A Month Has Passed

It has been exactly one month today that I last visited here...

Really dedicated right?

haha

Its been even longer since I visited my DevianArt page:

http://poppacrylics.deviantart.com/

It was so long that I not only forgot my password...

I also forgot my login ID!!!

I am still working on my HUGE 4'x5' painting but when I've wanted something small and quick to do I have been working on the Producer Series.

The first one was in my last post and here is the second one:

I am in the process of working on the third one.

When it is complete I will be building a modern frame for them and of course I will share a pic with you

... my fans...

HAHA

It's Been Awhile - again....

I cannot believe how long it has been since I have posted here...

Life really got a hold of me [and not for the better this time].

I have done a lot of paintings since I was here the last time and they are posted below.

Again however, I have nothing to do with them, so if you see one you want and are willing to cover the cost of postage - I will send it to you.

Someone I follow on Instagram took a photo of a flower like this and I asked him if I could paint it. Needless to say he said yes and sent me his email to send it to him.

I sent it today - we'll see how he likes it.

[The photo is darker than it really is - it is much brighter and vibrant.]

I received this 4' x 5' canvas for mothers day - this one is still in the works.

I hope you enjoyed and please feel free to leave comments and follow - it may inspire me to update this page more often.

Busy Bee

I'm sorry I have not been here to entertain my followers.

There has not been much new going on in my world - I finally completed the wall mural:

And I have also created two artistic aprons:

As I said there has not been much going on here.

If I ever get the extra money I plan on making more aprons and women's T-shirts.

Well this hobby doesn't pay the bills so I must go get ready for work.

Uninspired

Uninspired

~~~~~~~~

Yeah, that is me.

There is so much going on in my life that I just do not have the desire to be creative.

I can feel the proverbial black cloud hanging over me.

Looming.

Promising doom in the future.

In other words...

I believe the shit is about to hit the fan.

I cannot do anything about it either.

I have no choice but to unfurl my sails and blow through the pending storm like a bat out of hell.

I will not fight or argue anymore.

It isn't worth it.

We have no choice.

It is time to move on.

Until then...

I will be an obedient servant for I am nothing more.

I will not be forced to fail when I have no control.

YOU WILL NOT BEAT ME!

I WILL WIN & YOU WILL FAIL!

Wall Mural Again...

I'm so tired!

I worked at least 15 hours this weekend on the wall mural for the gym.

I now have sore knees, ass, back....

Have even dealt with a totally numb hand at a few points.

Ugh...

But I think its worth it so far

what do you think?

As always, I am painting the background last.

[bottom right corner]

I don't know why but that's just what I do.

Maybe I will learn one day that I can still draw the design just touch up where I make mistakes.

Nah

I'm Still Here!

I have not painted anything recently that has taken only a few days of time because I am currently working on a wall mural in my roommates home gym. [Also remember, I work full time.]

Other than the mural and work, life has been stressing me out so bad for the last two weeks.

I literally felt my blood pressure sky rocket twice today! No its not a health concern, it was caused by external factors. The kind that I have only limited control over.

I cant help but think of Bob Segers - Feel like A Number, lately.

Well, I have a long weekend ahead of me - working on the mural, I should catch some zzzzzzzzz's.

Good night my fellow deviants! <3

Wall Mural

Yep!

I am painting a wall mural in a room we are converting into a home gym.

Thank fully we are slowly buying the equipment, thus giving me time to complete the mural.

Below is a picture of the rough sketch:

(Yet another awful iPhone 3Gs phone pic.)

Anyway, this is getting done in shades of blue in a room we have already painted a bright pure white.

It looks really good too! I cannot wait until it is all done.

I'm getting a punching bag and probably some pink gloves!

(Well that is what I'd like.)

I'm also getting a Roman something bench its used for suspended sit ups.

I cannot wait, those are the best sit ups anyone can do.

Anyway, if I can find the charger for my camera I will post pics of the progress.

Until then - thank you for visiting my blog!

I thank all of you for your support!
