Blown Away
What do I think of other artists’ work? I love it! I love it better than my own work, if I am honest. Mostly, I prefer representational work, although some abstract blows me away, too. What I really like is work similar to my own, only better. Frustration hits, though, when something in the non-art,…

Hello Darkness and All the Rest of my Friends
Well the story goes like this. I’ve been having a string of sleepless nights, and then, I realized one night it was dark. I hadn’t been really conscious of it, but with the thinning of the veil, the approach of Halloween, or Samhain as I observe, it really sank in. The darkness. So, this is…

W.I.P. it Good!
While I was in the aforementioned quandary, I decided it would be best to do something, anything at wall, even a failure than nothing. So, I decided to do the red on green, entitled, for the time being “First Fall Tree” I did this: I took one more picture et voila! So, Spooky Tree! If…

I Should Explain….
Here’s the latest: “Fireflies in July If that looks familiar to you, and maybe it doesn’t, I’ll explain anyway. It may remind you of this: That’s because I’m drawing something very familiar to me, which is the porches in this condo complex….so, you see, there’s a good reason for this repetition. Not a particularly interesting…

I’m Speechless!
No, not really, I just thought it would be a good title. This is my latest, and if you look closely, you’ll see a bird and a couple of squirrels. One thing I discovered is that just drawing leaves turns out to be boring to both the artist and the viewer. I’m pretty happy with…

Conventional Wisdom
Sorry, I meant to post on Tuesday, as a routine day. This Tuesday, I was unable to get to it. But here it is Wednesday, better late than never! Speaking of conventional wisdom, for artists at least. The question so many artists ask is, what sells the best? Everyone, (you know that everyone) says to…
