This is another one of my Alice paintings. When I was posting it to instragram, I had to climb on a chair because I had already hung the painting. Most of all the paintings in my house are hung with Velcro. We are not big fans of opening holes on the wall. The main exception to this rule was the painting mother bought from her friend. We gave it a price centerfold in the house. As for my paintings, as of now, I am only limited them to my bedroom. Once the room gets filled with paintings, I might have...

This is another one of my Alice paintings. I am not too certain about it now. I guess I could make space look prettier and shinier. He said that why make a realistic space, with an unrealistic scenario. I think I should have added more glitter into space. Then again, by the time I changed my mind I had already added the Varnish.

All commercial canvases come with gesso, so they are ready to paint. The surface of this canvas was a little blocky, so, when I added the paint, it looked a bit...

So, he was there to fill a void created in the family dynamic. My mom was visiting a friend at  a farm. While there, she saw the dog raising a fuzz, barking all the time. The owner was complaining about the dog, and how much he hated it. Mother on a whim said that if he did not want it, she would take it. This is how we ended...

I first heard of Tardigrades through the documentary Cosmos: A Space Time Odyssey. This little critter is one of the many micro animals that live in a water droplet. I thought it was interesting the story about it. He can survive in out of space, and does not need to eat food for a year.  I decided one day to do an acrylic painting about this little critter. He is dreaming about his time in space. I placed him inside a water droplet, since he spends most of his time there. The painting itself did not take too long. I...
