This is one of my favorite paintings! It brings up the question what if
God was a women…If she was, I feel she would be the most stylish of all and
making walking on water very high fashion!!! The wine in the painting was based
on a bottle of wine gifted to me from a famous Grammy winning song-writing
friend of mine. I saved it for over 8yrs looking for the right occasion. The
right occasion happened to be a dinner with my beautiful wife to be!
I was asked around very late 2008 or early 2009 I
believe to do a quick pass on a face for Jack Frost for the DWA film Rise
of the Guardians, by the original director.
They wanted me to combine some of the awesome ideas done by some of the other
talented vis dev artist and distill a take of an angst emo teen! I only worked
on the movie for about 2 weeks. I was kinda thinking of peter pan and a
splash of a teen idol! Was definitely in a more stylized place back then.
