I have been very busy in art class. One of my projects is to
paint a painting of someone else’s art. This is my painting
of Paul Gauguin’s The Call

My assignment is to make a color wheel in any shapes I want in oils.
I kind of went overboard….. This should be an idea I develop more
later. It’s so shiny cause its still wet.
In February I am participating an an auction called Art on the Vine
benefiting the Oregon College of Art and Craft. Please visit their blog
and support our local art colleges!
OCAC
For the auction Fool’s Lament is up for bid.
I have about a week until I start school again. Well less than
a week if you count the life painting class I am taking on
Fridays. This means I need to get some work done before
I get too exhausted. I started on my Art in Hand Project.
Here is the beginning of the Queen of Hearts/Self Portrait.
My paintings are now at Cup and Saucer Cafe on Killingsworth
in Portland. Go to Upcoming Shows to look at the address.
Here is a revision of an older piece.
and here is the finished Evilyn Sin Claire
Yesterday I was given some great news. Here in Portland a new project is
beginning for 54 local artists. The goal is to create a one-of-a-kind art
deck that showcases local artists to be sold in some local stores. The call
for art was issued last month. I was chosen to be one of the 54 artist to
create a unique playing card. The painting does not create a revenue for
me but there will be a showing sometime in March of all the 54 paintings.
In late April the original paintings will be auctioned off and the proceeds
will be given to the charity of the artists choice. I turned in my paper
work for the project right away and was given my first choice for my card.
The Queen of Hearts!
For this painting I am planning on doing a self portrait. Here is a rough
look at what I am basing the painting on.

Tonight I was featured in the grow gallery. I had a lot of fun
it was interesting ease-dropping on others. Thank you so much
Grow Gallery and Art on Alberta for letting my little paintings
show!
Before people showed up!
I am very excited to announce that my two submissions for the
100th monkey art gallery for pilgrimage were accepted! The show
opens November 6th at 110 SE 16th Ave, Portland OR
A Reflection of Age
Death is a Part of Life
The gallery I am showing out is unable to be opened this particular Thursday.
So the showing will be postponed to next month. I will still be walking around
but I don’t think I will be trying to sell on the street. See you next month?
