Hello art friends! Well, I have been hard at work in Studio 8. Spending lots of quality time working on Well Worn Poem, which I am thinking of re-naming Poetry Pants! And, speaking of poetry, check out my poetry page, as I have added three new poems that I have written.

Been very busy on several projects...as usual. One of which is the popular WHBU and Studio 8 interview series. Check out Decembers radio interview!

Poetry Pants update...

As you can see, I now have all of the inking done and (not so easy to see in this picture) also the graphite layer. (click on the picture for more detailed pics) Next step is to spray her down with fixative to seal in my graphite layer and then let the painting begin! I'm excited to start working in the paint layers. Wow...I went through A LOT of ink! I have been running around with black fingers for a while...but I think it is going to wash off eventually. I am still contemplating that white triangle in the middle...hummm, what to do? If anyone has any ideas don't hesitate to jump in! Otherwise, I am going to probably attack it with some paint...I have had some e-mails asking just how big she really is...she is roughly 4x6'.  I have really been giving the easel a work out moving her up and down to work on her. Thank goodness for the high ceilings in my studio! 


I am looking forward to getting ready for tomorrow night's 2nd Friday event. The building is looking very festive with all the Christmas lights and trees and such. Even for an old scrooge like me it looks nice and festive.

As usual, keep the e-mails and comments coming! Until next time...Rock on!
