The weirdest thing that I have been asked to paint


Here is the oddest project that was given to me. A man handed me a tie and asked me if I could paint it. Of course, I said yes. This is what was on his tie!

Buddy Holly Project

A friend of mine asked me to paint something to decorate the walls of the La Mirada Performing Arts Center for an upcoming play/show about Buddy Holly. I found a few different pictures that I could make paintings out of before choosing the simple outline/silhouette of the 50s icon. Now that I am mostly finished, I need to decide whether or not to step up the style or stick with it's old fashioned simplicity. I will post a picture of it when I am done deciding.

A "Mom Assignment"

Since my mother moved into a new home, she needed some decorations and wall art to complete the "home feeling." She asked me to paint something for her living room, gave me a few pictures for ideas, and showed me the colors that she wanted to have in the painting. This is the painting that came out of that project.
