Today, I went out a bit and got my hair done. It has been an eternity or two since I had the hair looking presentable. It is not due back for a couple of more months. The family has been seeing telenovelas a bit. The garden is looking a little bit more promising with the new sunflowers. The climbing vines, like the sunflowers were also grown from seeds. We might head out tomorrow, to see what life has in store for us, maybe. The day job thing is still a work in progress. The books are also progressing a little...

This is about the last pouring medium painting I ever made. It was made using Liquitex paint. Liquitex has a lot of mediums to give your paintings a little bit of a special effect. As of lately, I have been using the iridescence medium. It works great as a type of titanium white. When mixed with other paints, it lightens and it gives a nice shimmering effect. It is good for making stuff that have a bit of a metallic sheen. I like a lot those little gimmicky type of paints. I this of all of my attempts, this one...

This is a little bit of a mess of mine. I was trying out pouring medium. It did not come out the way I wanted. This is actually the first version that I made. After messing around a bit I came to the conclusion that pouring medium uses up a bit too much paint. If I had a nice surplus of paints, I think I could make a true pouring medium painting. For the moment, this is the best thing I can manage. The pouring medium used is from Liquitex. You can find it in my store. The humans were...

It is tradition that most Catholic painters make a Virgin Mary painting. Following in suit, I made a fancy Virgin Mary painting. I made it during the time of Hurricane Dorian. I wanted the Virgin to move the stupid Hurricane away from the Jamaican people. She complied as soon as I made the silly promise. I followed through it. It is interesting to make a religious painting. I have not gone to church in years. I am not a big fan of it because I actually pay attention. All the rituals repeat themselves. It is part of tradition and all...
