Looking for a change of scenery? Check out the CNY BLOOMS show.
I helped some artists set up today and it was pretty much like walking into Spring. They were setting up full fledged gardens, with fountains, there was some art getting set up, there will be demos going on and art on display by the Skaneateles Artisans.
There will be a painting dog portrait and a stained glass demo for sure!
See the CNY BLOOMS website, to get more information.
It’s right around the corner from Variety Studios headquarters. Check it out at the Oncenter Complex, 800 South State Street, Syracuse, NY 13202.
11 days until Pittsbirds as I’ve been calling it. I will be showing my ever expanding series entitled ‘birds’ in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Saturday the 20th.
There will be work from 15 different artists on display, work in all sorts of media & available for purchase. Five bucks to get in which includes a free beverage.
The name of the event is ‘Art Bash’, in addition to the artists, there will be music and a pretty solid representation of variety studios and friends heading down. It’s going to be pretty awesome, check it out if you’re in the Pittsburgh area or feel like a destination for a road trip!
I will also have prints available in addition to the canvases and wood paintings!
This past weekend was the 24th Annual AM-JAM TATTOO EXPO in Syracuse/Liverpool NY, where Winky Dink Ink’s Bobby Ciffone and Matt Truiano participated in the festivities. It was an impressive convention that I expect to attend every year from now on. So many talented artists from all over set up shop at the Holiday Inn with tattoo enthusiasts mingling and getting tattooed everywhere you turned.
I’ll be showing my ever expanding series of birds with the newest fuzzy little guys and prints available for purchase! Check it out at Mr. Smalls Jazz Club in Pittsburgh, PA.

Light paintings have been around for years, people create long exposures and paint their own picture using LED’s, flashlights and other illuminating tools. There are numerous amounts of videos out now showing light animations that would blow your mind. Plus I love some stop animation as you already know.
It’s all about what you can do with what you have, and Peter Callesen recently started to mesmerize people with his brilliant paper sculptures. Read More…
An architect friend has been working with Joel Fitzpatrick, rumor is there should be a new site released soon with some of her work on there. Thought this was a pretty cool stop animation project…
It’s also been a while since I checked up on the Cracker Jack Gang. I hadn’t seen this one yet, check it out.
Advertisement is key to getting the word out about your business and what better way to place your mark on a billboard or automobile. Now-a-days you see company cars driving around with vinyl stickers advertising their business, or buses driving around in cities with ads plastered across the sides. Looking around the web I found a great ad for the Copenhagen Zoo in Denmark.
The concept and artistry creates the illusion of this giant snake squeezing the life out of the bus which would have any pedestrian standing in awe at the site of it.
Created by Packsaddlled Y&R and an artistic director Peder Schack.
Kids Love Peace was created by ICY And SOT from Iran, Tabriz using 6 layers of stencils, giving the piece and extremely lifelike feel to it. I’ve seen a few stencil art works and I am impressed by the precision and detail in each stencil which makes it look like someone did this freehand.
