New Painting for the White Sunset project. It's a sunset as seen through a mesquite tree with a quail in it.

This is 7 minutes and 9 seconds of snow from VT for my friends who live in the desert. I'll be watching this when the temperatures get into the triple digits (Fahrenheit)

9th Street Studios is going to be open again this year for Art Detour.

Here a map of how to find us:

I'm Super excited because I just found out that Penelope Umbrico will be one of the visiting artists that I'll have a chance to meet - she's replacing Siobhan Liddell who sadly can't make it. Check out her work: http://www.penelopeumbrico.net/

My finger isn't healing very quickly so I've been busy planning an homage to Newton and Kepler. It might be incorporated into the Goodness project just as the Sunsets might. More on that later...

This is what was up in my studio. I'm working on a new white sunset painting right now, but it's taking longer than I wanted because I have a broken finger on my dominant hand.
tree parts + wind + city trash bin that doesn't like to stay open = broken finger

I've been asked to participate in "Wonderland: Art from New Times Best of Phoenix 2009"
and what a fun project it was! Thank you New Times!

I'm participating in the MonOrhid Arts Fete.

I have 2 sketches that are for sale from my sunset experiment series. These are from experiment #3. I'll be posting photos of these to the gallery section of the website shortly.

Come enjoy a night of arts and fun with some local artists!

This reminds me of the video the art teacher showed in Ghost World. "Mirror, Father, Mirror"

Check out a review of the show here.

Here are some photos from the opening:
