Welcome to the Artistic Biker's Webspace!

The Artistic Biker is me, Jonathan "Blade" Manning.
A treasure troll of a man, with hobbit feet and a sharp pointy head. You may see me traveling up and down the highways of Oklahoma looking for the next place to sketch, paint, sing, dance, write, photograph or simply meditate. I have begun a journey that once set upon, there is no turning back. You can share in my blunt force journey through the art world on my weekly U-stream broadcast
The Artistic Biker Live!

Thursdays from 6-8p central

Also, check me out on Teh YouTube!
You can "LIKE" me on Facebook!
And on Twitter, I'm @BladeTheArtist




Art Journal Prayer for Rain

August 7th, 2011

The Artistic Biker Does Rain
Whether its the lack of rain or the fact that so many beautiful, sexy clouds have been hanging around for so long, I have lately had a fascination with clouds. I made a spirally cloud stencil for a background then used Tim Gagnon’s simple cloud technique to paint a few clouds in the foreground. There’s an ancient belief that if you concentrate on something while you are creating paterns, the energy will be released to create what you were concentrating on. This was my prayer for rain.
