To the left of my desk.

All the images in the picture are my woks with the exception of the brown toned oil painting in the top left corner which is a gnarly piece by my friend/fantastic painter, Michael Ryan. Check his stuff out. http://www.michaelryanart.com/

Sketchbook.

My desk on Thanksgiving.

I promptly grabbed the lit candle in the background and tilted it to myself to light it thinking it was unlit, only to spill wax across my latest work. I think it adds a little something nice to the piece however.

Colored Ink is Great.

Breakfast.

This is a painting entitled "Breakfast" I did a while back. The piece was done using the mixed media process I had developed in my college days. I met a very lovely couple from Ireland who were kind enough to purchase the piece from me. The woman told me that they were going to put the painting over their small two person table in their kitchen where they ate breakfast together everyday.

-12" x 12" deep body stretcher bar, canvas, mixed media, (2005)

Recognize this guy?

If you look a little bit, you will notice that I drew a set of curved teeth where the neck is now represented and drawn over. That was my initial reaction relating to composition, but decided those proportions were too predictable so I drew a pair of lips and a nose. From there I decided the dude just plain old needed a mask. So I put one on him. I later modified this piece digitally for a coloring book project with Super Dudes Justin Gray and Peter Wonsowski. I miss those two guys a lot.

Piece for a friend...

Just finished this piece last night for a friend of mine. I did another piece a couple of years ago that is up in my house (same process) that this friend wanted. I did not want to part with it for sentimental reasons so I used the same process and look to create this one. 14.25" x 7.5" scratched plywood with spray paint and acrylic.

In progress...

This is my most recent personal in progress piece. It is from an old sketch I rediscovered and decided to turn into a finished piece digitally. It is temporarily on hold for another project right now, but it will be the first thing I get back into when I am done with my current work. You should see this thing full size.

Some Available Works (More on the way!!!)

So I am trying to plan a trip east with my good friend and could use a couple extra bucks. Anybody want some art??? All pieces shown are part of a series I did in 2006 for a group show in San Francisco. The images shown are all mixed media on 5.25 x 8.25 inch Moleskine pages. All works are currently unframed and as a result are only $40.00. Anyone interested in purchasing art can contact me directly at rhgannon1@gmail.com. Please include the number of the piece you are interested in purchasing in the email. Thanks for swinging by!
