New Store!

Hi everyone! I know I've been absent for a while on my blog. My wife Kayla have been busy working on our new retail store to open in November of this year. Candy & Canvas will be an old fashioned candy store combined with my own art gallery. Located at 202 S. Phillips ave. in downtown Sioux Falls, SD, the store will feature hundreds of different candies! Plus a myriad of unique gift ideas for anyone. My original art will hang throughout the store, plus a gallery to show larger format paintings. I'll have a working studio in the back with ample space for all my new ideas. We'll be posting updates along the way, so keep stopping back for more details. We'll also have a new Facebook Fan Page for the store where you'll be able to print coupons and see scheduled events.

It's a great time for downtown Sioux Falls. Many new business starting up around the same time we are. We look forward to being a part of downtown!

Hi everyone!
I've been super busy lately with a super secret project and haven't had time to paint or post. Sorry for the delays. I'll be releasing some news soon about a big project my wife Kayla are working on. It's been in the planning stages for over a year now. Events are falling into place now and things are going to start moving quickly within the next week. So keep checking in to see tidbits of what's happening....especially for those in the Sioux Falls area.

Got a LinkedIn connection request from an old pal of mine that I haven't seen for a while. John Radack and I worked together at Deals on Wheels magazine as graphic designers many, many years ago. John is a great art director and resides in the Minneapolis area. Please visit his site at http://radackjohn.carbonmade.com/ you'll probably remember some of the commercials he's directed! It was great to hear from him this morning. He turned me on to blues guitar many years ago, and soon after meeting him I purchased my first Fender guitar. John if you're out there...keep in touch bud!

Today's post is titled "Hidden City". Since I haven't painted in a week or so, I posted one of my more recent works. Promise to have some new stuff posted soon!

Thanks for checking in.
