"Stream of Consciousness" by Samax Amen (03/2017)

Here's a bunch of detail photos and notes about my new piece, Stream of Consciousness.  This one is another example of a piece where I made it up as I went along, not really sure if it would become a "real" piece of art, or just practice...

"Love Seat" a painting by Samax Amen

I was recently commissioned by my longtime friend and patron Cathy Hutchison to create a painting.  Because she is a fan of the way my mind works (and a really awesome lady), Cathy just pointed out a couple of my previous pieces and explained what appealed to her about them, but released me to do whatever I wanted within those loose parameters.

Nobody asked me who the characters were in this drawing when I posted it on Twitter, but I will geek out about my art even if you don't, so here's a list- top to bottom, left to right- of characters in this drawing of teen action hero Darius "Dare" Davidson.

Help me celebrate my 43rd birthday!

My 42nd year of life was kinda rough. My dog died, my transmission died, and my marriage died (in that order).  But I'm thankful for my friends, fans, and family who helped me get through all that. My 43rd birthday is this week (Tuesday March 22nd, for the record), and this year I want to use my birthday week to launch into the most successful year I've ever had . . . And it all starts with you!
