a chunk from a larger pieced together piece. acrylic and ink on wood. Messing around with some new stuff.
I made some creatures to sell this past Christmas - these are two of them. To me they were a bear and a rabbit, but people had different ideas about what each one was. Turns out they could be many different creatures. I like that about them.
I saw this charming piece of folk art for sale; it was carved by a gentleman by the name of Mieczyslaw Tawadzlu in Lukow, Poland, a town famous for this form of folk art. I wish I had enough zloty to purchase it!
new painting! For the "All Star Hustlaz" show at White Walls in Dec. By the way...this is the biggest painting I have done since school!
This piece of sandstone was varnished with some embedded opal flakes and then painted over. We picked it up in Australia. The artist was Hilda Dobrota, from Andamooka, S.A. For 2016: one photo each day (265/366) And Happy equinox!

The original, the only: Salvation Mountain. Leonard Knight began creating the Mountain in 1984. In 2000, the Mountain was named a National Folk Art Site.
In 2014, Leonard Knight died. However, a nonprofit group had organized in 2011 with the purpose of preserving the Mountain. This image contains most of the original Mountain which was constructed of on-site adobe, straw and other found objects. According to a caretaker, the area had recently received five days of heavy rain. The main Mountain survived pretty well but the Hogan which is situated right of the image became unsafe to enter.
We were lucky because the Mountain had received a new coat of paint by volunteers a couple days before we arrived so it was very vibrant. The blue and white section represents the Sea of Galilee. The whole installation was off limits to visitors on the day we visited due to drying paint and drying adobe. Normally visitors can travel up the Yellow Brick Road on the right.. This quite the unique place that is sustained entirely by volunteers and voluntary donations by visitors.
