Please help me to choose one of those ceramic designs for my bathroom walls..
Thanks.

When I was 18 years old I had a piggy disease, it complicated to meningitis. So I've get to the hospital they did me puncture to the spine.
When I came back to school I've had to do some art work for final high school exam.
The experience in the hospital inspired me to create the graphic picture, which I called mind and soul...

The teacher told me to do the second art work for the same theme.
Near the local hospital there is a statue of a man with raised arms. It inspired to me to create the second part of a diptych "Mind And Soul".
Some of the buildings I draw by looking at the cover box of plastic coated playing cards. Some I've draw from my imagination. The mountain's from a computer game we use to play with the friend on "Sega" platform.

At the end of the exam I got estimate of 100 percent.
Of course there was a theory part, but I have also get an estimate of 100 percent.

It was 20 years before.

A woman came to the showroom this week asking if we could provide replacement cabinets for her house that was damaged by a water leak. My answer was yes and scheduled an appointment to measure to see what is needed.
She's an older woman with a very outgoing personality. Her taste is contemporary and she selected our display with gloss white cabinets... because everything in her house is white. Retired years ago, she told me she was in the design business and hand-crafted floral arrangements that included faux palm trees.

I made it to my appointment today and found a disaster in the making. All the furniture was gone, most of the walls were cut from 3 feet and below the drywall was stripped off the studs. Anything that was exposed to mold/mildew had been painted with a white sealer, probably something with the ability to stop the growth of mold.

The place appeared to have been decorated like the lobby of a casino. Mirrored walls, sculptured glass ornaments, artsy-fartsy murals, drapes and huge vases of palm trees. Forced to live in an extended-stay hotel, no one was allowed to be living at the house.
The drying fans had been removed and she was waiting for the drywall crew to return to close the walls so they can continue the restoration process. I measured what was in my scope. Looking around I see her house is on a lake and the back yard was complete with statues and artwork. Probably a place for parties, the barbecue had a canopy and the covered bar area had lounge chairs and outdoor furniture. Certainly a palace for this woman... complete with a hand-painted ceiling of blue sky and clouds!

It appeared the water seeped under some floor tiles and that would be a huge issue to re-tile the entire floor. She's in the stage of negotiating with the insurance company and working with a public adjuster. Something like that could hold up the project for weeks. Hopefully her insurance coverage is sufficient to get her back into her home. From experience, unless she wants to pull from her pocket, many of the custom design pieces will only be a memory.

Her once upon a time palace is in ruin...

The current paint scheme ("Livery" when speaking of aircraft) has been used since the Kennedys selected it for the 1st Air Force 1.
The current AF-1 Livery is referred to as "Jackie's Plane" or "Jackie Blue".

Hello, I was asked to paint a horse by my mom's ex chief, because she has a son who's born in the year of horse.
I didn't knew an exact date - he was born, so I have made two paintings:

First part: "Summer and Winter:"


Second part: "Spring and Autumn:"


Also I wrote a poem, on Lithuanian (my mother language), English and Russian (Cyrillic) languages:


Thank you for attention

The magazine rack at the local Wal-Mart is near the corridor by the registers. On my way out I always notice a memorabilia book about artist Bob Ross. As a kid I remember Bob had a TV show (on public broadcasting) that was as exciting as watching grass grow. My dad watched it in between cat naps!
Bob's art reminded me of the 'starving artists' who would park a truck in an empty lot selling framed murals on black velvet.



The difference was Bob's art was scenic usually with a mountain and waterfall or a lake and a reflection of the moon shimmering over the water. In order to get the shimmering effect, Bob would use white paint at the end. He coined a key phrase "Magic White" to describe the technique that made the reflection stand out in his painting.

From time-to-time someone will reference Bob and his painting skills, usually in jest, but the fact is he had that gig for years and lots of people watched it!
