The Goose Tamer is a new mixed-media acrylic photo transfer original that Brent and I both worked on. We showed this Joe for the last First Friday art walk. Brent spent a day at the park rolling in crap to photograph the image that was used to make this piece... I hope you like it. Mounted 8" prints available on etsy and ebay!

A Rainy Day Drive - Brent Rodgers
I love Spring! The cloudy wet cool mornings that glow with rich green plant life are some of my favorite moments of Springtime. A Rainy Day Drive is the latest in the Fruitville Girl series, illustrating that perfect moment. I imagine she is zipping down the road, rockin out in her VW with not a care in the world. Check out her ad on etsy here!

2LF at CoArt Gallery in Denver - by Derek Cadena
If you're just visiting or you live in Denver, you have to stroll up and down Santa Fe Drive's art district. First Fridays (every first Friday of the month), are Denver's busiest nights for art gallery patrons and collectors to see what's fresh and new.
We have joined CoArt Gallery at 846 Santa Fe Drive, between 8th and 9th street. We will have new works hanging every month, and there are 20 more artist members, so, there's plenty of art to look at, and buy... Come on down, enjoy some refreshments and help support the arts, and the artists!

The March Harvest Oddity - By Derek Cadena
Last weekend, after the snow had cleared and the ground thawed, Brent and I pulled some forgotten root veggies that had been sown last Spring. The parsnips and carrots were boiled together and pureed, it was delicious.
One huge beautiful freakish parsnip was saved from the boiling pot, it was a perfect subject for me to paint! I even dressed up the still life set with draped red fabric, creating a proper stage for exploiting my subject.

Joe and the Sisyphean Orange Project - By Derek Cadena
Joe is sick and tired of hauling that damn orange up the mountain! He's only got one good arm...
I really enjoyed working on this little painting. For the still life, I used a rock from the front yard for Joe to climb, and then I had to prop-up a rather juicy orange with a chopstick (not painted). It only collapsed once.
This painting is on a 6 x 12" panel and comes with a black frame. See the ebay ad here!
