My first time in an "Artists of Hawai'i" show
now on view at the Downtown Art Center,
Honolulu. Two opening receptions this weekend,
which were very well attended!

It seems that I have revisited some older
pieces a few times this year. This is one
v such "revisit". It was originally a pencil
and color pencil drawing on paper, about
11x14" as I recall. Now it's more compact
as an 8x10 and part of my display for Art
of Pride at the ARTS at Marks Garage this
month.

Artists to put up their current 11th Miniatures show

Street Galleries for their annual and very popular

here is a piece I recently sent to West End Gallery
for their pending Director's Choice show in a week or
so.

This is a recent piece now at
West End Gallery. Called "Metal
Health", it is a portrait of
Kevin DuBrow from Quiet Riot.
This would have to date from
the summer of 1994 when I was
part of the morning show at a
classic rock station. We often
brought in bands to play at this
nearby venue, and I had the
chance to meet, or at least hang
out in the vicinity of some of
them. This is one of the photos
I took that night and finally
worked it up into a drawing.

When I am not drawing or painting portraits
and figures, I also work as an art model.
I think "feeling" a pose helps me better
understand its mechanics when it comes
time for me to draw from life. And as a
nudist, it fills the bill of doing a job
you like! Here's a sample from a drawing
group I posed for earlier this week.

I went to a graduation party last night
that a friend, Nancy, hosted for her
granddaughter. Nancy has a couple of my
artworks in her collection, one of which
caught the eye of two of her friends.
Previously I had met Nancy s friend Annie.
Last night, I also spoke with her sister
Claire, about art and especially about
Patsy Mink.
This year, you may hear a lot about Mink s
Title IX Amendment of the Higher Education
Act, prohibiting gender discrimination by
federally funded institutions of higher
education. It is the 50th anniversary.
It turns out that Claire and Annie s
mother was once Mink s campaign manager
in Hawai i, and they shared a few stories
of those early days. I was
especially moved hearing that Mink and
the manager would often come home at the
end of day campaigning to cry because
of the abuse they sometimes
faced in what was then still a male
dominated culture. The women both
spoke well of my portrait, and I
appreciate hearing their stories
about Congresswoman Mink.

I am one of 20 artists in the group show
"Finding Light" at West End Gallery which opens June 17.
West End described the theme as, Life is
certainly a journey. Along the way, especially
in recent years, many people have faced
unexpected challenges, uncertainty, loss,
and some have found themselves in a dark
place. This exhibit is to help serve
as a reminder that people are not alone
in their experiences, no matter where
they are in their journey, and that even
in the darkness we can find light and hope .
My piece, "Toro Nagashi" is on the PR card,
upper right.

After a long pause, I finished this piece
last year and it was in a show, pretty much
in a corner, last fall. I feel it has
a powerful message that I was reminded
of after the last massacre of school
children this past week. After all is
said and done, it seems nothing gets done,
and we just move on.. to the next one..

it with some acrylic for color.
Sometimes it's an even coat, and
sometimes it's just splayed on.
In this case, the color seemed to
have a figure in there, which I just
worked on to better define.

This has to be one of my longest absences.
My internet service went out Christmas Eve
and was not restored until this past Friday!
The landline was out even longer, since
early December, and I just
ended up cancelling it -- have a cell phone
anyway, which I got my money's worth out
of this last 4-5 weeks! Meanwhile, continued
doing artwork and finished up my participation
in three shows in Honolulu in mid to late
December.
This year, I am happy to say that I am part
of the 2022 Schaefer Portrait Challenge at
the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. This time
I made a self-portrait, and because the
competiton stresses the traditional technique
of working from a live sitter, I set up
my easel next to the closet door mirror
and went to town.
A few years ago, I came across a picture
of the Shroud of Turin and was struck by how
much the centuries old folds of the fabric
had a tie-dye look -- from which the title
sprung.
I went back to that idea when I wanted to
do the self-portrait and found an old table
cloth on which to work. It was finished to
the right size by a local seamstress, and
I had Roland lay on it to make a rough outline
-- like a police chalk drawing on the pavement!
From there, I worked on 3 test drawings of my
face in order to make sure I was getting a
decent likeness. Then I started on the actual
table cloth, and of course, the likeness
wasn't coming at first.
There was a bit of a struggle to get it right.
Then working with an inadequately small easel,
I started to work in the body, a section
at a time. This is the first thing that I did
wrong! Because it became difficult to match one
area to another, so I stopped doing
that after drawing the upper chest.
The second thing I did wrong was to try to
draw the lower body without
taking parallax distortion into account.
Eventually, I had to lay it out on the floor,
look in the mirror, move to the drawing and draw.
Back and forth, back and forth.. The other
aspect that I did a little wrestling with
was just how much "detail" to put in,
and how faithful I was to that "detail".

