MONSTER’S BALL 8×10″ original framed ink illustration by Michael Foley.

Tomorrow afternoon I will have a table in downtown campbell for their 2nd Saturday art walk. I have a handful of brand new ink and watercolor illustrations which I will be showing
for the first time
.
Many of these pieces have been made the last two days, priced to go too.Some might just make a perfect mothers day gift too. I hope you will be able to come by, say hello and maybe find something you’ll want tot take home while you’re at it.

This started out at the Triton Museum Gala event, the live painting I began. I added a bit
to it since that night. It will be hung at the Kaleid Gallery for tomorrow’s First Friday Artwalk.
Come down and check this with the other new pieces of art I am hanging up.

dealing with daily pressures in this world.

Just added to the illustration section of the website. This is a new illustration I finished today which I will frame and likely be unveiling at the Kaleid Gallery this friday for the next First Friday artwalk here in San Jose.

Hello, it’s been awhile since the last update. Still working on new pieces and handling
other issues unrelated to art. But fear not, I am finally adding more pieces online.

Tonight I am live painting at the Triton Museum (http://www.tritonmuseum.org) for their Gala event. It will be exciting to see what I come up with. I’ll post pictures through the night likely on instagram. You can find me on instagram: @onibatsu

A big thank you to the artists, performers and patons who came out to Two Buck Tuesday last night. I know some were unable to brave the cold weather and come out,that’s okay. I took some little snapshots  last night to share with you. Hopefully we’ll see you at the next one (February 19th).

So we are now in 2013, past all these doomsday deadlines and we’re still here. Maybe these idiots will stay quiet from now on, at the very least a few years. What’s your thoughts
on that subject?
I’ve been shooting more recently and have been updating the photography section.
Here are a few recent shots for you to enjoy.
