Man of Action
Mr. Potter Esquire. He runs Potter Esquire Clothing in New York. He asked me to do a portrait when he saw the Interesting People Paintings in 2010. A consummate promoter, boxer, musician and businessman yet down to earth. I really enjoyed working on this one.

Chris
I have seen the written definition of Generation Y. I am also related to the extreme version of that definition. I tried to capture it in this painting of my brother. This was painting number two of the first iteration of Interesting People that showed in 2010.

Richard
Richard loves guitar. He is really good too. I like to play a bit, but when your around a real master you realize just how much you have to learn.

Jack
Jack has a little of the devil in him. He really likes to tell jokes and get people riled up, all the while playing the innocent. I was trying to get that across in just the smirk.

Brian
Brian. Loves to fish. That’s all I’m going to tell you.
Zen Clown
I thought that I could design my website to be all chaotic. Turned out to be a failure. But at least I got this cool illustration out of it. At least I think it’s cool. If your afraid of clowns you won’t think it’s cool. Especially this clown. He is all magical or something. Does he represent my silly sarcastic nature or my wannabe zen character or just that I tend to juggle so much stuff that it feels like my world is turning upside down.
Yes it was intentional that he be sideways. Part of the magic.

Nick Of Time
I did this painting in the Nick of Time. So it’s got sort of two meanings for me. I was getting disinterested in art in general, I sort of came to a wall. Like all good creatives I kept trying to get over the wall using my sketchbook, painting in different mediums, and modeling in 3D. Then Adobe finally put transparency in Illustrator and I was looking at the lasso masking techniques used in photoshop by the Computer Graphic geniuses.
I realized I could do the same thing as them in Illustrator. So I tried it on an old sketch. 6 Hours later this is what I had.
