My Tom

So my boy is having a stomach problem and we are hanging out at the vet. Pray to your demons he is going to be fine.

The meet up

We now have two kittens to add to our family of Alec, Mon the dog and me.

The two baby cats are not yet friends. Time will fix that.

My boy Miles.
little Mochi
Mon the weiner dog

Mon loves everyone. Mochi and Miles are at war.

noises and hissing

Mochi loves Mon.

In the myst of all these things i have been painting but not close to as much as I would love to. So I have to find my focus again and be the best I can.

Truth be told, I’m running on empty. I found so much in making sure everyone is ok that I stopped “mind painting.” I have spent so much of my time making a gallery of unmade paintings inside my head most of my life and now ..little bits jump out. Maybe my style wants to evolve again? I don’t know how it will or could but it is a beast that does whatever it wants.
My big hope is to reach my madness again before I crack.

Next time Galeras,

Jaws

Texture is life

Bring the colors

feels like they are alive in the moonlight. The best part of all the creating is the creamy waves the paint leaves on the canvas in the beginnings.

Paint is power and motion. Blowing and breaking all things and time in creamy gorgeous pigments.

it all starts out clear and then flexes into love. a small army of paints from Arteza.

Small thoughts wonder into painting like “do artist get sponsored by paint brands? I’ll have to ask around.

The things are all rolling right and I must keep moving forward. I love that silly podcast and some of you do also. So I make it for us.

Being mindful

It’s so easy with everything up in the air to forget to be kind. Not in a you have no manners but in a go out of your way to do something nice for yourself and other people. some times the journey is to just get to kind moments. It’s the journey not the destination to focus on. You will get there when you get there.

Always something beautiful in a blink

I think I’m chasing a moment of peace and madness in my work. It’s that chance you get in making where the world melts and your focus is 1000%. It’s almost impossible but it’s the heart beat of my creative process.

Rest is for the plain and plain is not sexy.
