“The Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian” Now that the work arrived at its new home I can share it now. Thank you, my friends for trusting me to make it. Oilgraph on wooden panel // 12x24 -Private Commission- With Nolan McSparran as Sebastian. You were pitch perfect, my friend. Created with all traditional materials. Original image photographed on Ilford 400 with a Mamiya 645 and processed in Agfa Rodinal. Print made in the darkroom. The rest was...just what I do. My collectors wanted this to be small and intimate but I felt it deserved a full size version so there is another interpretation coming. #oilgraph #mixedmedia #saintsebastian #traditionalart #artistsoninstagram #artoftheday #biblical https://www.instagram.com/p/CmCsbfaS6A5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
THE DESTRUCTION OF SHECHEM From the series “In the TIme of the Judges” // Mixed media oilgraph on wooden panel // 33x33 As the story goes, the evil character Abimelek rose to power after murdering all seventy of his brothers in a single day. As time past the people of Shechem rose against him and then he and his murderous thugs burnt the city to the ground salting the earth behind them. This is one of his men. I haven’t done new work in this series for quite some time but this is one that has been calling me ever since we shot it. Costume was custom made and we lit the torches for the shot. The actor is my friend TJ and was the perfect badass for this part. #mixedmedia #war #bookofjudges #fire #oilpaintings #oilgraph #biblical #artoftheday #artofinstagram #kevinrolly #kevissimo https://www.instagram.com/p/ClSFaluvs2i/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Mixed Media oilgraph with acrylic, graphite and gunpowder on wooden panel // 10x12 From the new series ‘The Spirit of Ukraine’ Being over half Ukrainian and Russian I take the war in Ukraine personally. In this continuing series I hope to capture the both the strength and vulnerability of the Ukrainian people. The textures were created by igniting gunpowder on the surface of the panel and burning into the print itself. It’s an uncontrollable process and the explosion chooses its own direction. Just like war itself.

Base image photographed with a Mamiya 645 on Delta 400 and processed in Rodinal. All images printed traditionally in the darkroom. No Photoshop.
Shot in the beginning of March. Before everything happened. This one flowed like some do when they want to be born. Rarely do I know how the final work will look but this one I did. It was insistent on being here.
