heres a studio shot from late last week. its been a good day today. working on more small pieces as usual, but putting some layers on some larger work also. i plan on tightening up my mural skills before spring 08, and finishing some of the larger panels i've been storing for too long. just circling my studio putting layers on something while something else dries...

very busy and loving it. just trying to slide under the eviction wire every month, find food, and continue much progress while i still can at this rate. had an interview for a decent job last week, and eventually i'll get one of them and be able to do the things with art that require some money to work with, like making prints, and being able to work slowly on a more in depth series that reflect my drawing abilities. here is some finished work just up on ebay and poised for last second holiday sales...

progress.121107


a new record of eight eyekon characters finished at once. those other ones are stubborn about coming along, but they are almost done. several others are coming along also. sold a couple pieces locally, including a drawing for a good price which is usually a harder sale. i've had to put etsy on hold as my rep on ebay is already built and waiting until after the holidays to build a new rep makes more sense. i had considered a show i was offered for next summer but decided against it. no others planned for 2008, and i'm not sure i really want to show locally for awhile. out of state makes more sense right now and i'm in the process of negotiating that with a couple spots. i like the infamy in my home town, even though i'm under the radar of the "art crowd" for the most part. i've a strong feeling for integrity in what i do, which only grows stronger as i watch people say or do anything publicly to get some sort of show or sale. i don't see how thats an honest approach to making art and being an artist, but hey, let them have it. i go by if i'm enjoying making things or not, and i often sell to folks who are genuine and beautiful people, which makes me feel good. been back at drawing more too, and am trying to make the drawing meet the painting more and more, at which point i feel some magic shows. thanks for stopping by, and i'll see you soon.

progress shots.end of november



been kinda down and out but have a decent amount of work done, and more coming along. plus, i found a lot of wood panels yesterday when people were moving, so i have replentished my supplies just a bit. i had i would imagine around 500 things i could paint on last summer and now have only maybe 100, so finding more was needed. i have started an etsy.com account, but have'nt put work up on it yet. i'll get it linked in the link column as soon as i've got work up over there. i have a number of actual canvases i'll try to paint and get up on there. i just need to get over the current hump and find a way to bail myself out of getting evicted again... this starving artist thing can really rack ones nerves and wear one down... anyways, heres' a couple of progress shots...
