I have been MIA for a while and it's mainly because things have been picking up for me that I haven't had the time to stop and think, let alone write. Between my part time job, freelance gigs, and several creative projects ... also the added stress of Christmas being around the corner ... I am pooped!
Recently I have been splitting my time between painting and digital work. In December I am participating in a group show called "By The Pound" hosted by the wonderful gang at the GoodFella's Gallery in Toronto. This show not only allows for great exposure for the artists but gives people a chance to purchase great art work at a very reasonable price.
This is the piece that I have been working on for the last month that I'm entering. I have never done anything quite like this before and has certainly proven to be one of the most frustrating. I'm not a "fine artist" so trying to create an image that actually looks like something you recognize is a challenge for me. However I'm nothing if I don't take risks and put myself out there.
I like it a lot... considering that I'm at the one year mark since I started my journey as a painter, and thinking back to the very first painting I did, this is quite a growth.
I'm very proud of myself.
