This is the case. you can follow me to space. but in my cave. you´ve got no wave.
keep it simple. wearing a vintage vest, I hided the buttons and added the belt. it has a more interesting silhouette that way. background.space,beautiful space, inspiring, it is crazy how we are just floating in space. its rare i swear, just take some air.
I was doing transfers on canvas, which was going to be a jacket. Then the accident occurred, a 1 litter can of acrylic black paint fell all over it. There is no need to panic, although the stain is gigantic. As the spill of black paint invaded my floor I began to think about the current oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. This present situation makes me angry, sad, and preoccupied all at the same time. For such I decided to use this accident for an art piece. If paint spills so quickly over my terrace in just five minute just imagine the damage the sea is going through. I don´t think many people realize the severity of this event. Short term we are looking at terrible consequences, but this fall short for what is to come. STOP OFF SHORE DRILLS........in the canvas i am also writing things that come to my mind when I think of the oil spill.....some such as:.....the fish will DIE because we LIE........................who to blame? BP may be the company in charge but we all demand oil.

originality. it does not exist in a pure state, but there is a vast difference between being influenced by somebody´s work and copying their work. sadly i had a case of my own, this lost girl (i suppose), began to copy my work, and eventually even my signature, at first i felt angry, now I just feel sorry that she is so lame. Originality is not to invent something out of the blue, it is a process, there is no timing, either too long or too short, it requires dedication and experimentation. All creations have a reference, all the five senses participate. In visual arts, everything I see is an influence, it is not what you see, how many things you see, it is the perspective you see it with and how you
canalize the different influences into your own and unique perspective.
