Installed Work
You dont always get to see what your work looks like in someones home. Today I installed two pieces Alison and I did for a home in Mainville. They were custom work done specifically for each space. I think they turned out great!

Good News!
Yesterday we got confirmation from the Fine Arts Funds, that Sayler Park has been given $2K to do a centennial mural!
This is exciting because, not only did Alison write the grant, I am probably going to be the one painting it. I already have so many ideas about what to do.
I also had an interview yesterday at Artworks to work on one of their Mural works projects.
If or when;) I get hired to do that, it will be a big daddy mural. Ill leave you all the link to check them out.

WIP and Alison on the gong show?
Here is a new WIP Im working on. It has a long way to go.
This is also a picture of Alison at Britanys Birthday party. She was the official “Gonger” in case things got out of hand. They did indeed!

Keep em comin!
Yet another abstract. I need to start selling these things, know anyone?! 
The glare is really bad on this one. I guess I have to many windows in my house. That’s why you need to come over for dinner and see it in real life!

book art
here are some images from an altered book i made a few years ago. i’ve been wanting to make them into paintings for a while, and am planning to start very soon! i’m excited!
altered books are a great way to free up your mind and are a ‘low pressure’ way to experiment with subject matter, texture and media.
with this piece, i did a lot of cutting and abrading of the surface. i taped several pages of the book together and then cut into them with an exacto knife. then i painted them, rubbed graphite, charcoal, pastell over them and made a wonderful mess! lots of fun!
i’m hoping that i’ll be able to mimmick these same effects when i turn it into a painting:)
phase 2 of the word art
here’s the 2nd phase of the painting with greek, hindi, japanese and arabic.
the title is “A Beautiful, Calm Dream”.
