Mahalo hang10!
i have a LOT of exciting projects/exhibits slotted for this year
which i will be releasing in small bits to the public.
Some will be hidden in plain sight
Revealed only after the patina of time has formed upon them...
So, these "slow" months are dedicated to
Formulatin'
Ruminatin'
Philosophizin'
Musin'
and thinking up a good solid pile of ideas
to incorporate into aforementioned secret projects...

Cause y'all see......
Art ain't JUST makin purdy pictures (and all the study/practice/toil that goes into that)
Art is also about problem solving
that perfect story
that lasting image
that conveyed emotion
trapped inside the surface
for an eternity.
Sometimes it arrives in a FLASH
other times,i have to leave food out
Befirend it....
A good balance of talent AND imagination/creativity
is what helps to make the art truly ART....

So i'm glad it stuns you,pal!
That's a good litmus test as to how all these revealed pieces will end up...
And thanks again for your constant encouragement and STOKE!

Sharing the work and revealing a bit of what goes on behind it
adds to that wonderful pool of art knowledge...
and i feel very lucky to be able to do my part....
