New Painting..."Octo-Pete"
Finally finished off the first painting of the new year. I'm way behind this year. Trying to catch up and get more paintings done soon but there are other things on my plate. However, stay tuned for all the other images I'll be posting soon.
Let me know what you think.

Snow wrapped in Ice Night!
It's been several days of snow this week that shut down the area. Today we got more snow with freezing rain that coated all the snow in ice. My Townhouse looks like "The Shining" on the outside!

My Art Horoscope for 2012
My Art Horoscope for this new year:
Virgo
August 23-September 22
You’ve got a few hurdles to face, Virgo, but try not to worry too much; you’ll get the appropriate recognition for all your hard work at the end of the day. You’ll have to push the higher-ups to give you the go-ahead for your dream projects, and this may start to wear you down. Don’t give up, though, because once you start to see the fruits of your efforts, you’ll know it was all worth that pain and worry -- and your superiors will, too. Get ready to meet more people who can help further your creative career as well, in really big ways (Steven Spielberg, perhaps? Or Anna Wintour?) Check out all the conferences, workshops, and openings you can, so you can mingle with new crowds and start making lasting impressions. And if you get the chance to fly to India, São Paulo, or Paris for a project, meeting, or just a random getaway, it’s definitely time to pack up that suitcase and hit the skies!
It's from the CCA: Find yours for the new year!
