despite being censored last year, i am at it again.

view my paintings at Artvocacy Seattle!

Refugee ArtVocacy is an exhibition by King County artists and performers who came to the US as refugees. ArtVocacy is a way for these artists to celebrate their talents and skills with other refugees as well as with the greater community. ArtVocacy's artists and performers recognize the vital cultural contributions of the world’s refugees and seek to raise awareness of the oppression throughout the world that creates refugee crises.

a few pleinairs from last summer that i've never bothered posting. those of you who've been to the artwalk have probably seen them.

 

"blue heron on alki beach"
acrylic on canvas, 2007

the opening of the art show in nectar was accompanied by live painting. interestingly enough, the day before i mentioned to an how beautiful is a glass of beer against the sun. so i decided to paint a glass of beer, while drinking it. here's what i came up with:

"my first perfect summer glass of beer"
acrylic on canvas, 2008

 

oil on canvas.

yeah, yeah, i painted it from a photo i saw on internet, so sue me.

as i said earlier, if you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong.
