I just painted for a whole 10 minutes on my lunch break....that's about all the painting that I've had time for as of late. Oh well I guess every little bit counts.

I had a painting win a purchase award at the Greenville Arts Council! I'm humbled and flattered! It'll be in the permanent collection at E.E. Bass Cultural Arts Center. The painting is going to a good home.

Atari painting

The world has been conspiring against me to not get any painting done! If I'm lucky I have about two hours to paint at night from 8:30-10:30pm. But lately, we've had so many numerous projects going on, I've been just totally wiped out. But I have had time to work on one painting in particular. The blogger Pacalin was gracious enough to send me some Atari gear to paint. So I've been working on an Atari painting. It looks much different from what I'm used to doing. But I like that! Hopefully I'll have it finished up here in about a week or two. I might even try and make prints of it.

Ready for Take Off

This was a painting I did back in 2010. My friend Michael let me borrow a ton of Star Wars figures. He had the figure and ship...so I set it down on the carpet in the living room in front of the door and got a good shot of it with the light coming in. The geeks will be quick to notice that I put a B-Wing pilot in the cockpit of a Y-Wing fighter....haha. Ooops. Maybe they were running a skeleton crew that day and somebody had to cover somebody else's shift.

I am commandeering this blog. Haven't posted in over a year. I used to post just Art history related stuff. I'll still do that somewhat. Now I want to focus more on my art. I hope that's cool?

many moons

I haven't posted on here in forever! Should I use this blog for my artwork?
