I was recently asked to partner with Scott Trent of the Henderson Art Project to create a 2D work for the traditionally 3D event. The final piece "Breathe–Swirling Eddie XXIV" was created for the 2011 event. I myself have benefited greatly from learning how different artists think and create. I think I have blogged in the past about my love of the PBS series Art21 and the documentary Painters Painting where we get to look at art through those creating it. With that in mind I decided to document my recent work for the Henderson Art Project so that I could exercise my blog muscle. The Swirling Eddies series is a series of paintings I have been working on for many years. I really enjoy this series because it encompasses all that I love about painting. Since this piece of work for the Henderson Art Project will be displayed outdoors for many months it needs to be made of something that can withstand the ever changing weather in Texas. Therefore, the substrate for this painting
So I've been meaning to update my blog for a long time. My old blog just wasn't easy to post with so I just quit blogging. So yesterday I attend this months Guild meeting and Jeb Matulich is presenting "Blogging for the Artist". I saw lots of different blog tools and thought I would just pick one and try and see how easy it would be to create a blog and post on it. Well what you see here is the beginning of my new blog. It is definitely a work in progress but so far I am loving Blogger. A big THANK YOU to Jeb for inspiring me to get off my butt an continue to blog.
