Sarcoidosis is a real crappy deal

So, you may have noticed that I have not been very active. It turns out that I have a very rare autoimmune disease and it has taken a toll on my life.

Sarcoidosis.

It's a scary thing. You should look it up. Apparently a few very famous people have had and died from this disease. Bernie Mac, Michael Clarke Duncan and quite a few others. I am not fortunate enough to be famous, so I am going to surely die early.

I'll be back with updates as I have them. Right now, I am desperately searching for a doctor that will treat me, and not send his nurse in the room, in the most cowardice of ways, yeah this happened, and tell me he cannot treat me and I am terminal. Nice?

Anyway, I will get back on this soon, I promise. I have a bunch of stuff I am trying to get together, but I promise I will be back soon.

Body Painted Beauty of the Day :)

This beautiful young lady is always such a pleasure to work with. She has a beautiful spirit and flawless form. So blessed to call her friend.

Shows coming up!

At the end of this month I am going to be joining a bunch of awesome people for some live exhibits of painting on canvas and people! I hope to make some good contacts and some extra cash that day! I will post pictures, and let you know how it went.

So sorry that I haven't been around much. I have been busy, but busy with things other than art. My life has seemed to pick up speed lately and I'm having a hard time holding on to the handlebars.

My painting is featured in a music video spotlighted by CMT this week!

That's the link to the video featuring my artwork, by Uncle Lucius! I was commissioned by Van Folger, the producer of the video, to paint a scene of chemical plants looming over a house, and make it look like mama painted it. Well, I did it and through the talented efforts of Van and his crew, my painting and even my easel  helped tell the story the video was trying to convey! Yeah!! I feel so cool today!! :)

              This is the painting on the video!

Body Painting Pics of the Day

I'm going to do random entries from now on with body painting pics that I have done. Since this is my blog, they will be uncensored. I assure you, though, that I will not be publishing anything that is smutty. I want to retain my level of trust with the girls I work with, and the future clients I might have.

So, without further ado, Memphis...

Working and more working

I have been pretty busy lately, trying to get a few sculptures finished, and some paintings started. I just got commissioned for a pretty big piece, although the client doesn't quite know what he wants the subject to be :) Love you, Gus!

I'll try and update you more on what's going on with me, and what I have coming up. But, no promises that it will be daily. I get side tracked and then it's time to go to bed! I'm old. That's my new excuse.

Here's a body painting pic for you. Contest to win a body painting session on Facebook.com/HelloDarlingPhoto.

Zombie Heads!!

Working on a new series of Zombie heads that will be finished in plaster and painted for realism. This series was inspired by Bossons heads. I am also taking custom orders, so if you'd like to be Zombified, let me know!

Here's pics of my first custom zombie!
