STATIK KINETIC character 080408
11" x 16" acrylic, aerosol, and enamel on found wood panel. been making art all day, everyday, and nearly starving for it. making progress seems to come at a high price. no responses to job applications, no drinking or socializing. no trouble with the law at least. lots of blackbook drawing too, developing the statik kinetic characters more and just the general style that is statik kineticsm. trying to buy enough time so i can take longer on some stuff and get to those "masterpieces" as they say. keep having people buy my art for next to nothing on ebay and then re-sell it as if i don't know in this age of google. these are the never-ending dues to making art and chasing a dream. suffering and lonliness. mental illness and alchoholism. days into nights without hearing my name spoken. on the reading list: finished hemingways' "true at first light" a few days ago, then read a copy of steinbecks' "the red pony" i got for .50 cents at a garage sale and am now engrossed in hesses' "the steppenwolf" same price same garage sale. at least uptown mpls is good for something even if it is just an occassional garage sale or good dumpster dive. been burning through many different materials too. canvas, masonite, cardstock, paper, ink, markers, spraypaint, enamel, acrylic, oil, graphite. shipped stuff off to australia, france, germany and many us states this week. got some more overseas shipping to do soon too. bad market here, you export it... anyways, back to the net grind.
