Midnight Forest

A piece of CliffsArt history. Midnight Forest, one of my first interweb sales. 2003 maybe? You can see my shoody Photshop work I did back then. It was a round piece.

New work-still working

I'm getting close to done. I had to really brighten the background and darken the fore ground to get the setting sun light close to right. The exhibit opening went well the other night. That was the most people I ever had at once. It was hard to deal with that many people for three hours, but I'm glad to do it. I had a few people who said they would buy a piece, but it looks like one will actually come through. More news on that later if it works out. It's nice to get the compliments and praise, which I had a lot of, but it's hard to be that social for that long. Thanks to those who came out but especially Mary, who traded insults and sharp verbals barbs with me for most of the time and kept me with it. She's a dear friend, but you might think we hate each other if you heard us talk. It's just our way. It's was also great to have Malissa, Tina and Jesse out too.

Here I go again (Not like Whitesnake)

If anybody is doing Gallery Hop tomorrow, stop by the First Presbyterian Church on Market Street and see my Art. If you have a very rich Art collecting friend who likes paintings of womens in woods, please send them my way :) You may recognize this one, I wanted to do it again, but with a Landscape orientation. It's also much smaller. 16 x 20 inches. I started this months ago but got side tracked so I thought I'd finish it. I'm already thinking ahead to the frame I'll put it in. It's a good thing I build frames for a living, it's the kind of thing I actually like to think about.

The Media!

                                               Haunting Waters is also in this show




Trying to spread the word to art fans. Here is my listing at Kentucky.com for the upcoming Gallery Hop. http://calendar.kentucky.com/lexington_ky/events/show/370201072-artwork-of-cliff-sullivan

Memory

I haven't shown this piece in a long time but I pulled it out for the show downtown. It's a large Color Pencil piece and still my favorite work. I titled it Memory.

Natural Beauty

Natural Beauty, one of the paintings that will be downtown during the next Gallery Hop. I' delivered about 13 pieces last week. I even pulled out some oldies like this one. More info coming soon.

Among the Giants

I'm taking a break after preparing the show downtown for the next Gallery Hop so I'm posting a bit of Cliffsart history. This piece is Among the Giants and it may have been my first internet sale. I did this when I was leaving my Space Art phase and had a great photo shoot with a good friend and model Brianna. That shoot changed the way I would paint and set me on a new path I've really enjoyed. This was one of the first paintings from that shoot and I haven't thought about it in a long time. I think it sold to someone in Texas.

Framed!

I titled this one Snowy Stream. I know, names are really hard. I built the frame Saturday. It's a large one, it's 40 x 30 inches and the first image I worked from that I didn't take myself. Well, at least since art school 12 years ago. Probably longer than that, since I was extremely opposed to working from images on the internet. I should really say first year of art school. I saw lots of students manipulating images from the webs and that used to drive me crazy. But, some of them may be full time wealthy Graphic Designers now, who knows. This will be in the next Gallery Hop at the First Presbyterian Church at market street along with other works of mine. I'll post those pics later, but I have a solo show there. Everyone take care and have fun!
