New painting in the works

I liked the still life-ness of the “oldest trick” piece I did. I’m trying to get a new 12x12” piece done for this group show at a gallery I really want to be in.

I did this study all...

Hangin

Went to hang the show today. Didn’t get the best pictures. I don’t really like hanging shows. I’m not good at it. I’ll just put everything wherever it fits and whatever. So I had my friends...

Study of Reynard and a urinal

I started this as a study before I did the other two pieces for the trickster show. So I did another pass on it while I was waiting for varnish to dry.

All 3 pieces are ready and tomorrow I�...

I accidentally killed a spider. I prefer to catch and release spiders. Especially with all this tri...

Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in

So I finished all that photography stuff yesterday, started varnishing "oldest trick," then I went to start editing the photos of the "cave shenanigans" piece.

I scanned this one about a we...

Getting ready for the show

Trying to get a good picture of this one. I hate taking pictures. I had to watch YouTube tutorials about aperature, shutter speed, iso and all that.

Then I just spent all day adjusting all th...

That feeling when you know you’re about to stay up to finish a painting

Just about done. Really just needs a signature. I like to save that part though.

Pancake day

It’s hard to photograph this piece because it’s dark and glossy. I don’t know how I’m actually going to photograph it for prints and stuff. But I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it. 2024-05-30 03:55:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Here’s what I spent most of today looking at.
