"Sour Hearts" Paintings

Finally getting all the paintings from the big show up on here : D

I also put up a few details from some of the works and a bunch of progress shots! It's always fun to see where a painting starts and how it ends (as well as sketches if you got them). Gotta say just about every painting I make ends up changing, sometimes even dramatically, before the end - usually just have a title or a figure in mind and everything else starts to evolve out of that....
Also, what I've taken note of over the past year is how the colour of skin I choose ends up orchestrating the entire colour scheme of a work....  It's always a delight to just through out natural tones and decide to make her blue or green ^__~

Enjoy!

Miss Teapartygirl, you never cease to amaze me! You inspire me to go back to my art. Good luck on the show, then :)

Yay! Inspiring is the one thing that I've always want to do. Spread the love ^_^
So many artists have done so for me, so it's only responsive to want to give that back.

Thanks so much for the message and the wishes too ~
Good luck with your work as well!

this is funny.. your bathtub artwork is really similiar to a bathtub artwork of mine and you probably never seen it. i read your description about it the other day on da and yeh.. ghosts by clint mansell one of the best songs i've heard:) the whole soundtrack of the movie is great though.
i loved the one with the purple hair.. i think it's quite different from what you do but yeh purple hair.. i will be dying mine soon kind of purple not exact purple but :D eheh i love colorful hair. the sketch of it it's really cool too..

after you wrote me this I went and checked out your work -- damn, your bathtub is like mine! Cool work, by the way - like your imagination ^__^
But ya, this keeps happening -- I was working on 'ghosts' back int he summer and suddenly I see two other artists release works involving bathtubs, argh, haha. Must be some kind of collective unconscious, or something mystical like that...

But ya, the 'Requiem' soundtrack - awesome! Just as good as the movie. Love the soundtrack for 'fightclub', and 'donnie darko', too!

Good luck with the purple hair though! If I ever would dye my hair, I'd go blue/turquoise... but I'm just not a dying hair kind of person.

Hey there ~

thanks so much! The drummer boy at the gallery was actually a portrait of my boy-friend when he was a little younger. I'm planning on doing another one of him soon since he now plays guitar ^__^

Ya, I go to the gallery just about twice a month now -- am actually heading on over there this coming Friday (though I'm not sure for how long I'll be there?). If you wanna come say hi, I'll probably be there for about 2pm. Will let you know for sure when I do though.

Thanks for sending me the message!
