fall is running towards me, i'm ready to feel

I feel the sky about to open up
And since my world feels upside down....
I'll be falling out of it now
onto what's yet to come
remembering that we never expected to be where we are now...a year ago.
and i'd be okay with going back to years ago
but not if i'd have to go through it all again
ohhh because the things i went through already
revisit me far too frequently
and what i wish i could have more frequently
won't visit at all.
if only i could teach gravity to let go
i'd instead be falling into the sky.........

oooooooooohhhh - WWWWWWEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeee

I'm very excited!


I am working on a project I have postponed for quite some time now.



A few pieces of my artwork SOLD at the "Art Of Fashion" show @ Webster Hall NYC



So I now have the drive to get into my Zodiac Creatures astrology series. I typically do portraits - close ups on faces - but sometimes venture into full length, which i actually aesthetically prefer to draw because I can get into accessories and more body parts than just the face and hair. Don't worry....my trademark detailed hair will still be apparent. I feel I've studied astrology enough to get a very good feel for what the exaltation of each sign personified would be in my artistic language.



I had written out detailed descriptions for each zodiac "creature" a long time ago.


 
 


They will be 8.5 x 11 but full color, maybe some type of embellishment.



Also, I know it's silly to quote someone from a reality TV show but I really felt this captured what so many aspiring artists/designers feel:

 
"I know I have something to say...and I know the way I say it might be a different way.  But my voice just gets louder with every struggle I encounter."
(btw, someone thought they saw this guy - Melvin from the newest PR - at my art show, lol)
PHOTOS FROM THE ART SHOW COMING LATER THIS EVENING!!!
