recent photos from the proof of existence along with two oil sketches for the diptych. move into the new space manana!
HALLELUUUJAAAHHA
got myself a new studio space.
life seems to be written in the stars. the new work environment is sure to spark a creative flow within me to help finish off the remainder of the project.
I’ve been painting like a beast and slacking like a turd. Photos of the studio and projects are well over due and i believe the move from home to office is going to kick start the documentation process.
“If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what is within you will destroy you.”
peace to G.C.!

here comes may
went down to laguna today with my best friend and fellow alum artist shay bredimus to pick up the paintings that were showing at the think tank gallery. The show was a success as i sold the only available piece i was showing. Big thanks to Diane for your support!
whats to come? i need to get out of the city. too many vibrations to tune my guitar if you know what im sayin. its time for a painting trip into nature for a much needed refreshing of my soul. catalina island for camping? humbolt? santa cruz? yosemite? im thinking 5 weeks from now.

now what
its been 7 days since the end of the collection portion of “POE”, and i’ve been steadily painting in the studio. i’ve started to write more and more and really need to hold myself accountable for writing on a daily basis. im working on a new schedule and i’ll be posting if all goes well on a daily basis. cheers to daily diligence.

the year of “DO”
eight days and counting. im thinking a bbq the last sunday of the month @ the studio to celebrate the end of year two.
my person of the day yesterday is a friend of mine by the name of Aun Dom, who says “id practice yoga,” when asked what she’d do for an hour a day for a year. she then proceeded to give me a bag full of amazing books to add to my collection. i started reading “yoga sutra,” a sutra or short book or how to manual in the Buddhist tradition. within this text however, is not just talk about physical yoga, but about how one must train their body to then train and master the mind. the book is providing much needed insight to my days of reflection and needless worry.
this is the year for work. for steady pacing. for accomplishment. to take all the ideas had and to write them down. write them down and then DO them. the year of “DO.” i’ve about had it with “do not.”
peace
recent photos of me and me boy
