Reflections
Hello, here’s what I’ve been up to
First of all, hello new Twitter followers! I’ve picked up close to a hundred of you since my last post. I really enjoy getting comments, either here, or on Twitter (If you’re not coming from Twitter, I’m @cleff) and I’ll respond, though it may take me a day to get back to you.
It’s great to be able to talk to so many artists and people interested in art. The art community on Twitter is incredibly supportive, especially the #draw365 crew. I’ve gotten great advice and read many thought-provoking ideas. I’ll mention some specific people who are inspirational in a future post, but if you’re reading this and you want to find some interesting people to follow, check out my Tweets on Fridays for #FollowFriday
I actually have half-written a 2009 wrap up, but didn’t complete it before the end of the year. I’m still going to post it even though it’ll be late because 2009 was my most significant year as an artist. So far. Hoping 2010 is even better. In the meantime, I’ll post out of order with some of what I’ve been doing.
For reasons I’ll explain in my 2009 post, I’m in the process of repainting my reflections series. I have to finish that up before I can move onto the next series that will make up my solo show at the Amberella gallery.
Here’s the latest, that I finished last night.

The original is here.
Also, I’ve started doing a drawing every day. (I tried this in ’07 and ’09, but it should last longer this time with all the Twitter support). Here’s the first 9 (I counted my painting as a 10th).
Hopefully I’ll have that 2009 post, and some information about three big projects for 2010 very soon.
Reflections Series: Rhythm (almost complete)
Over the past couple of days when I could sneak in time, I worked on the sixth painting of the Reflections series, Rhythm. I struggled with this one as detailed in an earlier post, but I’m really liking it now.
I’m going to touch up the fingers a little and I think it’s done.
Then I’ll post a higher quality photo here.
In the meantime, let me know what you think of it, the colors, the pose, what pops in your head when you see it. I’d love to hear from you.
