You don’t have to be the best at art, just as long as you’re a fan & have fun with it. There are also other contests on the website if you're interested. I’ll put the links to everything down below. The website will ask you to create an account, which is fairly simple.

Stars on a Hook, 15x19, 2018

On another note, My girlfriend & I will be going to San Francisco next week to go to museums such as SFMOMA, the Academy of Sciences, Ripley’s Believe it or not!, possibly the de Young, the Asian Art Museum & The Exploratorium. Don’t worry, I will still be posting next week, well we are over there. I can’t wait to see some of the greats such as Jasper Johns, Frida Kahlo, Paul Klee, Henri Matisse, Georgia O’ Keeffe, Andy Warhol, Diego Rivera, Robert Rauschenberg & Jackson Pollock just to name a few. I’ve only been to SFMOMA once in college with my Art Tours class. We were only there for about one to two hours, which isn’t enough time to see & appreciate the whole museum. I’m so stoked to be going again & actually spending most of the day at SFMOMA.

Thanks again you guys, hope you’re having a wonderful Friday & have a great weekend!

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.

From Nature To Machine; 2 Year old Snowman!

Hello Everyone, If you are new to by blogs, welcome. If you are not new to my blogs, welcome back! Hope everyone had a wonderful & safe spring break. This past week was an eventful week for me. Going on the trip to San Francisco, it being weekend Easter weekend & trying to get getting back into the groove of things back home. On our trip, we tried some new restaurants, went to the California Academy of Sciences, SFMOMA , Ripleys!, Madame Tussauds & the San Francisco Dungeon. We walked around UC Berkeley, Haight Street in SF & around Pier 39, which was pretty fun. It was fun, finding inspiration in the big city that surrounds its visitors with art & beautiful weather. Peter Fischli and David Weiss, Snowman , 1987/2016 Here in Central California, we have been experiencing warmer weather than usual, which we aren’t used to because we were having nice San Francisco/Los Angeles weather. The other day, as I was leaving the store; walking to my ca...
