things...

...lots of new work in progress. Have 5 canvas's and 9 lino block pieces going, with lots of velvet underground and doors blasting along the way(and wayyy to much wine) This weekend I worked an agreement to show some of my art at Room Fine Art Gallery in San Rafael. So for the next four months some pieces will be shown there. Ill try to get some pics up soon but honestly right now, the facebook page is easier for me to deal with and reach people quicker. In fact, im thinking of changing the "interface" link to go to the facebook site instead. It's done much much better for me and I think in todays faster paced mobile times, that is just a better avenue.

In the meantime, my new portfolio is out. You can check it out on the main site now under "memoir" or at http://www.sorianoart.com/memoir.html

new work

lots of new work, and just about have version 1.2 of the portfolio done.

Shine on you crazy Diamond

its been awhile since I really posted anything of substance. sure some art, pieces in progress, but even then I've sort of gotten behind the 8-ball because the new facebook fan page(www.facebook.com/sorianoart). The reality is I have sort of had a smal case of artists block, or at least things not going my way

After 3 or 4 straight pieces that I loved I hit a wall with some new stuff. And a certain night the other day with a run in caused me to, shall we say, get a little wild on a pieces and essentially destroy it. And while thats pretty cool conceptually, its led to diffaculties painting what I see onto the canvas.

Cure for that? New music, and a new process. I downloaded Pink Floyd's "wish you were here" album, and ode to former guitarist Syd Barret, who quite literally fell into madness. The kicker, he was a painter first and foremost. The dark, ambient, melodic sounds and 15 min long tracks were able to put me in a mindset away from rage and more into darkness. And since, things have been working. Late nights, some smokes, vodka, the floyd and paint on old canvas's has led to some new works just being fleshed out. Wait and see.

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun

Now theres a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
