I am just not getting very far on this






 I really think I need to stop working on this and work on something new.

 I believe I put constraints on myself by making my outline so dark (it was the only pencil around at the moment) and I believe it is starting to bore me.

Will play with some charcoals or pastels later I think.

Polychromos and turpentine are killing me




I bought a set of polychromos pencils I love them but this method is quite tedious and the constant layering is hurting my wrist. I would quit but I like the way it looks. But this is such a SLOW process, I may have to start something else so I can get break. Time to break out the pastel chalks.

Moved for an Artistic boost!

Damn this art block - I decided to give it a good swift kick in the ass and I moved to a city with a very high art community.  So here I am in Atlanta!  I got everything set up and ready to work and I will tonight!!  I found a job and it keeps me pretty tired but I need to get to work on my art because I am not me with out art in my life!!  There is art everywhere here!  Beautiful paintings on the sides of buildings its amazing and art museums and so much stuff and so little time - I must make time!!!!!!!

Got a little something done todaytoday


The light in here is truly horrible for taking pictures of artwork so my guess is its probably horrible for doing artwork!

Momentary Distraction...... Truth ..... Under the Guise of Times

Under the Guise of Times

part 1

Minds full of war and strife
Battle lines of the mind tangled
Anger and rage - lifes dreams abandoned

Leave and left behind all of life
Heart and soul ruined, left and strangled
To survive, all and everything unhanded

Time- evil monster I'm no longer your wife
Your evil twisted my mind - Horrors entangled
All of what was my life gone - left stranded

part 2

Like a Phoenix risen from the ashes longing for life
Avoided questions and answers from the foolish masses
Comfort only seems to come in random glimpses

Who am I now? memories of self only cause tears
Mind twisted bruised lasting scars
Don't know myself, lost myself, lost the moon and stars

For that I have shame
Shame shame shame - shame on you
Shame - you have no shame
