It's been a long time!

Hello fellow Artists and art collectors!

I have been extremely busy and have forgotten all about myself in the process. My painting took a rest, but I am getting back in action and will be posting here soon! New works and videos :) I purchased a videocam with the scope of filming my brush doing it's magic on the canvas. I CANNOT wait to test the cam on some daily paintings!

2010 is coming to end, and it has been a difficult and challenging year. Disappointments in life become a notch in the soul that either depress you further or they motivate you in ways to push you to resurrect into greatness, even if you don't know it.

I ask my readers one thing. There is nothing worst for an artist, than losing your creative juices and motivation. All of you out there who are suffering, or have personal issues or other...set it aside for one moment, and think about one good thing, just one simple thing. Your favorite color, a favorite food. Something that will crack a smile on your face. An old baseball card, a doll. I am thinking of my scratch-n-sniff stickers I used to collect right now...sigh. It takes just one good thing to set in motion a chain of other good emotions kicking in and before you know it, you will be painting or scultping or taking the best picture of your life.

If you want to get your juices back physically you can go running or you can always take a pillow and stab it to death, that can also work too :) make sure you stick the reference picture of what is frustrating you on the pillow such as your credit card bill, that helps too. Don't stab yourself in the process though or you won't be creating much after you have released your frustrations!

I bid you all good night, and I look forward to future comments on my upcoming works!

Great day to paint outdoors! Windy had a storm
and the sun peeped out again! I would like to do
a few more this summer on a larger scale. Love the
juicy blues, turquiose in the tree which can't be
seen in the pics and the magenta halos around the
clouds, tree, and distant scape in there! Used lots of
paint for this one. Enjoy!!!
