Check out this guy Ty Steinbacher, another Myspace find. His detail work in these oil paintings is incredible. I can't even think of the right words to describe..... Just look!! Remember, all of these are paintings, none are photographs!

9 independence day

This fourth of July was the best I've had in years!!
I have so many pictures, but here are the best.
I love my family so much; it was great to have all my cousins together just hanging out and having a good time! Being with them just made me so thankful to be alive and healthy and loved.
The only thing that was missing was my boo....

6 artist spotlight: val

I found this artist named Val on Myspace. She lives in the UK and works as a decorator and painter. Her work is STUNNING!! I think she's using colored pencils and chalk pastels on different color papers, but she doesn't list her media on her site. Her plays with light and depth are amazing. Anyway, check it out!! (Remember none of these are photographs... they are all her original drawings.)

the next two are progress photos.....

finished product!

happy independence day! :)

5 Do you remember this?

I hate that I am on the computer all of the time now. I find myself looking up old stuff. When I found this it made it all worth it. Probably top 10 commercials of all time.




The best thing is that there was more than one.

Rasheed Wallace is a damn fool.





Added bonus. I did not even know they made this one. I just found this today




I love this stuff
