I was lying in bed tonight and was thinking about new canvases for an art show I'll be doing in May....I came up with a theme and a Titke, Man Oh Man will be the name of the show and the theme will be centered around paintings of the male form. I'm going to start sketching now, in my underwear I might add as coffee is brewing. This to me is one of the benefits of working at home, instant gratification of an idea!




Here is the start of Real Life, a 48x60 painting that is halfway there, I did most of it today while doing laundry. Note to self, never take out clothes from the dryer with wet painted hands, anyway...more on the premise of that soon. On to the idea!

Downsizing, reorganizing,,,things for March. I have hung 15 canvases, some come complete, others that will be finished soon.

I sold a painting this weekend at Artisans Collective.

I'm Possible was one of the first big pieces I painted when I got back to Dallas. A 48x60 painting

This is a pic of the painting as it dried in my home last year.



Over 70 layers. The piece became a challenge, starting as Impossible, because painting something this big was more than a challenge, it was a bitch, falling into the canvas. Falling as I turned the canvas around. As I got closer to turning the corner on this piece, I saw the potential in new paintings and new techniques.

I hung in m home for 2 months before saying hello to the public and now it's found a new home. I couldn't be happier.

As an artist I paint so I can share. As I make piles this month, I make room for the next stage, the next chapter.

If you're going to start sometime, why not now

Over 600 performers, 6 hours of entertaining and we all raised $17,000 for relief in Haiti
