Winter's End


Winter has come to an end, hopefully, and I was just downloading some pics from my camera last night and found this gem from Feb.!!! Wow, I need to get on the ball. I took this in MA when I went to my lil brother's BBall game.
Great day for shootin', as we had just got hit with about 5" of snow. Which was soon gone hours later.
Well I have some things brewing and projects to be finished. I will be posting shortly!
Cheers!

Here we go again!

Okay, I am not good about posting routinely; however, I will do my best! I have been extremely busy at the day job and I haven't had much time to post as I have been creating new art and updating the site.
This weekend I am workin' in the studio and getting a ton of work done. Listening to music and possibly a few pints of my favorite! Right now I am listening to Ronan Quinn. If you haven't heard him he is a great Irish musician and I highly recommend taking a listen.
In other news, I am Moon Art Design is on Facebook!! Check it out and add me to you list!

I am planning on posting some new art on Monday, so check back then!

have a great weekend. Cheers!!

PS- This time last year, I was in Ireland drinkin' my first pint on the Emerald Isle. Rugby 6 nations today! Go Ireland!!

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

Custom Painting


I just put the finishing touches to a custom job I started toward the end of last year and I just dropped it off in RI this weekend. I think it came out great and Natalia was very happy!!! She wanted (as you can see) a Pink Elephant and a palm tree. At first I was having some difficulty working with these requirements as I don't have any personal connection to elephants or palm trees. Eventually I had a break through and this is what I produced.
I am extremely happy with the finished painting.

Well, it was a long weekend full of a lot of driving. I am heading to bed...wicked early... I know!

Cheers!

Slow Start

It's been slow going as far as posting here for 2010. I have been utilizing my time and really trying to wrap up the rest of my web site which I am now hoping to have LIVE by the end of January.
Life gets in the way of projects sometimes and I am okay with that. I wouldn't have it any other way.
I am heading to GA next week for 4 days! Should be great. I am heading down to see my brother graduate from Ranger School. The kid is a BAD ASS. But as an older brother I can still put him down! :)

I will be bringing the camera and taking pics as he will be tending to the break down of Ranger school and preparing for graduation ceremonies. My mom and I will be exploring when we are not with him. Should be a blast!

If I don't post that much the rest of the month you know why.... I AM BUSY!!! :)

I will be back.

Cheers!

GOOD-MORNING....


Good-MORNING 2010!!!!
Yesterday I woke up and after seeing this I knew it was going to be a good year! Screw the Hedge Hog or Ground Funds...wait... stop...reverse those. Who cares if he sees his shadow or not or if the economy comes back or continues to dip down again... We are alive and we should appreciate that while we can.
Now clearly I don't mean I want the economy to start tanking again. I want the jobless to find jobs and I want to hold my current one.
All I am saying is, you can find a little bit of good in everything if you look hard enough. Maybe there is a silver lining to this recession. Maybe the silver lining is... "People shouldn't live outside their own means". Don't spend what you don't have and don't try to be like everyone else.
Maybe that's too much for a Friday morning, but I felt obligedto comment.
Good luck to everyone in 2010! I hope it's a good start to a great decade!
Cheers!
