First Things First

January 5, 2012

It is a new year. Heck. What are we going to do now? Oh yeah, keep going forward.

With that in mind I am trying to do a lot of painting. I took a little down time in December to agonize over gifts to buy and Christmas cheer. Now I am trying to paint everyday and also get a lot of work out on the streets. I am putting things on old signs and street poles and abandoned buildings. I figure if the windows are boarded up the boards should at least be decorated. Ain’t nothing wrong with pretty!

Yesterday I was on a ladder hanging a folk art cross on a tree. A long white bearded homeless man was watching me. I imagined him walking up and saying, ” Son, that was me thirty years ago.” He didn’t really speak to me. I hung the art on the tree and went back to my truck.

Here are some photos of a few of the paintings I have put out in the last week.

2 things to note.

1. Look for my new goals for 2012 soon.

2. I am compliling a list of shows and art festivals to be in for 2012. If you know any you think I should be a part of send me a note here.

3. I will be updating my art shop in the next week so keep checking back. Thee things take a lot of work you see…
