Model Wife...

Every year I do a live mural at the Tommy Tant Surf Classic in Flagler Beach, FL. Last year I painted a mural that was made up of 4 separate canvases. Cory Cavin, comedic writer & actor, bought one of the pieces last year. I recently saw the work again on the online TV show "Model Wife". It's funny when you take 1/4 of a painting & then hang it on its side. Below is episode one. Check out the site to view other episodes. Enjoy...

"In the Midst of Hope" Recap

Several months ago I had the idea to create and organize a major art show to help out a non-profit organization I really believe in. After months of work the show opened to one amazing evening! Over 40 artists from around the globe showing work based on the theme of "hope & love", all to benefit the non-profit organization Light Gives Heat. 300+ people came out for the opening. The evening was full of live music, good food and drinks, smiles, and a great time.
Thank you to all the sponsors and artists who were apart of the event. If you are in Colorado be sure to stop by LGH Studio at 354 Main Street, Grand Junction, CO. The show will be open for one more week! Friday evening there will be a closing party.
All artwork is now online and available to purchase. All Proceeds from the artwork sales will go directly to Light Gives Heat. Light Gives Heat works directly with families in Uganda, empowering them by providing them with means for sustainable incomes. Please take a moment to view, purchase amazing art work, and share with friends all for a great cause! * ONLINE STORE *

South Dakota...

I recently traveled through Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, and up to South Dakota.
Traveling through Nebraska there wasn't much to see until we came upon CarHenge!
Our final destination was Pine Ridge, South Dakota. A Indian Reservation of Dakota and Lakota (Sioux) Native America tribes. Acres and acres of grass lands, small run down trailers and houses. Inside the homes lived amazing families. One small house we visited housed 10+people. The floor boards, wall, windows, furniture, etc were falling apart but the families still were smiling. I sat with a couple of the children on a rock in the dirt and drew with them for an hour or so. A few of the others in the small group of ours worked on rebuilding floorboards and fixing leaking roofs. Later in the day we had a cookout for 30+ people on the reservation, I painted the children's faces, we rode horses, and played basketball. Making connections, sharing stories, and figuring out a possible solution to help those in need. The trip was short but the experience and people I met and connected with will be remembered. I always forget but then I am reminded again that so many things can be accomplished in just one amazing day. To see more pics check out my flickr.
