Now, I love animated movies and I love animals so in January when I caught a glimpse of a dancing Penguin I marked it on my calendar as date night with my wife. (She loves the same kinds of movies by the way.)
I came away from this movie thinking “I didn’t know you could do […]

Dan from over at Empty Easel emailed me last night (or early this morning) to share the launch of Empty Easel. I thought this was a great blog and looks to be a great daily read. Thanks Dan.

If you are anything like me, which I pity you if you are, then going without your laptop is a pain. Then you get paranoid asking questions like “what if they lose it?” or “what if it comes back more broken than it was to begin with?”

I don’t take compliments very well. I think it’s the fact that I’m a perfectionist. If someone tells me that they like something I’ve painted, I blow it off and point out all the flaws. Maybe I just need to learn to shut my mouth and not say anything.

Past projects, photographs and archives (and all dusty stuff) can really come in handy for developing new ideas and dealing with that Artist Block. Artist Block is like Writers block, but for artists…
I get it quite often. Though writers block is fairly easy for me to conquer, there is something about a new sheet of […]

Subtitled “A scribbling of thoughts about Art“
There have been artist down through the centuries who could be classified as “starving artists”. They painted as the primary way of making money and supporting their habit of painting or sculpting. Today these days are long past. Today we have fast food employment.

I recently was digging around the web for artists and articles that caught my eye, and I thought this one was pretty cool. Tomorrow, I think I will try this technique with something around here. Apparently, the man who made the video just walked around the pyramids and took a picture every ten […]
