Henna BBQ

So I did this gig in the middle of Missouri yesterday. I really had fun. It was totally NOT like deliverance! :P

Everyone were really nice, good people.

Here are some pics:

Voila!

Damn it! my comments are gone!!! :((

Painting is hard...

So I whipped out my paints last night at a painting session and did this. It was a lot of fun but I think I'm still searching for my own way of making marks. A lot of my strokes were tentative. I just need to do more and more and more :))

By the way, this was done in oils...

work...no, fun.

What I did last night. I was doing some exploration. :))

New work

So I just got back from Koken. We had a group drawing / painting session. I did some exploration with Sumi ink on Yupo paper. It's such a strange texture but does some really interesting things. I still had time to so a pastel painting of the model. I also gave her one of the drawings.

Let me know what you think, and please click a few starts if you like it.

New Show coming up...fast

So I'm part of a show that's coming up fast. The submission deadline is this Friday. I have to submit 3 large paintings, 3 by 4 feet and I've just started today! hahaha.

Leave it to me to work under pressure.

Should I show the progress of the work or just show the final product?

Tuscany here we go

So a friend of mine commissioned me to do a painting of a Tuscan landscape sunset with red flowers.

It's done and will be delivered tomorrow, yay!

Here it is, what do you think? I did it for $200. Not bad heh? So, who's next??? lol

More henna today...

So I did a little more henna today at MoKaBes coffee across the park.

Let me know what you think...At least rate it.

I feel so good...

I don't know why. Maybe it's because Spring is finally here. I also feel like I'm at a crossroad, come to think of it, aren't we always at a crossroad? lol.

I'm meeting a lot of people and it's great to be in different circles. I can't believe how much I was limiting myself.

I also want to go to Guadeloupe this Summer but I don't know if I'll have the money. If I keep selling art tho, I'll be able to buy my ticket. Yay! hehehe.

I went to this party last night and I have a lot of fun...

Fall today

The start of a new series

So this is my new stuff. Although this is a commissioned piece it gives you a hit of the direction I've taken.

Texture, texture, texture.

I'm planning on having at least 3 times as much texture as this one.

This is a close up of the middle pannel.

This one sold in Paris

So a friend of mine brought this painting in Paris with her and sold it. Yeah!!!
I need the $ or should I say €€€ because I get paid in Euros :)
I wish the photo could show you the true colors of the painting... It doesn't do it justice.
I need a new digital camera. Mine is shot (get it? ha, ha, ha). The one I really want is the Canon powershot A630. I love it!
Can you buy it for me? Pleeeease.
It's on my wish list from Amazon.
