As of late I have been doing a lot of Abstracts. I have a number of Chicago shows and it is a very contemporary market. There are so many shows in Chicago that you really have to have something different to get peoples attention. My abstacts a a little different in that they have shadows and a lot of different planes or levels (depth). At least I think so.

I've had 7 shows in a row and then vacation, It's been a busy summer so far.

This is a commission that I recently did.

I know I have been away from the blog for a while. I have done 7 shows in the past 8 weeks. It has been all that I can do to get ready for the shows.

I am busy painting and framing for shows. This is one of the painting I will be dragging across the country, hopefully for not very long. I have been working a a deal with a company that supplies framed prints for hotels. They have 37 of my painting that they are looking to print. Hopefully it will come to something, you just never know how these kind of things will do. Wish me luck!

I have been in the doledrums as far as painting goes. I have been painting,but it has been laborous. I have finally come into the light and am painting at a furious pace. I seem to work best under a deadline.

I am presently painting a lot of small acrylics. I just haven't taken the time to take photo's of them. I am wanting to do some instructional painting videos. So,I bought a new computer with windows 7. Then I found out that my real expensive scanner won't work with Windows 7 ,that'a a real bummer.

Well it already happened, I got in 2 art shows ranked in the top 100 in the nation. Both are on the same weekend. Now I will have to cancel one. Summerfair in Cincinnati and 57th Street in Chicago. Summerfair is close, but 57th Street is grandfathered. If I do 57 St, I might be guaranteed of getting back in for at least a couple years. Summerfair keeps jurying me in and out. I was in, then out, in 2 years, then out, now in again. The economy is really down in Cincinnati, maybe it's better in Chicago. This is a tough call.