Oh no, starting with another pet peeve!
I went to an art show yesterday which
reminded me of something that's always
bothered me. It is sometimes very hard
to see the artwork when people stand and
socialize in front of it.
While I understand that is an important
aspect of any art opening or reception,
the most important thing is to see the
work itself. So, if you don't mind,
could you wander off to a more isolated
area to chat that doesn't block any
of the pieces? I'd appreciate it!
Today's piece is an old one that was
much bigger with extaneous things
in the background.
Recently, I realized that the figure
was the most important part, so I
cropped it. I like the result
much better.

First, a comment. I follow misc. art blogs
with the intention of seeing inspiring
art pieces from past to present. Sometimes,
a piece is labeled "Untitled" but in
parenthesis, there is a title? So, what's up
with that? Is it or isn't it?? If you
haven't figured it out by now, I love
coming up with titles and feel it's a
very important part of the piece. It seems
others aren't on the same page as me.

Coming up, there are three miniature
shows that I will have work in. The first is the traditional Matchbox Show at
Cedar Street Galleries, Honolulu.
This is one of the pieces I submitted.

This is a pencil drawing from quite a while
ago. As I recall, the title stems from a
news report I heard around that time.
A person was discovered along a nearby
river, and it was said that they had died
of "natural" causes. It got me thinking,
what are the alternatives -- and I came
up with this title.

This is a piece based on an old family photo

of a gangster feel to it, so I felt it
needed a Godfatheresque title.

This is one of those pieces that takes
a LONG time to develop. I started it
almost 2 1/2 years ago, and dabbled with it
off and on for a least a year after.
In doing some housekeeping, I came
across it again, and gave it a thorough
examination. Couldn't think
of anything else it needed, so..

favorites. And whatever I could roll to fit

This oil painting dates back to 1987 and
is based on a photo I took back in the
70's in Wyoming. The digital picture
comes close but does not fully convey the
deep blue in the sky.

I have shown a number of old pieces
including this one from 1991. It is made
up of 9 separate drawings, starting
with a self-portrait with 5 ducks. It was
a theme that I latched onto, and eventually
framed them as a set. Unfortunately,
I could not transport a roughly 30x40
inch piece, so I took that drawings out.
Took a phone pic, so this is the last
time to see them as originally framed.

I recently digitized the last batch of
slides of old artworks. Today
we revisit one of the bigger pieces
I've ever done -- an perhaps
most conceptual.
This is mixed media on cardboard, and
as I recall, it was a box that
something came in, I forget what.
It is based on a photo that I had
taken at some point in NYC near Time
Square, perhaps in the 80's.
I guess you could say it was "conceptual"
because the homeless were
living in boxes then. The title came
from a phrase my brother used
to say. I remember this was in a show
I had at Mansfield University a year
after I made it.

might be struggling with
in his life.

was a friend of the hostess.
I liked the pose and expression. This is
colour pencil on matboard which I used
to do a lot of back at that time.

This piece was well underway, based on a
vintage photo of two men talking.
I wanted to incorporate something else,
but didn't have any ideas.. Until
I was waiting for The Bus after a quick
errand at my art supply store.
At the bus stop, there were about a half
dozen chickens running around.
Very colorful in the morning sunlight.
And so I took a bunch of pictures,
and you can see the result.

I recently had a final batch of slides digitized
for my archives. (The goal is to get it all to
fit on a thumb drive!) This is a favorite from
the 90's.
The story on this one: a friend found a
Polaroid photo (face down) while
crossing the street. Out of curiosity,
she picked up it and look at it.
And immediately knew it was a subject
for one of my paintings. Correct!
This piece evolved rather quickly as a
result.

Sometimes I don't feel a piece works, and
it gets painted over. Sometimes, I'm
relatively happy with a piece, but over
time, the "magic" is gone.
That's the case with today's work.
It was originally made in 2017, but
lately I felt the portrait part no
longer worked.
So I kept the telephone from the
original, and added a new face.
This was a relatively fast piece
with more painting of the face
than drawing.

post was definitely a fast one! I had the idea for the

suitable picture to work from, and it pretty much came
together in just a couple of hours.

The story behind this piece: I had planned one thing,
and ended up with a completely unplanned result.
This is based on a Roland photo of a [homeless?] man
sleeping on the grassy space between the sidewalk
and the street curb. I tweaked the photo to super-saturate
the colours: a bright blue shirt, and rusty skin tones.
After a detailed drawing, I applied an acrylic wash to tone
the background ahead of painting. But I liked the result
and stopped. It didn't need the colour after all..

So last weekend, I was on Maui for the opening
of the Schaefer Portrait Challenge. I can finally
post the piece that has absorbed a lot of 2017--
painting and then waiting!
The portrait features Roland doing one of this
typical Starbucks' setups: he lugs two bags with
