GLITTER!!

So I decided that glitter was absolutely necessary in my paintings -- all of the childish beauty and sparkliness. I first used it in the portrait of Tisa and James lightly in the background -- then realized that it would be perfect on the portrait of Victor -- with all of his 'over the topness.'

I'm really really excited about playing with this new medium :D

yay to Charlie and Hilary joining

We want more action here and more work to look at -- unfinished and finished. Hilary -- I didn't have an email for Matt, but please invite him-- you can do that through settings.

Art Show! What! What!

Come check out this show, it should be pretty cool. Lot's of artists, drinks, music and screen printing going on! My good friend Kim Edmiston and I are both in the show, so come for us if nothing else.

Hope to see you there!

Richard Serra with Bride and Groom...

Here are a couple of shots I did with my clients Noelle and Jon just before their reception. The sun was setting and I saw the sculpture and thought it might be fun to wander inside. The light was insane and created a glow like I have never seen. The rusty quality of the sculpture created texture and color that inspires me still.

This will not be my last encounter with this piece. Thank you for your beautiful creation Richard Serra.

here's the portrait I've been doing and a new painting behind it. I clearly need to focus and force myself to spend more time working.... self imposed deadlines maybe :)

Happy almost thanksgiving and I hope everyone is well
