It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. Life has been very busy. Kathy is pushing me to post more things, so I’m going to do my best. I’m currently working on a collection of paintings for my upcoming show at Barrio Cafe in Phoenix. It goes up Monday, June 7th and stays until August. Here is one of my paintings, it isn’t done  yet. It’s inspired by Kathy’s new novel that comes out next year.

Kathy and I had an art exhibit at The Heard Museum for the past 11 months. We made over 500 items for the 1,000 foot gallery space. We had a silent auction last Friday night to close the show. Everything sold! The rest we get to take home and enjoy in our house. Maybe we’ll sell some it, we’re not sure yet. Thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting us and the exhibit!

I haven’t had time to blog lately, I’ve been super busy making art. The orders for fall are starting to flow in, and i’m trying to get a jump on the season. Here is what I’ve made!

… a new painting! My wife loves to eat fresh fruit slices with Pico de Gallo sprinkled on top, or sometimes Tajin seasoning. To see the plate and how she arranges the pieces, it looks very vibrant. It was ripe to be painted! This painting is dedicated to all the fruit lovers out there! I have some mantasitcally cool craft projects coming up next week for Father’s Day so stay tuned!

This is my newest painting for framed prints and my host mascott for Mantastic Comix!You wont find her in any old poolside party but you can find her only here on the most Mantastic site ever!Help me find her a name and win her print for free!!
