Wednesday, May 30, 2012 Relief painting process.

Learned this process from my Grandfather who liked to experiment with left over drywall he used to build his house with.  Not sure where he learned it or if he just came upon it playing around?

Step 1: Take paper off lighter side of the panel using water and a sponge gently wipe away.  Be careful not over wet and cause holes in the plaster....

Thursday, May 24, 2012 Artist Article I found Interesting!

LEAVE NO REGRETS  Do your best work, and always make the work you love.  Because if it doesn’t sell, it’s going to be in your studio looking at you for a long, long time.

“BUT I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS!!”  I found that most relationships that started out rocky, stayed rocky.  People show you who they are, day in and day out.  Believe them.  Nice people don’t “become” annoying over time.  They’re just annoying, self-serving or jealous people you’ve made excuses for, for way way too long.  It’s good business to be pleasant and even-handed with everyone you meet.  But if someone shows you they are not trustworthy, or they constantly put their interests ahead of yours at the tiniest opportunity, then take care.  Do not give them the keys to your house, and do not rely on them for your good reputation.  If someone makes you laugh, fine—enjoy their company occasionally.  But if they are not trustworthy, do not put them in positions of trust and expect them to suddenly be someone they’re not.

Wednesday, May 16, 2012 Today's Study

As an Artist it is inportant to put ideas down on paper as soon as you think of them for future painting's.  Of course by the time I get started painting there is alway's more added or taken away from the idea.
