Art JournalArt Journal Farewell to The Space Shuttle
I did what has to be my fastest page ever as I did a journal entry dedicated to the final space shuttle launch. The 115F dry weather had the paint drying in seconds instead of minutes, even without the hairdryer! Then to kill some time I did a cartoon gremlin, a quick studio tour and played with the babies. There’s a spray paint moon and space background, a painted sun and earth, and a collaged shuttle Atlantis. We also had a brief visit from @TheAmpleGoddess. It’s always a joy when she brings her family to the studio for a visit. Click Here to watch The Artistic Biker Does Space!

Art Journal Cinco de Madre!
This week’s episode of The Artistic Biker Live! landed on Cinco de Mayo. I thought in celebration of that, I would do a brightly colored villa adorned with tulips. Why tulips? Because the following Sunday is Mother’s Day here in the U.S. and apparently, tulips are the traditional flower of Mother’s Day. Anyway, once I painted the tulip in the journal, I really liked the way it worked with that background. So, I set the journal page aside and did a mock-up painting to see if the tulip would lend itself to my larger expired calendar painting canvases. I believe it will work out very well, and I’ll get some practice too. The first one is already promised to my mother for Mother’s Day. Click Here to Watch This Week’s Episode!

A couple of years ago, the Oklahoma City Zoo planned to update their elephant paddock. While doing so, they sent the girls off to Tulsa so they could enjoy some ”quality time”, and maybe they’d get a calf or two. Last week, the new paddock was completed and the elephants came back to the OKC Zoo. We made a special trip with the kids in the middle of the week to see them in their new home and I want to say, it’s fabulous. It’s King Kong meets Jurassic Park. Danja Lessor of Henna by Danja joined us in studio on The Artistic Biker Live! and demonstrated her Henna artwork for us, including how she mixes her henna from scratch. Then she tatooed all of us, including emblazing “Daddy’s Girl 2″ on Girl2′s arm. I used the henna to make the strip at the bottom of the journal page.
