New ideas
I’ve been playing around with some new ideas, and I think I’m liking it. One of the benefits of having this studio and time out in the community at P22 is that I get to practice art. Right? I mean if you want to be good at something, you have to keep practicing, exploring and…

Summer time in the Studio
It’s my first week in my studio since I don’t know when. It’s allowed me to work on a lot of projects that have been pushed to the side or stuck in my head. This week I’ve already made some movement on some large paintings that should have been completed months ago, but I guess…

I’m in
This week has been so busy, but in a good way. I made it to the studio a few times this week and also started a new “job”. It’s not really a full time job, more like an artist gig to get out into the community. I’m now working as an Artist in Residency with…

Studio update
I’m moved into my new studio space over at the Workhouse Art Center in Lorton, Virginia. Of course there is more settling in to do, but I managed to get a bit of work done today. After dropping supplies off all week, it was nice to get busy on my art again. The move went…
