My life is f*cking awesome.

One week from now I'll be at the play with some of my closest friends. Then the day after, I get to go to a sweet housewarming/birthday party for a new friend who I really like. All of this happens in Vancouver, which is a shockingly beautiful place.

The set designer called me today - all the actors and the crew are really excited about and appreciative of the paintings. They are more than set dressing, they are integral to the plot, so the mood and execution of them is really important to the success of the play. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it all works. Photos of the set will be forthcoming.

Tomorrow night I'm doing another charity painting performance at the Art Gallery of Calgary. Kind of crazy, but in the last three years my painting donations have raised $30,000 for charities. I'm pretty proud of that.

Here's a recent piece:

Realization, 48" x 72, A on C, '09

See you soon, Vancouver people.

EDIT - Almost forgot, I'm also saving up for one of these, but in white. It will make drives over the mountains a pure pleasure.
