Work in progress

Working on painting

I will not apologize for not posting in forever. Its been May since i last painted.
My show went very well and then Amazon started selling fine Art. That was two months of spreadsheet hell. So here is the painting I'm trying not to over work

The Least Fun Part of Being an Artist

The least fun part of being an artist: self promotion. 

here's a pic of a painting to look at so you don't hate me too much for selflessly promoting my self. 

See the Secret Lives of Humans online! http://jeanineleclaireinprogress.com/artwork/3187466_Waiting_for_the_Cyclops.html

Here is the talk i did June 9th

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JorJGHOJsQ

I ramble about my art for about 30 Minutes. also, the content is mature in an art kinda way, so if you work at a really conservative job you may want to wait til you get home to watch.
if, like me you are ADD make sure you have a drink or popcorn. sit back, text, tweet and relax.
here are some skip ahead points if you are interested only in certain items.
-The longest slide is 70 seconds long. i added more images then the original talk.
- the first 11 Min are about my early life. sexual adolescences and where i come from
- 1:09.33 there are drawings i did of the opening and the artist talk.
- 11:16.70 post high school i go over my college years
- 12:05.80 Influences
-- 13:08.53 Pafa and i give up on being IN love
- 14:47.63 2005 Buy House, Father Dies, Graduate PAFA, Get Married
- 16:46.70 2006 Start showing at Rodger's and i start talking about my paintings at this point
- 27:28.43 The Secret Lives of Humans - i talk about the current show and some of the works in it.
