The Need to Create



So I got in one of those moods, and the only thing to do is paint when I get into that mood. I can't really describe it, its a kind of hunger, like withdrawals perhaps. It is a definite need. The need to Create, and well I got busy. It was fantastic. I listened to Micah P. Hinson and that too, was fantastic.



That's right, there's three. Two of which are quite large as that small one is almost five feet tall. I had to stand on the desk. Also these are probably under paintings, just so you know.

That far one on the right there used to be something entirely different. Its one of my walls to the room of canvases that I did a couple years ago. I never finished it, and being a couple years ago, I paint quite differently now, and I think better. So why go back to that? So face change for the room still not entirely sure where it will lead, but I will just see where it goes.

Here's a detail, since my studio is not big enough to get the whole thing straight on.



This one I am hoping to redo what I did for the paint off in a more complete way. Even though I think it might be my fav...I'll see how I feel tomorrow. But I plan on finishing it in time for the show on Thursday.



This one, I really have no idea what lies in store for it, I mostly just needed another thing to paint on while the other two dried a little. You see its easier for me when I do stuff like this if I have multiple services to work with, because I use so much paint, even acrylic doesn't dry fast enough. And well when I'm like this in the zone so to speak (hate that phrase) I am not patient. So the more the merrier. Though it is tiresome, in every way.



Here's a few more shots:



Ever wonder what it would look like if it rained paint?



This is just a detail of that same one, the middle one.




What I looked like afterward. *Not pictured: potentially large bruise on left ass cheek from falling off my stool, and bruise and scrap on my right forearm.

Hard Days Work

I have a slight obsession with the copy machine. And our lovely Canon Image Runner 3225 knows that I am his biggest admirer. Its true we have love for one another. Frequently others will come in and he will start to act up. I think that it's because I give him fun projects.

Like this!
















I think my time was well spent today in the office!
