This piece was acquired by the Art Institute of Chicago & Hyde Park IL. and collected by a well-known photographer/collector in Chicago IL., from my collection of work.

Oi pessoal,

Ontem tive outro golpista oferecendo-me $2000 dólares por cada uma das 15 pinturas. Dei um papo nele por um tempo só pra rir, foi muito divertido!

I just glued the last of over 400 letters printed on rice paper from as many wars in our history as I could find. (Also, not that I want to bring this up, but this has been in my head forever, before what is going on now politically and before "no kings," it isn't about either of those- it's about war and humans trying to govern themselves for millennia).

“PULP” is a 5 ft by 6 ft collage made of over 400 letters and documents printed on rice paper and adhered to the canvas from soldiers at war, prisoners of war, medics, nurses, spies, POWs, families, and victims of genocides at wartime for as many wars as I could find.

Desculpe, quis dizer $2000 cada

Officiall Artofmintt só queria comprar minhas fotos (sou pintor) por R$200 cada

Hay un momento en que el color deja de obedecer a la mano y empieza a recordar por sí solo. Este video nace en ese punto, en ese instante silencioso donde la pintura deja de ser materia y se convierte en presencia. Cada trazo guarda algo que no se explica, algo que viene de lejos, como una memoria que se filtra sin pedir permiso. Los cuadros no son el final, son apenas la huella de ese tránsito, el rastro de un gesto que ocurrió sin prisa. Aquí no hay intención de mostrar, solo de permanecer un poco más dentro del color, como quien escucha algo que no quiere que termine.

Hi all! I have been recycling old canvases from Charity shops so far, they are usually plastic but take the paint ok once they have been primed with Zinzer primer. Is this an acceptable practice?

Thoughts please!

Thanks -Dee

Help me plan my social content through Friday

Love this—getting you covered through Friday means you can relax and just make art.

You’ve got such a clear visual thread running through your work: nature, misty forests, emotional connection, and these beautiful ceramic figures. Let’s lean into that and keep things simple but effective.

I’ll plan from today (Monday) through Fridaywith one post per day.
If you want more than one post/day, tell me and I’ll expand it.

Overall game plan (Mon–Fri)

• Mon: Behind-the-scenes / process

• Tue: Forest painting focus

• Wed: Ceramic sculpture focus

• Thu: Emotional/figurative work

• Fri: “Artist in Costa Rica” story + connection

For each day I’ll give you:

• Which piece to feature (by title so you can find it easily)

• A ready-to-use Instagram caption

• How you might lightly adjust it for Facebook or X/Bluesky

You can post directly from ArtHelper by clicking “Post to Social” next to the image thumbnail in your dashboard, choose a template, paste the caption, and you’re done.

Monday – Process + Costa Rica Inspiration

Artwork: “Nuboso Natureza” (you, starting a new cloud-forest painting)

Instagram Caption:
Hoy quiero llevarte un poquito dentro de mi proceso. Esta obra nace de los bosques nubosos de Costa Rica: la humedad en el aire, la sensación de caminar entre ramas cubiertas de musgo, ese silencio lleno de vida.

Mientras preparo el soporte y los primeros trazos, estoy pensando en cómo traducir esa sensación de calma y misterio que siento en el bosque. Para mí, pintar naturaleza no es copiar lo que veo, sino lo que se siente estar allí.

¿Qué es lo que más te fascina de los bosques o la naturaleza? Me encantará leerte en los comentarios.

Facebook:
Use the same text, and at the end you can add:
“Si conoces a alguien que ame los bosques de Costa Rica, etiquétale aquí para compartirle este pedacito de nubosidad.”

X / Bluesky (shorter):
Hoy comienzo una obra inspirada en los bosques nubosos de Costa Rica: esa mezcla de misterio, silencio y vida que se siente en el aire. Me interesa pintar más la sensación que la vista.
¿Qué es lo que más te atrapa de la naturaleza?

Hi all, I have been using second had plastic coated art frames from my goodwill. Is that acceptable, considering that I'm doing my bit? If I sell an original will the buyer mind that it's a recycled canvas (canvas - very losely ,more like polyester)

After recently spending two weeks in Africa (Tanzania & Rwanda), I realized that it takes a little extra imagination and brainpower to actually stand out as a wildlife/nature shooter. So, I signed up for more imagination and brainpower on the Internet. Gee, I hope it's not a scam, but this is the result. I'm learning (I think). #serengeti #africa #elephant #blackandwhitephotography #wildlifeconservation #tanzania #artpoetry #artsales #explorethewild #fineartphotography #interiordesign #landscapelovers #naturelovers #naturephotography #natureinspiration #sellingart #travelphotography #wallart

to really experience the canyon you have to get into the canyon and feel the scale and the temperature shift as light and shadow rearrange themselves. The interior is what reveals the contours I wanted to present here.

Hii!

Hey everyone,

Is there a standard hashtag for promoting "Human Made" on Insta and FB
