re: 200th post!


hello friends, fans, foe and lovers, as well as gamblers, boozers, sinners and winners!

this is my 200th post of the year!

yay!

i knew i could do it!!!

thanks for believing in me and my art and even being interested!

if you ever want some art, contact me and i'm sure we can make a deal!

in the meantime,

the image above is one of my father. the only image i have of him.

i made the art to only start making sense of our complicated relationship and getting over the abandonment issues i had with him. one start in the long journey of life and forgiveness.

until next time lovers,

re: remembering those in the spirit world.....


above is an image of my daughter and her 99 year old grandmother, a few days before my grandmother passed into the spirit world. i'll never forget my grandfather talking to me, in 1982, not long before he passed away, that he had to leave to make room for a new life in our family. that just happened to be my younger brother tim. it was heavy. for a long time after that i was always nervous when someone was being born in our family. though i'm sure that wasn't the intent of my grandpa telling me. what he was really saying is that it this was part of the natural cycle of life.

this image is my way of making sense of it.

re: one more new piece of a.........art.......

hello sinners, winners, freaks and lovers,

i was going to try to break 250 posts on my blog this year, but realized, that was too goddamn ambitious, and not realistic.

plus, i needed a break, my brain can only handle so much shit and abuse. i've been busting my ass since march of this year on the road, and it ain't easy! sure, some people think being an artist is a piece of cake, sitting in your lonely tower, creating new stuff for the world. but it ain't like that at all. there's about 30,000 km worth of hustle each year that goes into being a "professional" artist and that's a lot of cross country trips and airports and layovers and skybars and workshops and exhibitions and meet and greets and art juries and satanic presentations and festivals and conferences and interviews and whatever over and over again until you really puke your guts out. at least 150 times a year. no shit. really. it's just that simple.

AND THEN, you have to be ON every single fucking time. because god forbid, that if you are not ON that one time, people will totally shit talk you, blacklist you, blackmail you and treat like you are an intestinal parasite. because they are not out there on the road slogging it out like you and don't know what it's like crisscrossing the country like you do to pay the bills on top of everything else you do like being a mentor, a community leader, a father and so on.

anyway, i digress, and what i meant to say, is i've got some more new art for you, and new music coming soon, so enjoy! dig in! feast your eyes!

until next time lovers, sinners, and winners,


cb.


hello friends, fans, foe and lovers,

hope all is well in your wood of the necks. things are fine in mine, but i'm bored as hell. haven't been doing art lately, self-imposed exile, but i'm back at it and excited.

and i'm looking for a drummer. someone who can play decent heavy stoner rock style like below link.



in the meantime sinners and winners,

enjoy some new art.
