My last action in the studio is to sit in my chair and stare up into the darkness of the night. We have had some beautiful winter nights. I don't live in a place that has so many lights that you can't enjoy the stars. The best part of the day, when I can't get to the studio, is waking up and seeing the abstraction that takes place in the skyline and I equally enjoy how minimal things are at night.
Night clouds are pretty too......
I'm always looking up because I believe that things are looking up. When I'm done looking over my paintings I just stare up into the sky, plan my future, and ask myself what else I can give to my work. One day I am going to be completely off filter and tell my story about sacrifice and overcoming pettiness to become who I want to become in this life. I choose to ignore a lot of things and people because I believe you attract the kind of energy you put out in this world. I hope that in the future that I am above giving negative thoughts any space to exist.
I feel like I'm on a roll and my hand and mind are charged with positive energy. I feel like I can't miss. I can't make a bad decision in the studio. This feeling is electric and I wish I had a hundred blank canvases lined up in front me because I could take them all on and win. I'm past the gateway paintings that signal a new body of work and my feet stand on a ground that is promising. I'm going to fight some spectacular battles in the studio as I am entering show mode - getting ready for a show in Philadelphia. I'm really excited to have an opportunity to introduce my work to a new part of the world. I will post more information about this show in the future. Right now I just want to kick some ass. I apologize to all my friends if I become a little distant and inaccessible. Just know that I am spending time in a world that I created that I completely love. I always create characters and icons of the people that mean the most to me so even thought I'm locked away in the lab you all are in my thoughts.
