New Art

I just finished this drawing last week. I used Cray-pas, oh yes!, remember those?? Anyways, I started this at about 2AM and ended forcing myself to stop around 4:30AM in order to still function the following day at a reasonable hour. I ended up finishing this about a week later with a couple of short sessions.

I think this looks great. My inspiration for this piece came from listening to one of my favorite bands (tea leaf green). If you have the chance to see them, they are a must see. They are known for their high energy shows with insane improvisational jams.

I call this drawing, "Trevor" inspired by the keyboard player of TLG. This is eco friendly as it was created on recycled cardboard.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers

Inspiration

This morning was one of those mornings; you know the ones I am talking about don't you? The mornings when you wake up and the sun is as bright as it can be... and then it gets just a bit brighter. It started out pink and moved on to a fiery orange. Birds flying around and the sounds are around are all making sense as if they were suppose to be making those sounds. Seagulls relaxing in the lake while I take my first sip of the morning sun. Now that feels good! :)

Today was one of those days. I haven't been snapping too many pictures lately (with the exception of this past weekend. But today I was really in the mood to head down to the lake and take a few before work. I always wish I could have gone down earlier than I had, but I need to rest the eyes when I can.

It was one of those days where you can drop everything and go create! I had to go to work, fortunately I am a Graphic Artist and I can create! :) If you would like to see more of my photos please visit my flickr account.

In other news, I am working on a new web site which I am hoping to have up and running before or just after the new year. I will keep you informed on that.

I just uploaded two new paintings to zazzle.com where you can purchase posters of my (Jerry Garcia) painting and the (Colour of Music I) painting.

Other than that the holiday time has come... Christmas is almost here! I have a surprise I have been working on and they should be ready in time for Xmas.

I have some t-shirts hanging in the Bridgewater Gallery in Bridgewater, MA along with some eco friendly prints and some bookmarks.

If you have the chance are in the area please check Candace's shop out! It's a great place and she's at a new location!!

Cheers!

FRESH LIFE

Fresh whatttt? Oh yeah, Fresh LIFE!!
I found these guys while scouring the internet for some earth friendly Frisbees! After we got to talking about what they do they asked me if I would like to place some art for sale on their site.
So, if you go to their site http://www.freshlifeoutdoorgear.com/, you will find a section devoted to my earth friendly art! RIGHT-ON Fresh LIFE! These guys are great and have some really cool threads. I suggest you check them out and mention my name if you decide to purchase one of their fine USA quality made products! :)

Let me know what you think of some of my art as well! Some of the drawings you have seen here or on my site. But I uploaded a few new ones at FreshLife that I haven't displayed previously.

Other than that I hope everyone enjoys the upcoming Festivies! Thanks for stopping by and seeing what I am up to.

Cheers!

Eco Art

Here is one of the several drawings that I have been working on as of late. These new drawings that I have been working on are drawn on recycled cardboard. I started using cereal boxes, cracker boxes and will be moving on to corrugated cardboard.

With this drawing I used oil pastels which isn't environmental friendly. However, I am planning on using another medium in the future. 

I also have some more drawings on cardboard that I plan on uploading soon!

I hope you enjoy the art and that when you look at this you can't help but smile.

Peace!
