Have a heart ❤️

I've been traveling all summer and had not been able to make any art. Here is my first painting in a while. A little bit of art therapy.

Today's art journal entry... 3-25-17

I had a wonderful time creating this commision for a Kansas City Personalities wall mural installed in a downtown KC apartment building. The wall measures roughly 12’ x 20’. These were all hand drawn graphite and charcoal drawings that I scanned into my mac and delivered digitally. The file was then enlarged and applied to the wall surface.

I'm trying to learn Clip Studio Paint and so far, it's a dream. Sure I (still) can't do everything I do with Photoshop, but it's more affordable, great to use, has a wonderful communities of artists and did I mention affordable? I'm happy with the works I do with CSP... When I don't forgot to draw on a bigger canvas than 10x10 cm -_- bad artist.

Pages from my art journal

Archeology museum sort of. Albuquerque. Watercolor and ink on paper that no artist should use for watercolor. Looking for sketchbook that is good for ink and watercolor???

Camden, Maine. Getting back into making personal art after working on a huge commission these past few months.

Ballpoint pen & ink on a 1707 Scottish legal document.

This is the cover I have just completed on my new art journal. It is a recycled book, a dictionary of antique furniture design.

This feels like it could be a fun kids activity page. When I started this doodle it was just the hill with the tunnel maze and a few things added in the maze area. It didn’t feel like it was going anywhere, but as I kept adding things I started to get into it and now I’m happy that I didn’t ditch it. It’s always fun when a piece surprises me. It never gets old.

As a break from my traditional art pursuits, I took on this project for a customer. It was such a fun challenge. I do like to stretch my boundaries.

The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart

A Valentine's day card I did for my girlfriend made up of eyes hearts and ewe skulls. Nothing says love like a load of ewe skulls!!!

Part 3 of my China sketchbook from last summer.

New Year Shopping (办年货 bàn nián huò) the Chinese believe that buying new items in the new year symbolises welcoming new things and getting ready for a new start. The traditional shopping list includes meat, vegetables, fruits, candies and nuts are popular items which are later seen on the dinning or coffee table of every Chinese household during the Lunar New Year
