Social networks

I’v been working on social networking, myspace, flickr, mybloglog, it can get pretty crazy but it is worth it – it’s all about presence and marketing. sometimes it’s hard to keep them all straight but they are slowly developing.

The Naked Face

Many of my pieces are missing faces…. usually I have obscured them or edited them from the composition. I’ve been thinking for a while on it, and I wanted to bring my facelessness to the next level and make them more confrontational.I work faceless for a number of reasons.

Paris Hilton is Dead

“Campaign to Rescue Women of Youth” featuring “The Paris Hilton Autopsy” offers a cadaveric nude Paris Hilton, laid out with twisted body and opened abdominal cavity on a coroner’s table, while her cell phone remains in her grip. The ‘unglamorous’ display which includes support material from anti-drunk driving organizations counters“the disturbingly glamorized trend of Hollywood’s ‘girls gone wild’,” according to gallery director, David Kesting.Paris Hilton, arrested for a DUI last year, previously released a marginally effective PSA concerning drunk driving. This latest PSA includes a website by Capla Kesting, which offers high school educators an icebreaker for discussing drunk driving’s consequences.

Nude in Progress

This is one of the pieces I have been working on lately. the figure is complete but I will be adding a glazed element to the painting in full color…. I could see it in my head every time i closed my eyes but I was afraid to work without a model and proper lighting.

testing

Ova – 24" x 30" Acrylic and Gesso on Canvas,by I’m testing a new way to use my flickr images in my posts.a quick warning, my site is down (again :roll:) hopefully it will be back up again soon.

Back from Festival

Well, I am back, slowly getting into the swing of things again and resting up from a full easter. I am part of a historical reenactment group and indulge my love of costume making, singing and research.

a New Ochre Nude

The other night I came home from a party where I had enjoyed much art geeking and looking at amazing works. well, after all that I had no choice but to paint – it was a physical need so I practically ran into the studio at 2:30am pausing only to grab my iPod.
