Trailer Park Tuesday

Well today I was out at the Trailer Park Festival, Here you can see everyone getting there stuff ready. I'm postering some berlin bench's, and still have to do the tables and finally put some protective coating incase it rains. Other artist are doing there trailers, or painting the surrounding area. Good fun, relaxed environment and people have been friendly. I've been speaking both Danish and English to people, I feel a bit guilty when I speak English to Danes as I'm fluent in danish so there really isn't a point:) Anyways, enjoy!

Happy Rainbow Intergration

Had to do a image for a upcoming calender that deals with immigration in Denmark, my theme was "integration" . I did a blended painting design, which means I cut and pasted images from previous painting I have done, to create a new image. Other then that not to much news.

Fashion

Well it's been a relaxing month to say the least, and a hot one too. For some reason I'm not as creative in the heat, perhaps it's a good thing I live in a northern European country. I did how ever do this fashion illustration for Dansk Daily that covers Copenhagen Fashion Week. You can go to the website and look at the online version if you can't find one on the streets. Often when I do design jobs, it's over email and so I don't always get to see my client in person, this means I usually just ask for basic design information, not know what the client looks like or what exactly the drawings are being used for til it's published. When the final file is sent the contact is broken until the next 'mission' is received. Feels a bit 'secret agent' .

Copenhagen Art Sale/Trailerpark08'

Well I've been on a vacation for the last 4 weeks, so I haven't been doing any updates, but I just had to say if your in Copenhagen head to the ArtGarage this Sunday, July 27th 2008 between 13-18 for some fashion, art, music and bar. Bring CA$H, please. I'm not sure if I'll have stuff for sale there or not, but still head down and support the ArtRebels crew, lot's of other great artists.

One thing I will for sure be apart of is the Trailerpark'08 , it's a Copenhagen art and music festival that will be in late Auguest, lot's of music, lot's of artist's, lot's of fun.

I love the fact there's always something going on.

Then and Now

Here's a b/w drawing, and then how it looks when it's painted. Sometimes it's abit difficult for me to color images if it isn't drawn right, if it lacks areas that can have good colors or to it contains to much white space (negative space) then the over all creation suffers. I am finding it most hard with doing large drawings because I've been so use to doing small compact ones. It's all a learning process I guess.

In other news the The Cheaper Show 8 in Vancouver went well, even though I couldn't attend I got word that 2 of my paintings sold out of 3. It was also a nice feeling that I could reconnect in some way with my old home town. I have a slight fear of being forgotten, I guess that's natural when you've moved half way around the world (I currently live in Denmark).

Cheaper Dick

Well I'm busy working for an upcoming show in Copenhagen, so I've just been painting, drawing, painting and drawing. I also have 3 pieces in a large group show in Vancouver, Canada called The Cheaper Show Number 8.

It will be a pretty big event, and all the art will go for $200, they are even selling Andrew Pommier artwork, I'd love to get my hands on one of his pieces.
