Selena's Good To Go

All framed and ready to be sent out on monday. Now I can sleep feeling accomplished. Here's a throwback song to help remember the Cumbia Pop queen who's life was cut short.

My Owl

So I posed for a painting recently and the painting is now finished. My friend Gloria Martin is doing a portrait series of people becoming a part of nature or somehow becoming heavily influenced by it. I think this piece look's great and I'm proud to have been able to aid her by being reference and I can't wait to see what else her strange artist mind cooks up for this series. I also have to thank her for upgrading my lenses to something way cooler than I have now.

She's named the piece "Collie's Owl" it's acrylic and oil on masonite. Check out her blog if you'd like to see process shots.

Ink Testing

Hey, I was messing around with some sumi-e ink the other day and I kinda like the results. Ink makes me think differently and is a fun way for me to let go of some of the tightness I'm used to in painting. Had tons of fun doing these little ink drawings/paintings. done on rives
