Here’s my latest equine painting. It’s 36×48″, acrylic on canvas, available now.

The rustic feel is matched with a modern and light handling, bridging the gap between contemporary and traditional. I’m interested in the message of fraternity and healthy relationships.

He is single.

He has a daughter.  He’s a single dad.

He is tall.  6′ 3″ to be exact.

He likes to box and work out.

He likes video games, but never spends enough time to actually get good at them.

He’s a musician and a singer, specializing in soul music.  Yes, a white guy singing soul.  Play that funky music.  White boy.

He digs jazz.  Man.

He likes to cook and watches the food network.

He’s a Christian.  This is his home church.

He likes Dave Ramsey.

He’s a little to the right politically, but still rolls with the lefty artist crowd.  That’s colourful, let me tell you.

He swears.  But usually only when angry.  Not for any other #$*@ing reason.

Liam is active online, and can be found being pithy, or sharing the latest painting.  Sometimes there are stories, sometimes random tidbits of nonsense.  He is also a fan of lolcats.  Seriously.  He enjoys writing, and among other things, referring to himself in third person.

"Ambience"

It’s a large one, too.  At 5′ long, it has quite an impact:

"Together" 2011 installed and looking great

Some lovely folks came by the other day to purchase my latest Equestrian painting “Together”. This husband and wife team wanted to see it in person before they purchased it, and talk about a commission, to boot, so it was very exciting. They drove quite a distance from north of the city and we chatted for a while in the afternoon light in my backyard. They decided it worked for them and I asked that they send me some photos when it was up, and boy did they. I was floored. I mean, look at this place! This painting in two panels compliments their dark leather sofa, the beige walls and copper tiles beautifully. It’s a focal point without being out of place or overpowering. Awesome, guys! Thanks so much!

Check ‘em out.  Available for a limited time.

Yes Really

Wishful Thinking

Abstract paintings that are bright and bold like this just do it for me.  The working title is “No Match For Wishful Thinking”.  Maybe it should be “Wishful Thinking”.  Maybe “The Power of Wishful Thinking”.

See, I’m a fan of animated movies.  Especially ones like “Ratatouille”, that speak of the things that are counter-intuitive to the crap of every day life.  I wax inspirational:  With all the bad news in Japan and unrest throughout the middle East, the recession, our crazy goverment and their posturing, the decline of the family unit… there’s so much bad out there, I say “That is no match for wishful thinking!”

If you’re new to my work, welcome!

It’s been over a year since I pretty much stopped marketing my work online. Life is like that sometimes. A parent passes away, and everything gets put on hold. Things change, and time just keeps on moving forward.

So this is my new website. Seriously, I can’t stand this computer business. It’s gives me grey hairs and a short temper, but if you’re an art lover and you’ve stumbled on my stuff through one of the many ways I’ve put “Liam Jones Fine Art” out there online, then it was worth it!

 Here’s to music and art!
