New Humming Bird

This 8x10 mixed media piece on wood turned out beautifully.  It features a brightly colored jewel like humming bird all up in some daisy's business.  The bird was drawn from a photo taken by a friend's Costa Rican Jungle adventure.  Shannon, thanks for letting us use your fabulous pic!

The original artwork is currently hanging at Bliss Salon, located at 2845 Wyandot Street
Denver, CO 80211.  The 8x10 mounted print of "Humming Beauty" is available in our Etsy store.

Commissioned Pet Portraits by Derek Cadena

The little painting with the Boston Terrier (her name is Phoebe) was commissioned by a friend and Gallery Owner in Delaware.  I have painted three of his Boston Terriers.  Mirabelle is the most famous of them, she was recently featured in the latest image of Brent's Fruitville Girl Series!  We'll post about that next...

The other dog is Maguire, a pretty chocolate labrador.  This painting is 24" and has quite a bit of paint on the canvas.  I had a lot of fun with this piece, even though I had to paint with one eye, due to a brief loss of central vision in my right eye (C.S.R.)  Totally sucked!  However, my vision has returned after 6 weeks. YAY!

"Eloise" A New Oil Painting by Derek Cadena on ebay

I'm finally back in the studio after being sick for a week. All the cold medicine slowed me down a bit, however the "meds" kept my brush gleefully loose. This female nude oil study turned out very cool... I think she looks a little sickly, with her pale gaunt face and that vacant stare. Someone should put a shirt on her so she doesn't catch a cold!
