July has been a month of travelling and shifting for me. August will be a weird one too. Going to Seattle and Wisconsin for my sister’s wedding festivities. I got a new job working at a chocolate factory thanks to a fellow auditioner for the sf neofuturists. Right on time, too. My deadline for moving…

The title of this work is “Overwhelming Sky.” You can see the process of creating this work in layers and stages.

Title of piece: “Uplifting Impression of Mind-Bending Resignation” Turns out there’s an Abstract Art Title Generator. http://noemata.net/pa/titlegen/ I’m still working with the magic pens, discovering new effects. I’m intrigued by the layers. Recently, I’ve worked with the “confetti effect” and I thought about how to organize the coloring of the little rice-sized marks. Creating a coast…
