I'm getting the itch to redo cogwurx.com. I think it will be like the last redo...just a new coat of paint if you will. Basically, I'm keeping the layout but just going to spruce it up a bit, though I think the code base needs to be cleaned up. I'm also going to be removing the flash nav and animations. So it may not be just a coat of paint that I'm doing...okay, I'm rambling...all this to say is that I'm planning on some layout updates to cogwurx in the near....er...semi-near, but not to far future.

It took me a couple of months, but I have a new painting up. Since I have toddler, I have not real place to do oil paintings for a while so it's digital painting for now. Check out the digital gallery or Facebook for more details.

Been a busy month in yours truly. I spent it working with Judy Cleland of Cleland Environmental Engineering, Inc., an Indiana firm whose area of expertise is water and wastewater engineering.
I designed her new site you can check out a screen shot in the Web Design gallery or just visit her site for the full experience: http://clelandengineering.com/
So go score the amazing Threadless design, Robots! I was promised Robots!, to help it get printed!: http://bit.ly/xq1kGl
So after my design tangents I'm back in the digital painting process. After not looking at the painting for over a month has helped in the inspiration and I look forward to where this painting will evolve to.

Added a new Retro-future art-deco inspired robot vector to the digital gallery. Happy Day! Here it is for your quick view:
I will hopefully have a Steampunk version within the week....hopefully.
I still have my digital painting that I'm working on, but I got side tracked by the robot piece. Once I'm done with the variant I'll be going back to the painting.

HAVE A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!
I hope to have some new art pieces this year!

Been a bit busy of late, most of it due to the life changes as a result of my first child. I love every minute of it, but every minute this year has been devoted to my little girl. As she's gotten older over this last year I've been getting bits of my time back. However, that also means that personal projects have been non-existent. I have ideas and concepts, but nothing too finalized or put down to even show. I'm hoping that as my daughter has gotten to the one year mark I can begin to do art work again. Not sure when I'll be able to do oils, I may be on a hiatus in that regard due to lack of adequate work space. I don't want my kid getting into those paints. :-] So that leaves me with perhaps acrylics or just going digital with my work. So hopefully, next year you will be seeing some new work.
In the meanwhile, I finally put up Copper Amalgamation in my traditional gallery. It's a painting that I've been really proud of and a new direction for my paintings. I hope to continue with that direction as I feel dynamic compositions is a fun concept to explore. We shall see.

Happy First Birthday to my wonderful Olivia!
Due to me having my first child, things have been a bit slow on the art front. I hope to start producing more work soon. But life with a toddler is a bit unpredictable.
