My own personal beast

All the things.....are illuminated. They live on this hill in my mind. Just colors and shapes forever.

Life

I wish I lived on the West Coast some days. I feel like the West loves it's artists more. Like the richest and worst art lovers only live here some what. I just don't feel like having to get up like Swoon and Obey. I'm not a graffiti artist but I get why they bomb walls to stand out. It is not easy to find places that want to celebrate living artists. They want to the ide not the person. We do so much in the moments we create and not a soul but us celebrates artists. The funny but is mostly artists buy art from artists. It's funny and sad how we pass the amendment money in a way around in our circles. Where are the Bohemianist of our generation of creativity?  Did all the spirit of free love move to Canada when Nixon was President? ......hmmmmmm   I am not crazy enough at this point for it not to bother me anymore. I sobered up and now the world feels grey outside of my home. .....is anyone else listening as we roll round in space like marbles for the stars?

Darla the beast

I seem to always over think painting nudes. I want to and I have but I always fear the hate ransoms give me about it. I know  , I talk and talk and talk about being fearless but everyone wants to feel good about their creative mind. I just hate not being able to retort a critic. I'm a bit of a hot head I'll admit freely but it's honestly my passion bleeding out. I will at some point go back to painting nudes and even doing masks again but I'm waiting for a moment when I feel I don't need more paintings for my new art show in April. I feel like I'm hiding sometimes from haters in the art show because I can't put nudes in it. It's like a safety belt in a car that isn't moving because it is imaginary.

I feel is such a good place with my painting but I feel I need to become a better painter. The struggle is real I guess.

Love is reading the books of people a painting by Jaws Blake

Making is my favorite. I'm in love and have always been with making. The moments slip away in brush strokes.
