Happy Friday!

So two nights ago, beth and I were sitting on our couch talking about heavy stuff for a long time. The next morning I woke up and had to go work on something a little light-hearted. I've only got so much seriousness in my whole body.

I am super proud of this little guy. I've always had a complete obsession with Barry Mcgee's work. He takes frames that he gets cheap at thrift stores and rummage sales and makes art to go in them. Basically a backwards process, since framing is generally the last step and not the first. I've bought many cheap frames in the past, but usually they sit around until we move and then I get rid of them. This time I actually finished my painting though, and I am quite pleased. I want to do more even. This one is called "Jam I am"

I also finished the first of a couple pieces with birds in trees. Simple stuff, but I like the "subtle" headphones. Anyway until next time, Hasta la pasta.
