I finished in March. (Click to enlarge as always)

It's an oil painting including the Minotaur that I started maybe nearly three years ago. It actually feels good completing 'old' paintings and makes all this feel like an ongoing process rather than a series of frivolous mistakes.
