Grey & Trist




Today the weather was dreary, cold and overcast. Days with weather like this don't happen often around where I live but when the days are grey like today, I like to spend my time outside photographing things in solitude. Here are three of some of my favorite shots from the lonely journey today.

Blocktoberfest Review

"Untitled"

"Many Moons Ago"

"Untitled/In Progress"
12"x12"

This last week I went to an event called "Blocktoberfest" where I got to print two large scale block prints. I really tried to push some things with these prints after only being familiar with block printing for a few weeks prior to the event. I was happy with how they came out and decided to start a smaller block this week.

Of Forests Unknown

"Of Forests Unknown"
Oil on Canvas
24"x36"

Finally gathered up the will to finish this painting I started earlier this year. A lot of my intentions went into trying to paint an image related to some lyrics that I have always admired. The painting definitely didn't turn out how I had always expected it to look in the end.

Here is the image I'm going to carve out of wood that will eventually become a 2'x4' black and white block print for the upcoming Blocktoberfest event being held in Jacksonville.
