Chewing Pencils Contest Entry

Matt Glover over at Chewing Pencils has a Christmas Cartoon Contest going on. I figured I would join the fun and get my entry in too. Apparently, Darren Rowse from Problogger and b5media will be the judge.
Cartooning isn’t my specialty but I thought I would give it a shot, so here is my entry into […]

Exploring the Ebay Artists

It’s funny when I go into galleries around town to see that most of the paintings I see are not selling very well. It may be just our local art community, or it could be something that reflects the economics of our particular area. I am in the process of trying to raise […]

A Local Artist - Tessa Warner

Recently, I have began a journey to learn more about local artists right here in my hometown. It’s amazing to me how many there are when you look for them. Today I visited Tessa Warner who teaches Art Classes locally as well as sells her paintings. Before today, I didn’t know Tessa… […]

Art of the Ancients

I am fortunate to have these mounds here in my hometown in Newark, OH. There have been debates and articles about these mounds since I can remember. I’ve played on them as a kid (before they put up the “keep off the mounds” signs) and most of the time I just drive by them without […]

Celtic Music and Art

I tend to like to listen to music when I work on about anything. This includes doing any kind of art. I recently was pointed in the direction of a certain podcast that is usually released about every two weeks. It is entitled simply “The Celtic Music Podcast“.
While listening to Celtic […]

Artists and Cats

Okay, maybe it’s a bias or some other type of thing, but it seems to me that most people who claim the title artist also own cats or are at least animal lovers. Most, not all. Why? Well here are a few reasons.
Cats are individual.
I have two cats. Keena and Elijah. Elijah is two years […]

Art Montage

I was looking at Stock Exchange today for some images for this Sunday’s presentation for the worship service. I was just amazed at some of the photographers and artists who upload stuff there and allow it to be used for free. This is a great resource for any blogger or graphic artist. From slideshows to […]

Man in a Craft Shop

I’ve been going around to local craft and art shops lately, seeing what is there and getting the standard look from craft shop people. You know that look that says “Ummm… Best Buy is two streets over!” or the one that says “Quick, hide the cash, that guy looks suspicious!”. I’m the guy with the […]

Body Art - Prepost ideas

Here in the next day or two I’m going to hit some of the many tattoo shops in the area. This is a very different type of art that is often overlooked by those in the art field. Part medicine, part art, part subculture… I’m sure that this is going to be […]
