This series of images just painted is really a single painting. It was an experiment to see if the three would work together. I like the idea of multiple views on a single picture plane. Each pod is individual and distinct. There is a solitude to this work and a quietness about how I approached the process. To see things from all sides before making a decision--that is what I am thinking about today. Life is an unveiling of the conscious and subconscious mind as well as a simultaneous act of mindful living.im-age ar´chae-ol´o-gy™, [im-ij] [ahr-kee-ol-uh-jee], n. 1. The systematic recovery by artistic methods of imagery within the ground of a painting. 2. A dig into the surface ground with the butt of a paintbrush to imprint an image. 3. The space between the figure and the ground from which emerges a skeletal impression of an image. 4. A constant searching for the middle ground through the application of paint and projected thought that culminated into a work of art.

Since August 8, 2008, I have been inspired by the painting a day phenomenon that is happening in the blogsphere. This truly is an art movement. I started my first daily painting with a tomato from my summer garden. I will also be using my “Earth Objects” as inspiration. This should be an interesting ride.
My plan is to post a painting a day at least five days a week. Please feel free to "feed your burn" and tell other art lovers about this blog site.

Geranium Kiss, 9" x 9"
Often in painting, I remind myself that the areas left unpainted are perhaps the most ambiguous. Just like in life, when things left unsaid become obscured. I ponder these things as I am painting today. I am thinking about my brother Joe. I am proud of him and who he has become as a man. I would like to dedicate this painting to him. Love you bro and thanks for looking out for baby James!

Chocolate Cupcake
What a blast it was to paint this chocolate cupcake. I wanted to keep it loose since yesterday's pancakes were so detailed. I plan on doing a series of cupcakes. What is your favorite flavor?

A Couple of Limes
A couple more limes today. I really enjoyed painting these juicy limes. The colors and brightness are refreshing and make me happy
