THE WAIT is OVER! blog #37 (2months later)

                     Blog 37
       Tuesday, September 29th

Its been around 2 months since i've done one of my weekly Tuesday Art Blogs.

HERES WHY-
For the last 5 years or so I've been experiencing constant pain
in my arms/neck thats been slowly disabling me/infringing on my mindset…
         I'm sharing this footnote for perspective as to why i haven't been able to post anything for the last few months.

I'm hoping/planning to start consistently blog'ing again!

Below- a Photo from my session with Mary WilkinsKelly and her daughter a a few weeks ago
                                                              (assisting with all that profesh' photo stuff)
Below is a Toothbrush/Bic pen sculpture of mine from my youth
(probably from my teens)

 Below-last week i got down to it and finished up some Urban Fabric Fragments
                for my mom Diane Ericson to take to her 'Design Outside The Lines' Retreat in Taos NM
           where i was blessed to be able to teach a lesson either last year or the one before.

 Frankie-
                           Below-'Frankie' by miles 72415
 Below a photo from my ex's house
 Below's another envelope..this technique always leaves epic invitations to surrealism…
below and on the left i see a defined head of a guy with eyes closed…and on the right, i see a horse turned looking at the viewer.

Below- left over sticker paper is never wasted:)
Post-it technique + the String Print technique:)
 Below- piece using the union jack giving 3-d visual information that reminds me of the piece created when making string prints.

 The Next works are by my friend 'The Planet Jupiter' aka Joseph Hamilton,  pictured below left
 Artist viewing Art.
Below…The Art

 Everything's A Masterpiece!


Below- a smaller mixed media piece on paper, about-5'ish"x12"ish


 Above, about 1.5ft x 4ft'ish on wood
 Nothing like a blog day visit to my Dear Friend and Master Artist.
 Above. loose canvas

 above…the shape of the paint in the middle piece caught my attention when i saw it from an angle.
 I'm always so inspired by such a root spread of art swung through a handful of decades, echoing any and all inculcations, overlaps, coincidences and miracles in a life shown with energy, emotion and depiction…intuiting the nothing and the all


 Above is about 5ft by 5ft un-stretched canvas.


Almost ALL art featured is for sale
please feel free to contact The planet Jupiter for inquires or acquisitions via Facebook link below,
he is a kind, and wise soul.

with Cass's camera phone in a plastic bag during an erie storm:)

I like to use the camera as a tool to create 'abstract paintings'

mixing my very present inspiration's of Basquiat and local friend Jean-Marie Harrison 
(apologies if i've misspelled anyones name:)
