Look what I found today in the Hudson… wrote a song about/for it.

This is the first entry of my new project: the Tuesday entries.
Every Tuesday I will post a new video of a song/piece of music accompanied by an animated video.
It can be older songs, brand new songs, covers, little bits and pieces of sounds- I don’t even know exactly yet- it will be inspired as it goes. I am just excited to take on a challenge and learn to make better video’s.
I never sit and wait around for inspiration- I believe it comes as you create. I have written so many new songs and painted so many new paintings over the last year and I think that directing them into a weekly entry will push me to finish things and send them ‘out there’. Share them instead of locking them up in a computer.

This first one- a cover by Manu Chao- one of my favourite artists. Always loved this song and its total simplicity. I painted the backgrounds and raindrops especially for the video. The moon and stars [planets?] were barrowed from my painting “Prayer”

Acrylic on canvas 9×12″

I have  a piece in an art show at Charmingwall gallery in the West Village, NYC.

The opening night is on Friday, August 6th [info on flyer below]

I submitted a triptych for this one, they are 3 6×6″ canvasses of a New york skyline.

I will be at the opening, join for a drink and some art viewing if you’re in the area! All the pieces from this show will be up for the whole month of August.

These are a selection of the earliest paintings that I did.
I started painting with acrylics in this period in Nashville. They were shown at small exhibit places in Nashville, some sold, some are still available.
