When one creates a team logo, one must also provide stickers for the team.

Finally doing something creative. I have been in quite the sunken place of creativity. This #logodesign was inspired by a coworker's "mouse eating protein bars" story. That story became the name of our new team at work, which meant a logo needed to be created.

As per my last post, reminder that I'm no pixel artist. However, here's my pixel art update to one of my pixel bots I created 19 years ago. I can't decide which updated version I like better, Option A or B. Thoughts from the #pixelart community? #staycreative #TryingOtherArtStyles

I'm not a pixel artist, but I really appreciate the art. I've tried my hand at it from time to time and I am by no means really good at it. However, that doesn't stop me from giving it a try again with a simple project to update an old pixel art robot I did many years ago. Wish me luck!

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position.

April's Flight - 24"x24" #OilOnCanvas - This fell into play rather quickly...it's been a long time since inspiration hit this hard to finish an oil painting in one sitting.

The Painted Lady - 24"x24" #OilOnCanvas - This was fun piece to work on and a challenge to work with a different color palette.

The latest paintings that just finished today. Both are from reclaimed paintings that have been sitting in storage for a while. I should have better photos later this week. #abstract #butterfly #nature

If you are looking to support living artists this year for your gift giving, I have my work available at many online shops.
I spent the last few weeks updating my POD stores and my Etsy store. I have a bit more to add to my Etsy shop, though all my available original oil paintings are up.
You can find my work on Etsy, Zazzle, Saatchi, FineArt America, Threadless, and Teepublic.

Lunar Reflections - #OilOnCanvas -
This one was challenging in many regards. I'm pleased with where this piece went, but I know I could have improved on it and pushed it further.

Azure Signals - 24"x24" #OilOnCanvas - Another reclaimed canvas & breathed new life into it. I'm wanting to get more loose with my work and not lay the paint down so thick. Hopefully, I achieved that with this piece. I really like the glow & the colors I got in this piece. Very pleased.

Look -- 20"x20" #OilOnCanvas -- Another painting that took me forever to complete. This one was on my easel...mocking me. Definitely tried something different with this one. I tried to capture the mystery of a rare black barn owl.

Silent Shore -- 20"x30" #OilOnCanvas
This painting is on a reclaimed canvas. I believe this is now the third painting on this canvas. Hopefully, this latest image is more lively than the previous image. This took me a while as I am still struggling with a bit of a creative funk.

Been pretty distracted lately, so I've not be able to engage on here as much as I would like. I have had a bit of time to be working on a couple of paintings that I'd like to share...the owl piece is causing me some challenges. The owl piece is become more an experimental piece as I tinker with it.
