My Bio
Simply stated, I love art. Making and sharing it are joys of my life. I have never really made the cash doing it, but that is why I have come here to brand myself and make a career out of my passion. I have been in all kinds of art classes since I was a kid ranging from drawing and painting to ceramics to digital arts and photography. I did also go to college for animation and media arts , although I did not graduate due to politics. So here I am now, trying to make it on my own. So tell me what you think of my work and the harsher you are the more it helps me to get better, so don't hold back.
Peace and Love,
Dean

Finally...

Well it's finally here the day I will start my new job. I've been needing work for a while now so that I can get back to doing my own thing, and I will finally start on Monday Feb. 6th.  I have a lot of things to catch up on in my life that I have ignored.  This comes at a very good time for me as I am now mentally ready and back to being my old self again.  The past few year have been rough and I have gone through so much, emotionally and physically.  Great changes are on the horizon and it is truly becoming A New Dawn.  This is a whole new era of my life and I look forward to facing its challenges. This last age of my life has put me throug

Mount Fuji

0 min read
Well I started a painting for my Uncle John (not blood uncle but a close friend of my family) tonight of Mount Fuji.  This has been years in the making.  I was suppose to paint it for him years ago but have not trusted my painting skills until recently.  So I have jumped head first into this endeavor and so far so good.  He had given me a photo of the mountain, or to be geologically correct it's an active stratovolcano, that he took while deployed there when he was younger.  I'm sure he gave up on me painting it a long time ago.  So when it's complete and arrives at his house I'm sure he will be surprised indeed.  He gives me a a hard time ab

Last night I dreamed I was a child living in a beautiful, contemporary, brick house at the end of a long driveway coming from a very serine yet mysterious pond.  My parents where very busy and weathly people who did not have a lot of time for me and my sister though they love us dearly.  I would say I was about 8 or 10 years old while my sister being a few years younger.  This morning was odd to say the least, unlike most mornings my sister and I where left in our gigantic house all alone.  Being at the end of a long secure driveway it was pretty safe for us to be left unattended.   As we said goodbye to our parents, I shut and locked the doo
