This weekend, my wife and I got to be a part of a very cool night hosted by a local coffee shop called Rohs Street Cafe. We both painted up front while the bands performed. It was a blast! Proceeds from both the sale of our pieces as well as the bands’ cd sales went toward Stop Traffick Fashion. Cool music, cool art, great cause. Loved it.
I was actually surprised at how emotional the whole thing was for me. Even hiding behind my digital set-up with my work projected up front, I felt very emotionally vulnerable, and couldn’t help but tearing up from time to time. Enjoy the art, and don’t forget to check out the two bands that played Artists and Authors and Flaregun.

I love it! Sorry I couldn’t make it, I’ve been crazy sick all week and laying low after work to recoop. Anyway, God kinda put this thought in my head after I checked out your painting…….to me it looks a bit like an Angel with a broken wing and then I remembered what the event was for and I thought this is what the Angels must be feeling like when they are held back from intervening to save all the victims of trafficking ( i think they save some from time to time). And then it made me hopeful for the Day when true Justice invades the earth and rescues the oppressed. Yay you for being vulnerable and sharing your gift. You are truly talented!
