This is part two in a tribute to a co-worker, Mackenzie. This edition is a re-imagining of the original news content from the April 04, 2009 landmark legal decision to legalize gay marriage in Iowa. I’ve altered elements to reduce confusion with the Des Moines Register newspaper. The file is in a diffusion dither bitmap format, intended for print.

The Dead Moines Rag is not a legal publication and is not intended to be used for anything other than satire.



3 Pieces, 3 Canvas, Molding paste and Acrylic. The color theme is the elements. I’m still missing Air and Earth, and.. if you are a Captain Planet fan—of course Heart.

Zombie Attack Headline

This is a tribute to a co-worker of mine at the Des Moines Register building. The content is based from a scanning I have of the 9/12/01 “Bush Vows To Strike Back” Special Report edition of the Des Moines Register Newspaper. I left some of the smaller text since it correlates anyway


1 Piece, 3 Canvas, Molding paste, Acrylic & a cyan spray paint. This is another kuler color scheme that I’ve manipulated. The splatter approach is a ton of fun. The random landscape materializes naturally and beautifully.


Acrylic, Spray Paint and ink. I’ve have to say I’ve never inked anything before this, and it’s not very forgiving. The ink well and pen did make the execution seem more authentic though.




3 Pieces, 3 Canvas, black Acrylic & a lot of spray “paint”. I say “paint” because the colors are from spray can protective enamel, which is almost as much glue as it is paint. I still have these colors on my feet from painting in the garage barefoot. It literally does not wash off.


1 Piece, 2 Canvas, & more Acrylic than usual. I did not intentionally use NIN as a theme, but I was listening to How to Destroy Angels quite a bit as I worked.

How To Destroy Angels – A Drowning

3 separate pieces, 5 canvas’, 1 can of spray paint, a lot of acrylic and some inspiration from the Des Moines art festival this summer. I wanted to try to take a theme from the Kuler website and make it into an abstract colorscape.
