Wow, art and life dont work smoothly togethor! But at the same time that I have not had time on my own artwork in my life, I have taken my artwork to a real life situation of teaching art to kids of all walks of life for a year now through a childrens art museum. I have taught kids as young as 5yrs old how to throw on a wheel to make a plate and taken thousands of kids on a "trip, 5000 years ago", to the beginning of art making in the caves of France and Africa.....and I have also taught to homeless kids the joy of art making in their distressed lives. Have also side tracked on a project for a friend based in a circus theme, so I have worked on backdrops and masks for a photo series project. Will post a few mask photos soon.
But I do also want time to get back to my own paintings...I want to do a few more in the current series about the 30's and then move on to other issues that need to be covered. I found I should focus closer on individual faces again to show my more intense expression through somebody elses face.
Anyway, will try to get back to it soon.

Thank you to all who are waiting paitently for my next few pieces....hope they come out good! LOL!

PS: I need old family photos I can paint from the 1930's era?

Nice to hear from you. You sound pretty busy even if it isn't with your own work.

Unfortunately I don't have any 30's photographs...but I can't wait to see your masks.
