Insomnia

I worked late last night and didn’t get home till 3am. Seeing that sleep was not in my near future, I decided to grab a canvas and see where a few brushstrokes would take me.

My mother had visited earlier yesterday and we spoke about my art. I asked her “if I painted you something, what would you like?” to which she replied “something with calm colors.” All of my work has alot of color in it, but the pieces themselves are somewhat crazy and trippy, so I decided to try using calm colors. I chose blue but had mixed it with white to give a light, calming blue much like a pretty, sunny sky has.

I started stroking the blue abstractly to see what my mind could eventually make of the strokes and somehow, THIS is what I saw. Obviously, the idea of creating something calm didn’t stick lol…

Untitled for now

The 2 foot by 4 foot canvas has been sitting in the corner hopelessly begging me to give it life. I have never painted a canvas larger than my usual 2’ by 3’s so I wanted to cover it with something amazing.

Inspired by an artist I met over the weekend by the name of Thad Morgan, I wanted to try something new. Thad gave me some advice that I was eager to put into action… Something along the lines of “let it flow, whatever comes just let it happen” …he had told me that this is how he approaches his work after I had explained that I have been being too much of a perfectionist with my art.

With no plan of what the finished product what come out to be, I just put my brush to the canvas and started laying down strokes.

I’m curious to know what you see when you look at this piece… Send me what you think.

L O L

This piece has an interesting story behind it. I was promised a job from a woman who claimed to be a lawyer for Halliburton. She had purchased a painting from me and from there promised a job with great pay and amazing benefits. After a month of putting up with excuse after excuse of why the job was not falling through, I decided to tell her to fuck off and that I would rather suffer something terrible than to work with her.

Once the “professional business relationship” had ended she asked that I do a piece for her symbolizing her broken heart over the divorce she was going through. She wanted it to be painful and promised a much needed $350 for the piece. I saw that she was in grief and wanted a painting that symbolized the pain she felt… little did I know the picture captured her personality.

As I was almost finished, I texted her to inform her that her painting was almost complete to which she replied “leave me alone”. Confused and rightfully pissed, I inquired as to why she would ask me to do a painting and then flake out on the purchase like dandruff on a dry scalp. The only reply I got was, once again, “leave me alone”.

I hadn’t painted the faces until after the realization she was really NOT going to hold up to her end of the deal.

The thick spiral lines are like the lies that came in waves leading down a path to no better end. The broken heart showing the feeling of being promised great things only to be lied to and let down. The faces find it amusing to see such negativity.

Los and Found

My art is no stranger to being displayed, nor is it giving up hope on being discovered.

Facebook was the first stepping stone into the art world by getting my art known and making people aware of my talent. It led to getting me a spot in the Greenroom downtown for an art walk in April. I had only been painting for 6 months and already I had my work being hung up and diplayed. It was surreal, and it was definitely a confidence booster that pumped me up to continue painting and try to make something greater with my new found talent.

Since then I’ve sold quite a few pieces through Facebook, displayed my art at Bootlegger’s downtown for another art walk, and currently have some work displayed in the window of a new restaurant downtown called Tossed.

It’s quite the blessing to have been given this talent and making something of it rather than wasting it away with idle hands.

I thank God for the talent and I thank all of you for the support.

I recently started dating a BEAUTIFUL girl named Paige who has no experience in painting. I had a bottle of wine, plenty of paint, and a blank canvas —- the perfect ingredients for not only a great night, but also to jump start her step into the art world.

She was was too nervous to paint and didn’t know where to start. I selected a couple colors, grabbed a brush myself, and told her we were gonna do it together. I grabbed her hand and put the brush to the canvas and slowly showed her a smooth wavy brushstroke. We continued doing the same strokes. After a while, I started seeing a woman’s figure starting to take shape so we accented it more. I picked a few other colors and started painting a male figure holding her hand.

In the painting I see a man taking the hand of his woman and leading the way into a world of their own where they create what they want… where anything is possible… neither of them looking back, just as the way I took Paige’s hand and showed her a new world of art.

We got lost in it that night.
