Stratosphere Tower is the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States.

Models and Muses
Beauty inspires me. I’m pretty sure I’ve posted on that a time or two. And I know I’ve declared as well that if I ever found anything more beautiful than beautiful women, that I would paint that.

Beer & Tequila Experience
This was my first beer & tequila experience – okay, not really, but my first, at least with Lee’s at the LVH (formerly the Hilton). And as far as experiences go, this one was great. Like other recent celebration events with libation, Vegas-style, this one was one big party. This well-established event drew a massive crowd of passionate beer and tequila lovers and fans.

Lotus
Art and life are all about birth, rebirth, and beauty. That’s why this drawing is special (for me anyway). LOTUS represents a lot of change for both my muse and for me as an artist. LOTUS tells the story of transformation – turning life’s hard times and challenges into a thing of beauty, and the overcoming of obstacles that can sometimes detour or distract us from true happiness.

Life Cube
The LIFE CUBE is about connecting art and community in downtown Las Vegas and around the world. It’s pretty cool, really. A walk-thru, interactive experience, with murals from local artists, writing boards, and dramatic lighting at night. Artists have been working on the CUBE for the last month or so. I’ve seen it a couple of times as it’s progressed and chatted with artists who’ve painted on it.

Lady Sings the Blues
Saturday evening, Genevieve Dew, the lady with the golden pipes, performed her tribute show to legendary Billie Holiday at the Santa Fe Stations Hotel and Casino ~ Chrome Ballroom, Las Vegas, NV. This lady sings the blues. She’s really more than that. Her Billie Holiday tribute show is awesome. I know Genevieve a little and have heard her perform at other venues, but this one was special.
