Painting and Stuffs

I have been busy painting lately. Now that my kids are older I am now able to do this more often than I have over the last 9 years. I  love it because it's one of my favorite things to do beside beading. I could buy out any art supply store of their canvases and be happy forever if I had the money to do it. So I have been doing a lot of bright pop art type things. It's more of what I like to do. I am not a traditional Native American artist, I don't do strictly Native motifs in my art. I do this mainly because I hate how people try to pigeonhole Native artists into this archetype of doing strictly Native inspired art pieces. When I do include Native themes in my work, I do portrait work or I do interpretations on creation stories and other stories I have heard as I was growing up. I was heavily influenced by comics and cartoon art as I was growing up so that shows in what I do. I had a stash of comic books in my room and I would sit there by my window and practice drawing in the sunlight. I would also make my own comics and flip animations. All this has evolved into this crazyness I try to put out to the masses. So enough of my rambling, it's show and tell time!

Here are some paintings in progress. I am going to paint them soon.

So even though things might be quiet on here, I am working like mad making things all the time. Maybe that is why it's so quiet on here! Until next time!

New illustrations, and yes they are for sale as prints and other items in the Zazzle store. These are just some really cute designs and drawings I came up with for a proposal that didn't come to fruition. I liked them so much I decided to use them for myself since they weren't going to be used otherwise. Such is the way things go when you are bidding for work though.






I especially like the one with all the sugary food. MMMMMMMMM sugary food. Makes me want to make cupcakes. Too bad I am all out of sugar. :(

Still tweaking the new site a bit. Should be up and running soon as long as nothing comes up and eats my money, like evil student loans >_<.
