My website, DeviantArt and Facebook
I posted this earlier on DeviantART:
I lost my website because I couldn't afford to keep it. I could have renewed it, this is true, however I felt like I wasn't getting anything out of it. It was also frusterating because I couldn't make changes on it myself. I didn't have the software for the upkeep. I kept having to contact a person I referred to ( Read more... ) -

Benevolent Acorn
So I haven't painted for a couple weeks just because everything has just been far to busy. I am working on some knitting projects for friends so that is a little bit creative at least. I am also still tending to the Art collection at Blue Moon Coffee Cafe which by the way I will be changing over tomorrow evening to Jesse Vadnais a local painter and ( Read more... ) -
Private Showing
So I am currently having a very exclusive private showing..... at my friend Andy's place. He had a poker game and his "art" room was sorely lacking in... well... Art. So I have loaned a few things from the Kurylo collection (or so its been dubbed) and they now hang proudly in his penthouse apartment in St Paul. I am sure he would love for you to ( Read more... ) -

I can't really afford to.....but I think I know enough that I can practice what I do know so that I can get better at technique I guess. If anyone has anny ideas on ( Read more... ) -
Recycled Art at the Midtown Global
So thanks to a chance viewing of the website for Midtown Global Market... while on the clock at Barnes and Noble no less (I wasn't the one who looked it up.... in fact it was a manager... so there) I am now entering an artfair. The rule is that the piece has to be made out of at least 75% recycled... stuff. I learned about this ten days before the ( Read more... ) -
Class...
So back when I was in college the advisor who helped me pick out courses told me to take ones that would inspire me in my major. This really only caused me to become a double major (I started Art I graduated Art/Theatre)... and I have been sitting here lately thinking of what to do to stimulate myself in that same way ( Read more... ) -
