I've been painting a lot lately..
These are some shots of the egg crates I use to rinse my brushes in.
They might be nicer than the actual paintings. hmmm.

The Last of the Oatmeal Days..


It's cold here today, at least by April in Florida standards.
Right now, this very minute it feels like it's 64 degrees.

Thats unheard of this time of year!!

If thats not inspiration enough to paint, I don't know what is.

Updates to 365 happened over the weekend. More later today.

Lovely Lies...

LIES I'VE TOLD MY 3 YEAR OLD RECENTLY by Raul Gutierrez
  • Trees talk to each other at night.
  • All fish are named either Lorna or Jack.
  • Before your eyeballs fall out from watching too much TV, they get very loose.
  • Tiny bears live in drain pipes.
  • If you are very very quiet you can hear the clouds rub against the sky.
  • The moon and the sun had a fight a long time ago.
  • Everyone knows at least one secret language.
  • When nobody is looking, I can fly.
  • We are all held together by invisible threads.
  • Books get lonely too.
  • Sadness can be eaten.
  • I will always be there.

Black Sun..


"During spring in Denmark, at approximately one half an hour before sunset, flocks of more than a million European starlings (sturnus vulgaris) gather from all corners to join in the incredible formations shown above. This phenomenon is called Black Sun (in Denmark), and can be witnessed in early spring throughout the marshlands of western Denmark, from March through to the middle of April. The starlings migrate from the south and spend the day in the meadows gathering food, sleeping in the reeds during the night. The best place to view this amazing aerial dance is in the place called "Tøndermarsken," where these pictures were taken (on April 5 from 19.30 to 20.30 local time). "

Lately..

I've had water on my mind.
Waves and salt and the way your feet feel after walking along the shore.
