More Work In Progress painting and Tie Dye SALE

Woohoo! Made it alive to another Friday.<br />And i got a bit more work done on my current painting:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lucidrose/5932312143/" title="babylon burning- work in progress by lucidRose, on Flickr"><img alt="babylon burning- work in progress" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6132/5932312143_e4a9fa3c02.jpg" style="WIDTH: 365px; HEIGHT: 417px" width="452" /></a><br />I added a very roughly painted ruined city consumed by flames in the background. I am going to play around with it more and see what i can do to help enhance it. I had really liked the background how it was before adding the city in, so had been going back and forth with myself on whether or not i wanted to stick to my plan and paint Babylon burning. I think i am liking it. Perhaps its helped push my intended meaning with the piece. The painting will most likely be titled " The Prophetess of healing." Its about the cycles and balance of life. The ebb and flow of death and renewal. Also expressing that there is pain/trauma in healing and yet the potential of transformation is exhilarating.<br /><br />In other news, we have put all of our <strong>Tie Dye on SALE</strong>!<br />All our shirts and skirts are just $10 each.<br />AND....if you use the following coupon code when purchasing you can get <strong>FREE SHIPPING</strong> to anywhere in the US.

This week Danny and I have both been busy preparing our work for Last Thursday Artwalk on Alberta St which just so happens to be this week. It will be the first art walk of the year and im not exactly sure what to expect in the way of attendance. I guess we will find out. I should have taken photos of my work table since its brimming over with all sorts of art projects but i hadn't found the time.<br /><br />But i did manage to post a couple more shots from my last body painting session:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lucidrose/4455317723/" title="Love Thy Self by lucidRose, on Flickr"><img alt="Love Thy Self" height="500" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4061/4455317723_b8c9f4becb.jpg" width="384" /></a><br />Love thy Self<br />(body painting and photography by Chelsea Rose<br />Model: Ana)<br />This is one of the last poses we did.

She doesn't let anything in the entire world stop her from reaching her goals and dreams.<br />It was a pleasure working with her. what a muse!<br /><br />Its Wednesday and i still dont have a shoot scheduled for the weekend. I do have a model in mind, I just need to find the time to call her and schedule!<br /><br />Over the last few days i have released two more tie dye goodies:<br /><br /><img src="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.132273482.jpg" /><br />Blue Green Orb tie dye shirt<br />100%cotton<br />size: Medium<br />Bust: 38"<br />Waist: 36"<br />hips: 38"<br />going for $20<br />check out the listing <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43292297"><strong>here.</strong></a><br /><br />and another skirt perfect for spring and summer:<br /><br /><img src="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.132528718.jpg" /><br />Purple Jellyfish tie dye skirt<br />elastic stretchable waist band with belt loops<br />side pockets<br />lightly pleated<br />waist: 34-38"<br />hips: 44"<br />length: 32"<br />goin for $20 also<br />check out the listing <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43368131"><strong>here</strong></a><br /><br />So thats about it for now.<br />I will do another blog post on Friday with a recap of how the artwalk went.
