Im still sorta painting.....


Hello again, well with the busy season at the gym, my time has really been limited. I've had a few of my fighters fight a couple weeks ago and they did great. As what I'm painting now I'm finishing a commission and preparing for my upcoming class at the Kirkland Arts Center. Some of you know that I'm teaching a beginning watercolor class and working part time at Daniel Smith and have my gym I own....wow. But with my upcoming class I will be painting more often and updating my blog frequently. Well until next time ....... che out!
