The Way Flys Buzz Around the House

A new blog post. I'm feeling nastalgic today.

I’ve been noticing the way flys buzz around the house Unfinished Cabin by artist Julia Carter ©2017 -the noise they make.  It reminds me of the cabin If I close my eyes, I can go back there, and remember….. The smell of oak trees and the earthy black mud after it rained The horses when they sweat beneath their blankets and saddles and the occasional cow pie -my dad cussing because they shit by…

It is rare in our society and history for so many different people, from so many different walks of life and tribes to come together in solidarity. What better reason than clean water?

I wanted something that would express her vibrancy and love of life. She lives and breathes her experiences deeply and no matter how hard it gets, she always seems to have this live life large and love it all, energy about her. I wanted to capture and share the essence of that. - I did this one for my niece who started dialysis early this week. Prints, t-shirts and even coffee mugs are available. - 100% of the profits will go to my niece to help with medical and living expenses. - See blog post on my website for details. https://wildideas.co/2016/10/04/ahmazing/

Sometimes I come across an image with subject matter so interesting and visually stunning, my fingers itch to try to draw them. That is what happened with this one. The original photo is of the Haitian Voodoo Loa Baron Samedi by Matt Barnes. You can check out his work @mattbarnesphoto or read about this particular shoot here… http://mattbarnesphoto.tumblr.com/post/56958129543/baronsmedi

I don’t know where my fascination started, but I have never left an old bottle laying in the woods. There is a story that goes with them of adventure and mystery, my own and whomever left it in the woods for me to find….even if the story is a silent one. I found this one somewhere in the Southern Utah desert and loved the design of it, the way the label was fading. It sat on my shelf for years begging to be painted until one afternoon, when the light in my backyard was filtering through the leaves of the trees, I decided it was time. https://wildideas.co/prints/

Jeremy Collins is fast becoming my favorite artist.  I found him on Instagram.  There are definitely some amazing perks to social media....like finding this jem.
