Just Finished..

"limbo"..this was a private commission where i was told "circus and palm trees" and this is what i came up with! it actually has a deeper personal commentary about animals in the circus, since i have strong feelings about the subject.
acrylic on wood approx 9"x12"

Brief Update..

I went to the opening of the Last Rites Gallery show 2 weeks ago..What an amazing show! Its still up and i Highly recommend it..Getting to see some of the art up close and personal was a real treat and im really amped to paint again..

and i just gotta say this to artists out there who may or may not know..
Guy Aitchison is soooo fucking amazing. i got the chance to talk to him today at the Philadelphia tattoo convention about painting and stuff. wow.see for yourself: HERE . There was a lot of live painting by other awesome ones like Cory Kruger, Jon Clue, Alex Grey, etc...a very long day to say the least. I got to photograph the Enigma (all blue tattooed puzzle piece guy) for my project.. hmmm what else..packed my stuff up for the last day at my job of 6 years...Moving onto a much better custom shop in Greenpoint/Williamsburg area..

So just a quickie update..im sooo tired now..more to come..

getting an early start on my dia de los muertos celebration..making a home made authentic altar, and clay catrinas figures...feeling crafty to say the least. its more or less a little break while i enter the home stretch of my big extravaganza project of 2008, ensuring i dont get burnt out when ill need the energy the most..the next few weeks are going to be ultra hectic, between a possible job move, philly tattoo convention, nyc tattoo convention, 3 more paintings to do, 7 graphic designs due, 1 sticker design due, planning a release party..its chock full of commotion and frustration, but utterly rewarding at the same time. party details and long overdue press release coming soon..
