Ana

The new painting I was working on!

Ana 20"x 14.5" is a haunting painting of my sister woah!

Fountain

This is the called "fountain" and it represents creativity and playfulness. It's also done on furniture. 28.5"x 11.5"

Me!

Woo hoo!!!! I'm starting to post the nice-well-defined pictures of my childhood series one by one in my blog. This piece is entitled "Me" and it's 28.5"x 11.5". Obviously this is a type of self portrait and it's painted on furniture because I wanted to keep it cozy and familiar.

Sorry about the Non Existence

I have been working really hard at just staying afloat while life happens but I promise to post weekly starting today. I hope I didn't disappoint anybody and I'm sorry if anyone thought I quit I definitely haven't and am excited to show you all the new work I've been working on.

More Paintings.

I haven't been able to enter any adventurous and artistic mazes lately but I did however work on these pieces above. Only the santa claus had guy is finished. The other I'm still working on and I intend to dig deeper on my next pieces. Visually I'm experimenting with interpretation and play of shapes. It's so weird how little or how much space has to do with the overall meaning of a face.

At the end of the Childhood road.

Great News! I was featured in an online interview of sorts at 716fineart.org. You guys should totally check out the interview as well as the website of these wisconsin-based art hunters. And the blog got mentioned too so it's like we are all famous :)

Below is my newest piece from Childhood (the series). In this I painted the fountain character with a very heavy painterly feel and focused on vibrant rich colors that I premixed and layered on top of the surface. The surface consists of two shelves; one gray and one white, and it give a a nice minimalist background. This piece is coming along well I might sandpaper some parts of it down where the matte medium clumped but other than that it'll be this weird monochromatic piece. If you look closely there's some ebony pencil which give movement to the painterly strokes.

And below here I have the piece I was working on since last posting. It is pretty much done except I want to experiment a little bit with glazing and making colors a little more vibrant. It'll change just a tad bit and it'll be a little more colorful but the gist of it will remain the same. Just like the one above and the live painting I used ebony pencil on this one too. I fell in love with the carbon charcoal look again :)
