LAST ART OF SUMMER

WELL HERE IS THE LAST PAINTING OF THE SUMMER. MY PAINTS AND BRUSHES ARE IN BOXES NOW TO BE MOVED. I HAVE BEEN PAINTING LIKE CRAZY AS YOU CAN SEE ON MY BLOG. THIS PAINTING IS INSPIRED BY A LYRIC ON THE NEW WILCO ALBUM WHICH I AM CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH. IT'S GOING TO BE A GIFT FOR A FRIEND OF MINE WHO IS TURNING 30... SSHHHH DONT SAY ANYTHING-IT'S A SURPRISE.

NOW I HAVE TO SWITCH GEARS AND ENJOY SOME DOWNTIME WITH THE FAMILY AND GET RELOCATED TO COLUMBIA, SC TO START A NEW TEACHING GIG AND SET UP A NEW STUDIO. I AM SO EXCITED FOR A CHANGE.

KEEP CHECKING IN ON THE BLOG AND SIGN UP ON MY EMAIL LIST AT WWW.ZOOVALDES.COM

HAVE A GOOD SUMMER!

WINNIE--THE MOVIE!

This is a 2 minute animated short made by myself and my buddy Justin Plakas about the angel/devil of a dog I have named Winnie. This piece was just accepted into the 2007 South Eastern College Art Conference Exhibition in Charleston, WV this October.
