"Chemical Imbalance," Oil on Panel, 2010. The entire time I was painting this I kept thinking it resembled the Kabbalistic "Tree of Life". #chemicalimbalance #crazyology #oilonpanel #davidnormal #dystopic

"Lovechild" digital collage "study" for "Family Planning." Not a primatologist, but I believe this is a Japanese Snow Macaque, the type that are famous for bathing in their very own onsen.

"Madame Crocodile," a faux side show banner, based on a 3D animated character I created and used in my short, "The Bicycle Ride." This banner was for a circus themed party in Point Reyes, CA. #crazyology #sideshow #davidnormal #animalgamation

"Sanaz" Marker sketch of a friend of mine by that name. 2013. This was made on a kind of "marker paper" that pungently outgassed toxic fumes. It's an example of #inhalantart #gluesniffing #markersketch #crazyology #davidnormal #blueskyart #animalgamation

"Lord of Misrule," 2008, Oil on Panel. I had "quit" painting for about 14 years and this was the first piece after resuming the practice. Now I think it has been 5 or 6 years since I was a painter.

"The Human Tree" 2010, Oil Painting on wood panel. There are a lot of "cosmic tree" paintings. It seems to be a niche. However, only mine tells the truth of the cosmic tree cut down.

This is a small pen sketch made in the early 2000s while traveling in SE Asia. Possibly Thailand. Yeah, I know every other tourist was having fun, but I stayed alone on a tiny remote island.

It's raining again, oh no! And I have only one eye! Print on acetate taped to my window. It's not what I would call a good drawing, but I like it anyway, and the original is tiny, but I enlarged it to make silkscreens.

Misperspective!
These are pen and ink on a toned ground highlighted with white ink. These were also printed on silver paper which was a good look for these kind of "mechanoid" misperspective studies. Ah! "Misperspective" is a nice term. #crazyology #inkwash #tonedground #mechanoid #metallic #davidnormal

Fast forward to the relatively recent: "Six of Cups," 2023. This small mural was made for my parents apartment in Washington, DC. They've just moved to SF! It will be installed in their new apartment here. #crazyology #sixofcups #acrylicpainting #smallmural

This is super early work. Maybe painted this when I was 18-19. Experimenting with an expressionist (neo-expressionist?) style that might have made me rich and famous had I stuck with it. Ca. 1989 #crazyology #earlywork #neoexpressionism #davidnormal

Possibly multiple versions of this were made. A repeated cycle of digital collaging, printing, hand-painting, scanning, further manipulation in Photoshop and repeat. #crazyology #collage #acrylicpaint #digitalprinting
