Trying to let my intuition take the reigns when choosing a spot to paint. Today it led me to a part of the canal trail. It’s nice to get some sun after a handful of rainy days. The color and light was magical, and everyone that walked by seemed to be in happy moods.
Not really sure where to post art, but the art isn’t stopping so here we are. Tres naranjas. Tried to really bring out the color in this one.

I really wanted to paint this spot and have wanted to for years but the moment didn’t feel right. Apparently what my body was waiting for was the perfectly miserably cold and wet weather to stand in for hours.
I’ve painted in the rain before but this time was really hard to bare. The paint wouldn’t stick to the canvas, and the slow constant drizzle had me drenched and shivering.
It’s not terrible but I’ll probably touch things up now that my body isn’t in flight mode.
The things we do for art.
Starting social media basically from scratch feels impossible but if anything has worked for me in the past it’s been persistence.
For those on the fence about deleting meta apps, just do it. You will feel lighter. It’s not easy, but also having more mental energy to invest in places that you want to grow is important.
Like roses, cut, prune and direct energy where you want growth. You have that power. Saving those diseased extended branches that keep slapping you with thorns aren’t worth it. Those places do not care about you at all and the popularity you do get there will eventually turn into golden handcuffs. Not worth it.
Sure, I enjoy painting those epic landscapes and postcard-perfect compositions of beloved monuments and landmarks, but honestly sometimes the most striking things are right under our noses.
One doesn’t have to go far to do a landscape painting. Find the things around you that give you joy and show it through your eyes, it’s a gift to share that with others.
I didn’t have “Have Artwork Stolen and Made Into Paint By Numbers Product” on my bingo card this year, but this is…something. Huge thanks to the person who let me know about it.
Unfortunately I don’t think there’s much I can do about it. I wrote a bad review, and reported them (even though it physically hurt to log back into scAmazon). It’s hard to not just want to throw your hands into the air and give up completely when AI images and theft are running rampant, and the world feels like it’s literally about to end.

I guess the cool (and depressing part) is that the finished product is kind of impressive. Glad it at least brought a few people a little bit of joy.
Be right back, gonna find a dark corner to curl up in.
Here are a couple of gouache paintings I’ve done around town during lunch. The best part of my day.
I’ve been focusing on my comics lately. They are fun, and I’m kind of exhausted from staring at people on Bart. While I think life drawing has improved my art the most, it takes a lot of energy.
To my surprise, people seem to really enjoy them! I’ve had a lot of very kind hearted people take the time to tell me how much they like them, so I hope I can keep making people smile during these rough times (although they aren’t all laughs).

As usual, I’ve been keeping myself pretty busy. I actually haven’t felt all that great, and energy seems to be running low, so I haven’t cranked out any plein air paintings. Also, we are in crunch mode at work, so my brain has been less focused on personal work.
Over Thanksgiving break I was fairly productive! I’ve managed to build a brand spankin’ new website, and also design some business cards and stickers. I’m trying to work on marketing myself; It’s always been one of my biggest weaknesses. Most likely, my efforts will end up swinging back to just amusing close family and friends, and everyone else will get tired of my impulsive and erratic art behavior and leave, but I’m trying, guys, I’m trying.
So here are a handful of comics, as well as some gesture drawings and other work. Also, check out my fancy pants new facebook page. I want to figure out how to do some time lapses! Stay tuned!
Despite all the terrible things going on, there have been some small personal wins. Gotta sprinkle some good in there, right?
Last year I had licensed out this image for use at World Market and was so excited to find it in stores two nights ago. This is my first time doing this sort of thing, but I am happy to have a more affordable ready-to-hang option for fans of my work.
Let me tell you about the painting in case you purchase the print. (Which I hope you’ll consider, as they might return for more!)
It’s originally a smaller piece, I believe 8x10 so the 17x21 format surprised me. It’s one of my all time favorites though, and has a quiet and comforting vibe that would level up a reading nook or office.
The vase was found in a garage sale. I got an armful of these cobalt beauties for a steal! The color just tickles something in my brain, and they’re used quite often in my work.
The vintage books (Poems by Emily Dickinson, and the green is by David Attenborough) are gifts from my brother, as well as the little celadon Korean teacup so this piece has personal significance. My favorite part of the whole piece is the tiny visible swirl at the bottom of the cup, which is often a little signature from potters. It’s not so tiny at this large scale, but I hope it’s appreciated.
And the roses! Home grown, heirloom, just delicious. The luscious petals are painted in thick juicy brushstrokes. Roses are one of my favorite things to paint, so I’ve started growing a few at our home. They’re beautiful but this variety is particularly fleeting, with each bloom only lasting a day or so.
Last but not least is a Santa rose plum from our tree. If you took a bite you’d find a bright crimson interior and be surprised with the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
I paint several times a week but these still lifes sometimes take longer to set up than paint, because I am extremely picky about the placements and the flow of the composition. I hope it shows and that you love this painting too.
MIss youf
I do miss you
all of you
the all of you
you of all
you and all
Hope
Thanks for your understanding while I sort out a tangled nest of emotions.
This is a moment where I feel fortunate to have so many random hobbies. Ceramics, Painting, Running, Dabbling in Piano, and Crocheting are all things that require one to put your phone down, step away from the news, and use both hands to do. While meditation has never been something that comes naturally to me, all of those things quiet my mind and help me find flow. This is my subtle elbow in your side to join in on the fun if you haven’t yet.
This little bird is a recent painting, and is one that I think/hope strikes a chord for those of us clinging onto hope and the last bit of light in a dark space.
