Plastic, Plaster, Primer, Plywood, Art!

Might not be the best photos for transfers, but it was fun. And I found out that interior primer is lovely for xerox prints! 

Back to plastic

I have met an interesting girl working at the farm this past month. She has a wonderful love for biology and plant life. Every half hour or so I see her bending over in excitement over some bit of nature. I on the other hand have learned to overlook a LOT of things.  I like to get a job done. I look at weeds as one generic monster and rip them out without even glancing at them.

"Oh look! It's a rare beetle! Would you like to hold him?"

I have learned this week that I am not as afraid of bugs as I assumed myself to be.


This past week, I have been trying out new materials to work with in regards to transfers. I love paper, but I also feel the need for something more substantial.

Floor tile doesn't work.
Wood is pretty, and it's fun to wax plywood.

So what do I want to say with this? I'm cheap man... and it's making me think and observe a little more. That's the best exercise an artist in training can do.

In my mind, I still call all this Clothesline Art.

Cedervalley Dirt - " ya, it's that good!"

Second idea for the tattoo  The cross halo behind the bird is symbolic of the Trinity. The notes represent the unexplainable... And look! The Saturday Evening Post cover! 

You know you need to put a project down and let it breathe when it starts to look like a cover from the National Geographic.

Things in the making.

Another quilt!

My brother thinks I can draw and so hires me to create his tattoos .. I don't know what he is going to think of this idea. Rockin 1910.

Cedervalley Town Hall- Memorial Day

Praise God, from who all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him, above ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
