Well I've been woking at Mick's on the peacock. And spending some time at home on the family portrait. I think I learned a couple things from my commission works I felt I needed to put into practice. So I think were where we need to be on the family thing but the peacock is still giving me troubles. But I'm sure I get her into shape its just a question of time.
Well today was the final touches to the other portrait commission. Now its all down to smashing out the peacock. Its always a chalange to re-do a piece but I'm confident that she will work out to everyone satisfaction.
Well my last run of business cards were professional but didn't include a painting or my blog website so this run I'm trying to design a bunch of potential possibilities. Let me know what you guys think. Which card hold the most promise?
Well I worked a little bit more on my Beatles piece. Not many would notice the difference but I'm more proud of her now.
Well I've been working on reworking one of my older pieces. She is still a little cartoony but I think I happier with her.
Well I tried to contrast her up a bit. But basically I think the classic look worked the best. I just tweaked her So that hopefully she fits more with the collection.
Well I'm liking the coffee exchange brick backdrop. it really sets of the paintings. 7 are up at the exchange if you get a chance come out and check them out.
Well subject matter I have always followed what captivated me. But I'm opening it up to other people. To take a poll Which do you enjoy more the animals (cats, apes, frogs, wolfs,elephants, ,bears, horses or other,) , the people, sculptures, aquatics (under water), music icons, or art nouveau.
What would you prefer to see?
Well I've talked to the owner of the exchange and were back in business. So I have revised the dates as well as a better set up of the design thanks to some help from phil.
Well today was finishing up confidence, overall I'm very happy with her. Not sure the trifecta of three images emoting confidence is successful but we live we learn.
Well were finally done the tiger. I decided to go with a more blank background to focus you attention on the eyes of the mother and the pup. I think we can say I'm happy with the results.
Well I decided to do another Hendrix sketch. I like her sense of definition of the focals.
Well I have been working on some miniature mucha's were not completely happy with all of them but were getting closer.
Well pretty much much finished work on primary instinct as well as another sketch (Julia Robert's), not bad weekend.
Well I stated working on the geisha. Didn't get too far until phil suggested I she is content as she is. I also did a little work on the Beatles but I'm going to take her home and pay some steady attention to building her up.
Well I tried to work on working on some of phil's suggestions. I think she is credible but sometimes you have to let her go and Not overwork her. She is in a pleasant place and I think I can comfortably say she is done.
Thanks goes out to karen Payton-evans for writing a stellar article featuring me and my art.

Well I think I have achieved some kind of happiness. She may not be perfect but. I think she is a win.
Well today was the last day for scarlet. I like how she turned out. I'm not always a fan of the subtractive method but who knows everything has its place, and she is defiantly quicker. So pros and cons in either.
