Mondays and Smells

   So since this is my first post, I guess I should try and explain the point of this blog. With every new painting I create, I will create a blog that goes along with it. I will unload my thoughts regarding the painting, my day, and what it is I'm trying to do. I hope you enjoy!

Title: Monday
Date: 8-29-11

   This painting took about 3 hours time. I did it late last night while listening to the newest Deftones record, "Diamond Eyes." I really love that record and I believe it DEFINITELY helped me along with this woman, lipstick, and fish. I hope you get something out of this painting. I don't want to just spell everything out regarding this picture. Take it for what it is, I think it's pretty obvious. 

   From now on I will post the stages of my paintings from beginning to end so you can get a better idea of my process. In the near future I will also make prints of all my paintings available to purchase! I just want people to find pleasure in my art, that is my goal! 

Thanks!

p.s. If you don't like the Deftones, I'm not sure we can be friends... ;)
