This is a totem pole of my life till now. Would you please tell me what it means about my life? * * * * * * * * * * * It's been one week since I started this totem pole. It is an exercise created by Jerry Saltz in his article "How to Be an Artist. 33 Rules to take you from clueless amateur to generational talent". You can find the article by googling '33 rules'. His instructions for the exercise are excerpted below: * * "Exercise: Build a Life Totem. Using any material on any surface, make or draw or render a four-foot-tall totem pole of your life. From this totem, we should be able to know something about you other than what you look like or how many siblings you have. Include anything you want: words, letters, maps, photos, objects, signs. This should take no longer than a week. After a week, it’s finished. Period. Now show it to someone who does not know you well. Tell them only, “This is a totem pole of my life till now.” That’s all. It doesn’t matter if they like it. Ask them to tell you what it means about your life. No clues. Listen to what they tell you." * * It's a fascinating exercise. I hope you will help me complete it by telling me what it means about my life. I will listen to what you tell me. #totempole #totem #howtobeanartist #jerrysaltz #drawing #mylife #exercise #artwork #33rules @jerrysaltz #mylightwidget

#wip @fridakahlo This piece is 24" x 19". Oil on gesso board. I'm not sure exactly what got into me as this piece came out rather fast. In fact I was painting over a different piece that I had been working on but just didn't like. It was a painting of something that I can't remember at this point, and I know I didn't like it at all. I had worked on it for quite a long time until I just decided to give up and paint over it entirely. Something about making that decision was freeing and led to me using the brush in a way that I'm not accustomed to. I was unconcerned with whether or not what I was doing was "good" and just went with what I was feeling. Apparently I was feeling Frida. She has long been one of my favorite artists but I had not endeavored to paint or draw her until this piece. I really like it. Even though it's quite a bit different in style from most of the things that I do/have done. I'm not sure that I'll deliberately work in this particular style again. But I am happy I took this opportunity and ran with it. Have you ever felt or worked this way? * * * * * * * * * #oilpainting #portrait #fridakahlo #art #shermanoaks #painting #artists #mylightwidget

#fbf This is artwork I did for T-shirts commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Strauss Playhouse Young Troupe in Monroe, Louisiana. I got my start in the theatre at the playhouse many moons ago, and it was a special treat for me to design this for the celebration. Looking back on it, don't think I ever received my actual T-shirt ... Hmm... What's up with that, Strauss Playhouse? #mylightwidget

Working on a new doodle today. This is the lower right hand quadrant so the rest has yet to develop. Something therapeutic about pen on paper. Helps me expose and understand more about what's going through my mind. Today I am contemplating consumerism as perversion, and the insidious indifference to spreading it. Like an STD. I think that's what this section of this doodle is about. I'm anxious to see how the rest develops. I would love to know your thoughts. What does this image make you think? * * * * * * * * * #wip #workinprogress on #anewdoodle #penonpaper #whatsgoingthroughmymind #contemplating #consumerism #perversion #insidiousindifference #topramen #toprodman #drawingwhilethinking #partofmydoodle #artwork #drawing #mylightwidget

My current stickersheet turned out very nicely. The detail in the artwork is great and the quality of the vynil is excellent. Plus, they're a lot of fun to stick on stuff!

Progress on the drawing for the underpainting of a new work. I think the likeness is better, getting there but needs more work. Congrats to Kaepernick on the new gig. Respect to Nike for just doing it. I will post more pictures as it progresses.

I just received my new art book from @saal_digital and I couldn't be more pleased with it. The quality of the book is first rate, and the print quality of my artwork inside exceeded my expectations. Additionally, the staff at @saal_digital couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating in response to a few issues I had designing/laying out the pages according to my vision. The final product is a real winner and so is @saal_digital . Great company 👍 Great book 👍 Great time making it 👍 #mylightwidget

Another tiny portrait. Not sure who this character is, up from the recesses of my imagination. Glad he's contained inside this tiny floater frame. So much fun! More to come... #mylightwidget

Been watching a lot of old boxing on YouTube lately. Evander Holyfield was a beast with the heart of a lion. His brutal defeat of Mike Tyson is a classic. This work in progress is on a round board because boxers fight in rounds. I will post the finished piece when it's complete. #mylightwidget

I'm revisiting an old doodle and adding more details: aeronautical chart symbols and more small, medium, and large airplane drawings. I thought it needed more texture through detail. Now I think it's ready to become a fine art print. #nevergiveup #adoodleisaterriblethingtowaste #mylightwidget
