I try not to do this kind of thing too much, but I have recently re-launched my personal blog with a new focus.
deCloned: creativity for life - utilizing your imagination in day to day living.
In writing here at Artist Hideout, I’ve found that my interests are more broad than just tackling art and creating art. […]
Many Artists usually battle any kind of organizing types of responsibilities. I know I am like this. Piles of papers can at times line the edges of my desk and a more than elaborate network of chores and todos can be posted in non-linear fashion within my mind at any one time. However, I have […]
Awhile back I got some good feedback on an post I did about creating a logo for your blog.
But I failed to mention color schemes in the process.
I have found the following to be a pretty good standard for colors. If the colors appear together in nature, then they will work visually for […]
Here’s what I would try (to do more of anyway).
Sculpting.
Sculpting is messy work.
There is a reason I shy away from sculpting. It’s expensive, it’s really time consuming, it takes up a lot of space and well…. it’s messy.

I’ve been thinking about this for some time. And well, tonight finally decided to do it.
After reading probably at least half of the 91 reviews of the Intuos3 Wacom pen tablet and seeing the amazing amount of great feedback that this product is generating, I am taking the plunge.
With the average feedback being […]
Most of my work has always been abstract Expression since last October when I began Artist Hideout, and while I enjoy it, I felt there might be something lacking. I’ve been thinking a lot about how technology has and continues to impact the art world and how to express that.
So my most recent painting, (and […]
Lately, it’s been my custom to take images of my artwork via my camera phone. It’s economical, it easily transfers to my computer for web viewing and it’s really, really horrible image quality.
So, I have contracted out this little task to a great friend of mine who I help him with his blog on occasion, […]
Occasionally, I run across a site that is yet unlaunched but promises to be a great little endeavor in the future. Here is an ad from one that I think will be a great opportunity to be a part of.

Okay, so I learned a lesson with Acrylics and Masking tape on my cubic abstract project.
They don’t work well together.
Maybe if I had rolled paint onto the canvas this would have worked, but I used a brush.
The paint migrated underneath the tape causing weird runs.
Not really what I was intending here.
