My work is a movement through space and light. My work presents a tension between the vibrancy of the colors fancifully dancing with the light.

Comprehensive Alcohol Ink Tutorial: Alcohol Ink Exploration with a Mondrian Twist 06/06/2023

Hello, amazing artists! šŸŽØ I'm incredibly excited to share with you my latest 2-hour Alcohol Ink tutorial, inspired by none other than the legendary Piet Mondrian. This step-by-step guide is something I've put together for all of us, whether you're a seasoned artist or just starting your journey with this vibrant medium.

I've discovered a unique method to harness the power of these vivid inks and transform them into something truly magical ā€“ a blend of structure and fluidity, control and chaos. Today, I'm thrilled to share with you the first of these two distinct techniques for creating sharp, precise lines that reflect Mondrian's iconic style.

But remember, we're just getting started! šŸš€ I've got another method on the horizon, which I'll be sharing in an upcoming video, pushing these techniques even further. I can't wait for you to join me on this journey as we continue to explore new realms of creativity and push the boundaries of what we thought was possible with Alcohol Inks.

Stay connected with me for more art adventures by liking and following my page. Let's embark on this creative journey together and see where our artistic instincts lead us! šŸ–ŒļøāœØ

I've been experimenting with some new concepts in alcohol ink painting and I'd love to get your thoughts and opinions on them.

I've been playing around with the idea of creating larger versions of these two pieces. I've been inspired by Cubism lately and thought the attempt to contain the flow of alcohol ink would be an interesting concept.

As you know, I typically paint large and I think these concepts could really shine on a bigger scale. But before I start working on larger versions, I'd love to hear what you think. Any thoughts or feedback is greatly appreciated.
I'm not sure if I want to try these on a larger scale yet (4' x 4') or larger.

FLOWER TUTORIAL GONE WRONG! ALCOHOL INK DEMO Time-lapse - IMPORTANT Tip on Your Mindset in Art. 02/09/2022

Well, my flower painting video went totally wrong!

As an artist, you grow and evolve. No one really tells you the things you should really know. One of the most important things I tell my viewers is to always have a practice mindset. Never expect a masterpiece and you'll be surprised.

I started doing art again because I missed doing it.

I got my drawing and painting degree in 2004 from UNT then I went off and got my grad degree in 3d modeling and animation. In 2000-04 I found a love for figurative painting and drawing and hated abstract painting, I thought abstract was easy and never thought of trying it.

Now, I work on the computer all day as a creative director and have been yearning to get back into the traditional art in my free time. Two years ago my sister keep trying to convince me to do an art piece for new her home.

The kicker was that she wanted something abstract. I was struggling with this notion of abstract. After a year of fighting the thought. I finally thought I'd give it a shot. I started to build her a frame and start painting again the difference was I wanted to try Resin which is toxic and not really forgiving.
