Stars on a Hook *My Neighbor Totoro T-Shirt Design*


Stars on a Hook, 15x19, 2018, Digital

 
Happy Tuesday Everyone,
Hope You’re Having a Great One! As promised, here is my design for the For Fans By Fans: My Neighbor Totoro Design contest. I uploaded my design to the FFBF site but it’s going to take 1-2 business days to be approved & uploaded. I’ll keep you guys updated on the status of the design & when you guys can go vote. In the meantime, let me know what you think. I wanted to keep this the design cute, unique & in space rather than in a forest. Even though, Totoro’s are forest spirits; I felt that a lot of the entries were going to be based in the forest.
I might be doing a give away when the artwork is posted; more on that in the next blog. Thanks for taking time out of your busy day & spending some time on me; I appreciate it. Talk to you guys soon & Stay Tuned!

Strong Women & Expressionism.

Hey everyone, Sorry, I’ve been gone for a week. How have you guys been? Hopefully you all have been well & have had a great week. I’m great, SUPER pumped for the news that I will be unveiling either Sunday in a special blog post or Tuesday. Over the next couple posts, I wanted to talk about one of my favorite art movements & a couple of the artist in the movement; which is expressionism. To celebrate International Women’s Days, I’m going to start off by talk about Kathe Kollwitz; who was considered to be a very important contributor to the art world in the 20 th century. She gave a new meaning to the word expression. Expressionism is an art movement that began in the early 20th century. The movement’s origin was rumored to have emerged from an exhibit in Paris in 1901 and is still used today in many other pieces of art.  Prior to the events of World War I, artists from this movement had gone against the aesthetic forms and cultural norms with a deep sense of s...

99¢ Photoshoot! **SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT**

Hey everyone, Today’s blog is mainly going to consist of a video that I wanted to share with you for two reasons: People normally think that you have to spend a significant amount of money on a photoshoot. (T his is completely false, I mean you can but you don’t have too.)  You can use found objects, go to the dollar store or even thrift store. In this video, Lucas Blalock , a New York based photographer, uses dollar store items to create unique compositions & some great photography.   Lucas Blalock's 99¢ Store Still Life's | "New York Close Up" | Art21 If you liked what you read please share this blog by hitting the "Share" button at the bottom of the page & leave a comment on what you would like me to blog about next.

Natural Forces, Flora & Becoming One With The Earth!

Hello Everyone, h ope you are having a great day! Mapped Out #2 , 36" × 48", acrylic soft-pastel on stretched canvas, 2017 I love nature especially where I live because we are surrounded by fields of fruit. We get to see them blossom in the spring & the leaves change colors throughout the fall. I’ve been doing a lot of gardening lately; planting/transplanting roses, planting succulents, pruning & keeping up the yard. The list goes on... I am currently working on  creating a cactus themed raised bed. The borders are made out of rounded bricks. I also have been looking at a lot of different types of art on Instagram, Youtube & Pinterest. I came across an  Heather Day , an artist that takes nature & transfers is on to a canvas. Her artwork is very expressionistic as she combines colors with textures to create some wonderful works of art. Some techniques that she uses remind me of the way Jackson Pollock used to paint. They both use their enti...
