Lunch break bush

Here's a drawing I created at lunch today. I was sitting outside and I felt like drawing. I call this "two bushes". It's a quick little sketch that I hope you enjoy.

It's hot outside but it wasn't too bad just sitting and creating. Anyway, back to work!
Cheers.

Visually Impaired

If you haven't seen my series Visually Impaired... where have you been? I'm justing kidding, I started this series this past dec. 2011 and I have placed it on hold as I had a few other projects I was working on. As the year has gone on, I am starting to add to the series and the series is now up to 13 pieces.

Here is a link to the above image, my eleventh photo of the series: Visually Impaired 11.

Here is a link to the above image, my twelfth photo of the series: Visually Impaired 12. I hope you enjoy this series and I would love to hear your thoughts. Cheers!

3/52- El Rhino

Here is the newest drawing for my 1 a week project week 3 of 52: El Rhino. I am planning on going back into this with watercolors, however, I like the way the Black and White drawings looks. I love drawing with ink and find that color can be a distraction. However, I do love color and feel like it adds so much to drawings. Enjoy Cheers!

Happpy Holidays!

Although were not quite there yet, I thought I would post my holiday card incase I forget!!! :)

So here it is, quick N dirty!

Happy holidays!

Cheers!!

It's heeerrrrrrrrrre!

Well there is no way to hide it anymore.... Winter is Here! Although I didn't take any pictures today (I really wanted to) I figured I would post a photo from this past January.

This image of White Oak Pond, was taking in Holderness, NH on Route 25. Pictures coming soon from the sketchbook project!!!

Enjoy :)

Go Pats!

Cheers!

What a day!

Well after 6 hours of hell on the rain roads of NH and VT I made to Burlington, VT to hang my artwork in the Daily Planet Restaurant. When I rolled into Burlington the clouds were looming about, however, the rain had not started yet and I was thankful for that.
The installation went smooth and I was in and out in about an hour. Please check out the images I have uploaded of the Daily Planet.

I also got some good pizza at Manhattan Pizza in Burlington. Not bad for a $2 slice. Good beer selection too! Check um out if you get the chance. I would have eaten at the daily planet but they didn't open till 3:30 or 4. When I go to pick up my art in a month I am going to hit up the brew up in town.

Whelp, it's winter and that means hibernation! I will be creating more art when I can and spending time with my love and finishing my sketchbook for the Sketchbook project! The book is due in Feb. and I plan on uploading images from that when I have the time to scan them in.

Take care and have a good holiday!

Cheers!

Hello Summer?

Hello? Summer? Are you there?... Yes you are!! Well not really but it has been feeling like it! WOOOOO!!

It's good to be out in the sun and enjoying life! Updated:
I have been taking a lot more pictures lately and I have been taking some great shots too. Here are a few I have taken recently: You can find more of my Photography here.

In other news, I haven't had time for blogging because I have been busy. I am almost done with the commission paintings I have been working on. The trouble is-as it usually is- I have to wait for paint to dry!! And being as it has been quite warm, it takes longer than usual even with a fan on it.
I am design a new t-shirt for a contest for the band Assembly of Dust. Great music and if you are a risk taker and like to listen to new music take a listen! You won't be disappointed.
I also just finished framing about 4 photos and an oil pastel drawing(which takes time cutting Matte and messing it up and cutting it again (just kidding about the messing up part).
They look great and I am going to try and hang them in a few shops around town. Wish me luck.

Well that's it for now. I need to get back to work. Enjoy the long weekend! It's suppose to be a beautiful one!! Goodbye winter! :)

Cheers!

Photography

Well, I haven't been scanning in any work as of late, but I have been taking pictures while waiting for my paintings to dry. Check out some more of my photography here.

Once I get back to scanning my work I will be sure to upload it. That's all I got for now. I haven't been sleeping much so I am going to try to get on that now.

Cheers!

The Weekend....

... was GREAT!! :)

The Bruins evened the series with the Sabers 1 all and it came down to the wire. The g/f and I went on a nice adventure into the beautiful town of Sandwich, NH. I wish I had my camera because the sights were amazing!! Lately we have been getting some crazy weather - I suppose we all have - it has been snowy, rainy and raw. Not too much fun to be outside in, however, it makes for great picture taking.

We were driving along on Saturday and we saw some snow scattered about amongst some fairly long blades of grass that were brilliant-almost neon- Green that just popped with the White snow around it and the dark Blue lake and Gray overcast sky in the background. There were tons of opportunities to stop and take pics....

... Thankfully, I am getting my camera back this weekend.

I also worked on my two commissions this weekend for about 4 1/2 hours! I just started working on the second painting while waiting for the first to dry and it is coming along nicely! I do love using oil paints as I can take an hour off and go back into the painting and it's still wet. As the commissions are a surprise I won't reveal too much information. Once they are completed and shipped out, I will upload the finish product. :)

Until then enjoy , "The Grateful Bruins" icon I have attached above. The Bruins are playing to night and are tied 1-1 going into the 3rd period.... GO BRUINS!!

Cheers!
