One careless mistake and I lose a finger or an eye. Yet the pull is strong. I want to paint, lose myself in the moment, forget time and space, just create. My entire body wishes to do so now, as my mind calls restraint. Leaves me unresolved in my actions, but safe in my body. It is my constant struggle; create from my soul, or create with my hands for other souls. I generally do the later. Not sure if that is failure or success.

A few days later I looked through those photos. What I found was creepy, at first...<br />

...knowing my home was built in 1920, I had often wondered about the spirits that had lived here. I believe I captured one. I don't know who he is, or if he died here, but I wanted to honor him, as our spirits share the same space.<br />
So I decided to paint the spirit in the smoke, a total divergence from my usual style. I think he likes it, I know I do.<br />

<b>THE INSPIRATION</b>: my neighbors amazing giant sunflowers! I took many,many,many pictures from all angles of these babies.<br />

<b>THE CHALLENGE:</b> A TRIPTYCH! I wanted to do this as a series of 3 paintings, done as one complete image, so I build a cradle to hold the pieces together.<br />

<b>THE SKETCH: </b>I needed a starting point, using the pictures I had taken, I quickly roughed out a layout that would allow me to space the paintings so each one could stand strongly on its own.<br />

<b>END RESULT AND GETTING THERE:</b> For some reason, I decided to try out some black gesso as a base, instead of white. I thought that it would help me with the overall effect of the seeds in the end. I had to buy a white water color pencil to block in my rough idea from above. Originally this was to be a full color piece, but the white on black got me thinking, so I took a walk that night to ponder, walking past the sunflowers by moonlight, the idea hit! I have been working on it for 4 months now, and finished it last night. Though am not sure how to sign it. Does one sign each piece individually, or spread the signature across the 3 pieces???? I don't know.RobertIveshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04954595338614565774noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103485765530835066.post-79391342478671469152016-07-16T19:34:00.001-07:002017-02-27T22:40:55.110-08:00Wood: creating the first part of my grape arbor.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Time to get away from bicycles and trees for awhile. So I wanted to play with glazing again and to challenge myself to try painting another set of sea horses. So here is the beginnings of that process after 3 sittings. Each sitting was about 6-8 hours. Can't wait to see how this one turns out!</div>

It has been a tough year for my life partner Ann. She always wanted me to paint her, but I don't think she was expecting me to do something like this. It is the hand that she has had and will have more surgery on this year. The hand I hold and kiss. The knot represents one of the screws in that delicate appendage. I plan on holding that hand through all seasons.RobertIveshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04954595338614565774noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103485765530835066.post-62914228656525518812016-04-06T17:40:00.001-07:002016-04-07T22:25:52.057-07:00THAT IS A LOT OF BIKES!I have all 8 bicycles back in my possession, as I am going to have them all made into full size giclee prints this month,separately.

Got the blunderbuss finished on Halloween Day, just in time for a fun night. It works with a sustained ray, or a single shot ray. I have packed up the steampunk tools and bits n pieces from the living room for now, as they don't go so well with my new puppy, Hammer.RobertIveshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04954595338614565774noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103485765530835066.post-75910255637957044682015-10-17T12:14:00.002-07:002015-10-17T12:14:49.299-07:00Steampunk Ray Guns in the WorksEvery once in awhile I break into my treasure chests of old parts and pieces too see what I can make happen.

Add a few working parts and trick out with a little clock bling, and presto!<br />

Adding five new pieces to the Ride Series, I am considering doing a few more still, the varieties seem endless. I wanted to add a touch of reminiscence to the series, and so, tricycles of course! Taking us back to that first ride that sparked the adventure and freedom we find in riding.<br />

It could be because it is spring time and they are everywhere. Especially when you are driving, they are either heading at you or right in front of you.<br />
<br />
I have always loved bikes, ever since I was very young. My brother and I used to build crazy bikes from parts we found in the dump outside of Fort Nelson, using back tires for front tires, trying different forks on different frames, and getting them to work.<br />
<br />
So I decided to create a series of bicycle paintings that took me through a few bike stages I had in my youth. Yet I wanted to use that head on perspective. So I went for it, with the thought of four paintings side by side that would make up a set. I finished them 2 days before the F.A.S.T. studio tour and was able to cut the frames, stain them and put them together the night before the tour.<br />
<br />
The first person through the door purchased the entire set. Everyone who followed was a little put out.<br />
<br />
Do not fret people, I have only begun down this pedal powered road and see new images on the horizon.<br />

Stop by again next year, the Koi will be bigger, the plants lusher, and of course, there will always be new works for you too see.<br />

What began as a sketch and then a small sculpture is now done in full marble and installed and running at the Berwick Retirement House on Shelbourne and Feltham, right here in Victoria. My little sculpture traveled all the way to China, where it became this giant marble piece, which was then shipped back to Victoria. Obviously in a much bigger crate than the shoebox it left in.<br />
