Just wanted to let you all know what I've been up to.  Lisa and I are still rolling.  I've been working a little more in my sketchbook/ visual journal, taking photos on the road, working on notes for my books, and wishing I was off the road and back in my studio.  Last time we were home I was able to hire a nude model and had the worst photo shoot EVER with her.  The sun disappeared behind some afternoon rain clouds and my lights were no substitution.  Out of over 500 photos,  about 50 turned out decently.  I've decided to put my nude photography on hold until we are off the road and home for good.


Lisa and I shot some great photos in the NV desert recently.  I brought a tri-pod along and finally made some use out of it.  I am planning to post a few new photos when I get some edited.  Recently we stopped by the San Rafael Swell/Castle Valley rest area in Utah off I-70 and I shot some nude self-portraits using the tri-pod. I am seriously thinking about posting some of them.  I told Lisa that a few turned out so well that I would consider printing a few, framing them, and putting them up in the house.


As always, I feel that I am always behind on projects and come up with more and more great project ideas which I never have time to work with.  I have a GSD (get shit done) list written on a post-it note taped to my laptop's keyboard. I am trying to make progress as I find time to.  I've been avoiding Facebook, which has to be the biggest time wasting website ever created!  I haven't uploaded anything new to my Fine Art America page in ages { [link] }.   Still no print sales over there either… bummer.

Here is a new artist I found here on dA recently: Edmond Thommen    Here are two of his works that I especially love: [link] [link]

With my next post, I'll try to list a few more artist I've found here on dA and elsewhere on the net.



So what is new with you 3 guys that actually read my journal posts?

Drop a line.  I hope all is well!
