It’s Monday.
I’ve got no particular plans.
The neighbor is mowing his lawn in earnest.
I realize that my own yard needs some attention.
It isn’t going to get it today.
I will let the rains give it some love.
The dogs are looking up at me.
Eager eyes and lolling tongues.
Balls have been thrown.
Morning yummies supplied.
A half finished painting.
Sits on my studio table.
Packages are ready to go out.
It isn’t looking good for either of those.
Needy things.
I think I will just go with the flow.
Today.
I’ve got no particular plans…

Black Magic! I have really enjoyed creating my Black Magic pieces for many years and recently I discovered a cool way to make them even cooler. I digitally inverted them so that the black in the magic is now white. They look totally different this way and the effects have been very popular. These are now in homes all over the world. Black and White is so clean and neutral. These would look good in just about any space. Enjoy an old favorite in a new way!

This piece was discovered while I was creating a colorful abstract painting. I say “discovered” because often when I create, I simply apply the medium and and the work reveals itself. Michelangelo said it best: I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. I will wash, blow and splatter everything away from the painting until I find it. “Dark Swan” appeared to me and really spoke to my soul. It is dark, but there is lightness there also. Just like the soul…..

I have really been working hard lately. I am not sure why but I have more creative energy than I have ever had. So I will leave you with another Michelangelo quote which best describes what I do each day: If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.

I’ve got some “Black Magic” up my sleeves…..no spells to cast though. These original art paintings have been one of my most popular styles in the last 10 years. I love creating them but abhor photographing them. The camera never captures their beauty. They have a 3D look to them…like smoke….the camera sees too much in color blocks and the fine details are lost. I have considered retiring these 3 times, but I always come back to them because I enjoy painting them so much and my collectors gobble them up. The economical pricing sure helps too! I’ve got some new ones coming….

There is something very musical in the way I paint. The fluidity feels a lot like dancing. In fact, sometimes I do dance while I work. I always have music playing and this piece is a pure reflection of me…my art….The Dancer:
