I finished this old timey weight-lifting toad about a month ago, and just got around to posting it. I especially like how his flab is sticking out from under the belt!
I completed a mural several months ago for Jay and Rose Deutsch, owners of the Leica Gallery(a photography gallery in New York.) It was fun to do and everyone was pleased with the results. The phrase in latin says “Quod Cupio Mecum Est” which translated means “What I want, I already have.”

Sorry for the long delay in posting! It has been a busy Winter, plus I am moving to the Lower Upper East Side. The good news is that Robot will be in a works on paper show at DFN Gallery this February 3rd.
It look like it will be a good show! See a preview here.
I have been super busy lately with no time to post! I am working on the design for a mini mural for a clients apartment. More soon!

Here is a quick shot Mr. Toad decorating his house!
