I sell a lot of artwork.  These days my print making partners do most of the shipping and customer service for me.  However, I do still paint a significant amount of commission work and originals.  One of the joys I get as an artist is actually “seeing” my work hanging in someone’s home or office.  Not many send me photos, but when they do, I am always taken aback.  Why?  I rarely see my work displayed.  It gets painted on my paint splattered old table and then hung on messy walls until it is fully cured and ready to ship.  I am a creator, so that is what I do.  My collectors are the decorators and as such it is through their camera lens that I get to see my work as they see it for the first time.  It’s kinda cool and strange all at once.  Right there is a piece of my soul hanging in the home of someone I’ve never met.  But I can see it….yes I can.

This arrived in my Etsy inbox this morning.  I did not do anything to their photo other than save it to my computer and upload it here.  So if you’ve ever wondered.  Yes, my colors are that vibrant in real life. 🙂

My F.I.R.S.T…

This is my very first Labor of Love piece that I painted nearly 10 years ago. It’s quite popular as a print, but what most people do not realize is that this is only 1/3 of the painting.  Because the camera I had at the time would only make a small print of the entire piece, I photographed it in sections.  I now offer them as separate prints:  Abstract 1, 2 and 3.

These works are indeed a labor of love for me and I pant them sparingly now by commission only.  The sad truth is I can make a lot more for my time creating simple abstracts that take minutes to finish.  These take many days and weeks to have a final work of art. It is one example of hard work not paying off.  Unless you can sell prints…

I am delighted that the many hours spent making spirals and hand framing each stone in black is finally paying off!  You can enjoy Abstract 1 for a limited time at a very low price!

One of the things I love about abstract art is the that it is incredibly versatile. It looks good in modern, contemporary and even in some traditional spaces.  I originally listed this piece in a horizontal presentation, but decided that I liked it vertically as well.  Seems to have a lot more energy this way and makes me want to party!

What do you see?

I Take One of These Every Day…

If you clicked on my blog expecting the next magical do it all supplement, I am sorry but that isn’t it.  And it’s not a drug, nap or long walk either. It is simply a “leap of faith”.  I swing my legs out of bed and believe they will work properly.  I trust that my hands will be able to paint and that my eyes will be able to see.  I have dealt with a neurological challenge for over 18 years now and some days those simple tasks elude me.  But most days I just have faith and the miracle of a normal day appears.

For me, my artwork is a big part of that leap.  And let me tell you it is a sprinting, all out, do not stop kind of jump!  It isn’t easy putting yourself out there every single day for judgement.  Imagine yourself standing naked in a room filled with hundreds of strangers pointing their fingers and critiquing your body.  It’s a similar feeling when I list a new work.  It’s raw and personal and sometimes you just want to snap it back into your studio where it is safe.

But faith does not keep you safe.  No it’s the trust that keeps you going even when it is dangerous with the “knowing” that you will make it through whatever you must face.

Today I offer you…..”A Leap Of Faith”.
