The "Refrigerator" Project

"Refrigerator Art" is my new project that will show interested folk my most recent body of work, its an online business card of sorts. I will still be doing this blog of course. "Refrigerator" will pay more attention to the art and less to the "chit-chat"

University of Phoenix Art Show

I’ve been away from this blog so long, it’s turned 5000 without my usual fanfare. 

One of the things that has happen since we last met, is I’m getting a chance to show my art work at the University of Phoenix campus here in Meridian ID. It will be 15 pcs. The art will be for sale, and there will be some extra added surprises. 

Modern technology will let you purchase my art with the help of your Smart phone. QR codes near each piece will let you go to DeviantART directly. Also, I will be showing the Harvey Wood illustrations and for the first time, you will be able to access the entire book using the QR codes next to the piece, How cool is that?! 

But for those of you that can’t be here, I’ve given you the link to Randy Campbell’s blog. Moreover, I’m looking forward to showing the progress of the process too. I’m even going to try some video blogging and post it here.

Kindda Cubism

Inspired by a friends love for abstracts, I set out to do some of my own here recently, but got sick, still I found some of my first cubism inspired watercolors. I liked them. I saw some places for addition, so I brought this one into Photoshop and tried something new. Something I'll bring into future pieces. Nice to be back.

~ Pneumonia!

Looks like I'm going to be off  David Street Art for a while. I'll see you all shortly.  d.

I Suppose It Was Just a Matter of Time!

Traditional hand drawn border

...and one with a cropped border

I don't know where this came from. I rarely draw something so overtly sexual as this. The life drawing piece was sexy, but not naughty. It may seem ambiguous, but no matter, this comes from deep in the subconscious, and if you knew me, it’s clear I need a girlfriend or at least a hobby. Hell I’ll take a date where we talk about hobbies! 

I suppose it was just a matter of time before redheads with large breast crept into my artwork. It will please those who care I haven't dated a single redhead in years (of course we still need to count all the married ones.) Oh ~ that was bad! 

I’m just getting one or two ideas out of my own head so I can work on that project with Griffin. I am amazed how fast the Lady Viking was drawn, almost a personal record.

SoulFireBang and DavidStreetART on DeviantART

I’m starting another project. I know what you’re going to say, but I keep waiting for that burned out feeling too. You know, like a piece of paper that has had an eraser rubbed over it too many times, but nope, nothing yet. So I’m just going to roll with it, and keep doing as many projects as I can until I poop out. 

Wait till you here what it is though. I’m teaming up with my son Griffin to do some art! 

Cool huh?! 

I have him doing a portrait of me in his style, and I get to do anything I want with his series “The 4^th” in my style. He even said he was excited to see what I can do with it. How many Dads’ get to hear that from their kid? 

All this is going on DeviantART. What a great place for an artist to be seen. I’m on there because I can put my large pieces on there and have them printed for cheap. So go check it out and buy something. Search DavidStreetArt and SoulFireBang. Tell me what you think. 

I’ll post when we get the project stuff done. Peace.

I Was Dating This One Girl

I was dating this one girl ~ beautiful! I walked out to my truck one night. There was a Mercer Mayer book tucked under the windshield wiper blade. If you asked me which one now I couldn't tell you.  ~ Oh, I could narrow it down. The one that was mine was signed "I love you! ~ Jen"

Sucker punched with a children's book!

However did she find that weakness? It was all over from there ~ All of our kids grew up on Mercer Mayer. I've given you a few covers to peruse. If you want me to wax all philosophical and stuff, I won't. He is sweet and simple and to the point. Just as it should be sometimes. I will say my favorite cover is "Just Lost!"~ Maybe you can relate.

This was the book title; just in case you were still wondering!
