of Shadow, Of Light

When I was a kid, I did art all the time. I loved it. I dunno that I would say I was good at it, necessarily, but I loved it. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I started to do anything with writing and, when I was late in my teens I gave… Continue reading of Shadow, Of Light

The Other Sides

It is pretty clear that there are a few sides to my creativity and writing, while the greatest part, is but one of those sides. Art and Photography, both new arts to me, are now integral parts of who I am. After I did the skull painting I had the notion of a painting of… Continue reading The Other Sides

I can be called many things but an elitist is not one of those things. I grew up a dork, and remain a dork to this day. That is who I am. And having not done art since I was a teenager, I am a self taught artist, so any ego I have about my… Continue reading Art With a "Message"

Stuff I do

This is gonna be a sort of lazy catch all of stuff I have done recently. It is weird to me how much I am painting of late. I think it's due to a feeling that I lack time to really write, which isn't untrue, sorta. But I have been painting a lot. And obviously… Continue reading Stuff I do

Selling Out

Can I tell you how weird it is to sell stuff? Seriously? Especially for me, to sell art. I love painting, I love taking pics, I love drawing, but all of that is secondary to writing. This is all stuff I have said, before. I have drawn since I was a very little boy, the… Continue reading Selling Out

New paintings and tools of the trade

I did a couple paintings over the weekend, and these are them. It is funny 'cause I had ideas for both and neither turned out how I had thought. Hecks, I had to re-do part of Mr. Mouth, but such is the joy of painting. The random pic is one I took for fun. 'Cause… Continue reading New paintings and tools of the trade
