Back To The Drawing Board

It has been awhile since I have felt like I have created something to be proud of. Well folks, here it is. These next few images have recently been created and it all happened so fast, I think I started and finished them all within a day. Each one is a though I had to go along with a character I am trying to develop more. The character is of course "Kid Zero" my alter ego, or stage name or whatever you call it. I feel like all three of these paintings are current in how I am feeling about things right now, all very positive. There was also another painting that popped into my head as I was falling in and out of sleep one night, I tried to paint it the next day and have been working on it since, not turning out how I imagined. Oddly enough the painting or picture that I had in my head could have been a daydream, but I believe it is a good sign of things to come, so hopefully the painting will turn up, in a miracle. Also I have been working on some other random things, I am learning how to paint on fabric, starting out with a bandana, then working on some ideas on trucker hats. I have never been someone who really draws out my ideas before hand, maybe that is my downfall when I mess up half way through a project. Then again I think it makes me stronger, makes me have to learn faster and just go with my instincts and heart.
"Finding Love When you Stop Trying" 2011.
The title of this painting reflects how it always seems when you stop actually looking for love or anything in life it finds you. It's like the universe is teaching you to just go with it, live your life and when you're ready, pow, there it is. I believe this happened for me, I have always tried finding something where it didn't belong, and when I stopped it hit me, and I couldn't be happier.

"Getting Carried Away" 2011.
This painting is more simple in emotion, basically I tend to get carried away with my heart. I am a hopeless romantic.  So this is just a basic concept, that I and apparently so many others like. It did really well when I unveiled it. I really just love the colors and the smaller and larger image contrast, I will be doing more stuff like this I guarantee. 

"Letting Go of the Past" 2011.
This painting at first I am sure looks bad, or sad. But I only intend good things from it. It is about letting go of all the bad things in your past or anything that you feel has been bringing you down. Everyone has something like it. I used a logo pattern in the background that is a mock of Louis Vuitton's Logo. I have always loved it and it is something I can see me using in the future, so in a sense the picture is all about future prospects.
I would love so bad to be putting work in galleries and going to shows and making a living off of this, but until then this will be my voice. This and all the other media sites. This is my love, and in every way inspired by the ones I love. Kudos to those in my life. Cheers!
