death cab for cutie - red rocks

last night i went to red rocks
with greg and mandy... it was a good space and fun time.
we sat near the top row, a chill enjoyable spot.

on the way to red rocks from boulder,
a 25 min drive.

my vans.

death cab rocking out the encore

the worst sentence ever written

Don't ask me why, but i was lead to the Gloria Estefan wiki page.

This page is contains the worst sentence ever written. Read it for yourself:

"Estefan became in the headliner of the open of the new venue of the MGM Grand at Foxwoods Resort Casino, her three-days concerts, including one at the Memorial Day are the last on the United States..."

Wow.

And can you believe she has a number 1 album in Holland? It's like your band being big in Japan.

I had the pleasure of shooting some photos of friends and music producers ian fitchuk and justin loucks while visiting Nashville last year. Look out for these guys in a record store near you... you just might run into a De Novo Dahl, Griffin House, Landon Pigg or other artist's CD and see that these two Nashville sound gurus were twisting the knobs. Don't be surprised, you'll be hearing a lot more from these guys. You can check out my images and their music on their myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/ianfitchukandjustinloucks

day 4: beauty in recovery. now out of paper.

here is the last installment for now, i've used all my paper. this one is a little smaller than my kitchen table. this was was inspired by a psalm... 27, 5-6.

peace.

day 3: beauty in recovery

psalm 125 has been encouraging to me. this was the inspiration for this pastel. notice my feet on the chair... gives you perspective how big this thing is. i like it.

psalm 125
those who trust in god
are like zion mountain:
nothing can move it, a rock-solid mountain
you can always depend on.
mountains encircle jerusalem,
and god encircles his people -
always has and always will...

beauty in recovery

It's been a while for blogging, but it's been a traumatic couple weeks with my health. Thankfully, I'm back on the road to recovery. Some moments great, some still challenging. But God is helping me move forward. If you'd like to know more, just call me.

Here's some stuff I've been doing in the past couple days. Maybe call it art recovery.

The first one BIG ENOUGH TO HOLD US is inspired by a waterdeep song, the second one I AM, THE VICTOR is inspired by finding strength in trial, and the Peter Tosh song of the same name. They're big pieces, and cool like that.

In other news, I am starting an MFA in Graphic Design in June. It's with the Academy of Art University in San Fran, but I will be doing the off-site learning option for the time being. Rock & Roll!

Peace & Love.
