Wahoo! Got new batteries for my camera! I know, it doesn't sound all that impressive...BUT! These are "special" (NiMH) batteries and they totally make a difference. Especially to me and my state of mind not having to change out batteries every 10 minutes. (Next purchase is a bigger memory card.)

So, with my new found freedom to click away, I did just that this past weekend! I was click happy. It felt really good....so good in fact that I had to download my pics and video to my computer several times. Yay! I'm not quite ready to share it all yet....they certainly aren't all gems, primarily video's, and need to be gone thru. An upcoming project, after I finish a painting that I'm working on, is to compile the video's for a DVD. A certain few musicians are pumped about that! And I am too... :)


P.S. Why does it take "f-o-r-e-v-e-r" for paint to dry when you want it to????

Airbrushed Fire FlowersHere are the results of the airbrush session. I used Higgins Drawing Ink, Dr. Ph Martin's Transparent Watercolor, and rubbing alcohol on watercolor paper. The airbrush you ask? A Badger single action internal mix, Model 200... if you are that curious.

I just let it evolve on its own with no real idea in mind at first. I've had these explosive, mushroom-like flowers on my mind lately. Still in development. Anyway, they seem to be something beautiful that suddenly turn to mayhem. Like a mushroom releasing its spores.
Finally got some time in the studio!
Rearranged for bigger projects and got rid of some junk. It was either that or blow out the wall and expand....hahaha. Also, got a good bit of priming done. I experimented with the airbrush a bit and had some interesting results. (Picture in another post). Ummmm....also, check out Valsartdiary on Youtube if you get a chance.
