Stream of Consciousness drawings...from the past 30 days in Philly

Depending upon response, I may have a number of these drawings, namely the black and white line-drawings, made into prints (silkscreen) to offer for sale on a new Etsy account.  In any case, this group illustrates the direction my studio practice has been moving since the last series of panels I posted in July.  More to come in the next couple of weeks.

New collaborative drawings by Max Doyle and Jackie Maloney

My buddy Max and I have been playing with little black pens for a couple of weeks now in my sketchbook, co-authoring drawings and poetry that seems to come from some kind of secret garden in our subconscious.  The four drawings below relate thematically, each prompted by the idea of a Highly Evolved Female Tuning Pretty Hard into the Cosmos.  Though, the fourth drawing made apparent the possibility of a whole new direction (it's a different animal from the others, no?)

Heady Duck Momma

Our Lady of Road Harvests to Come

Madame ?

Mycelial Madonna

If the response to these is promising, we plan to have silkscreens made for sale.  Holler if you dig 'em!

Preparing to hit the road...and start a new series!

Hello!  It's looking like two weeks at most before I board Loki the Space Bus with a bunch of musicians, visual artists, writers, a carpenter, career travelers, and chefs from The Fuhrl Arts Collective and our extended network. 


Our mission statement for the trip is on the wordpress site we update...click on the second link above to access that.  


 I will, in addition to helping to document the trip visually and in writing, be working on a series of paintings/collages inspired by the passing landscapes and the experiences I have on this wild trip.  They will be on a series of wooden panels, so they should travel well and hang on a wall quite easily, and in the sizes of 4"x4"x2", 5"x5"x1", and 6"x6"x1".  The two most recent posts on this blog are comparable to the way I'll be working, though on the road there is bound to be more collage than paint.

If any of you would like to reserve a piece from this series, let me know!  I think it would be interesting to be able to send these pieces from the locations that inspired them to you via post, and I need to purchase the materials (paint, panels, and matte medium) before the trip, so I am using a model a good artist friend of mine came up with for her trips to Italy. She accepts checks in advance to fund the materials and time spent making art abroad, and returns with the finished work and delivers them to her sponsors. I should be returning just before the holiday season, so all artwork will be sent from our various adventures around this country, at latest, just prior to mid-December.

The prices of the work are standardized, based on material cost, postage, and the time I know works of this size generally take to complete.  

4x4x2....50$

5x5x1....65$

6x6x1....80$
