life from paint life from paint friday december 6 2019 summer s last song summer s last song 16x30 oil here we are december and a new post i won t mention my intentions of increasing my post numbers here but i just did welp i won t go on about it at least this painting summer s last song 16x30 is available now contact me for details lately i have taken to pairing my works with poetry which seems to elevate both of them and is very satisfying to me here is a small quote from walt whitman that stood out to me this is the touch of my lips to yours this is the murmur of yearning this is the far off depth and height reflecting my own face this is the thoughtful merge of myself and the outlet again walt whitman this year has been a trying one i have left two galleries that represented me and have had a couple of interesting stories but no new representation result from attempts at new places to show my work it s tough out there kids you can be waist deep in a career that you are proud of painting what you like with integrity and just sit in a storage room until you are told that s old work we want new you may have a better chance of success today by investing in front row tickets to a major sports event holding up one of your paintings hoping the camera catches you and that the right eye was watching said event i m kidding kinda artists of new england podcast recently invited me in for an interview here is a link to their page artist s of new england you can also find the link in the links section on my website danielcorey com or searching on itunes and soundcloud had a great time talking with laura and am thankful for her help in getting a bit of my story out there one more thing to mention is my open studio sale happening on my website this is found on the link provided or on my website under works then the specific sale gallery is clearly marked this is to help fund the studio renovations that are much needed so i can stop commandeering half of the living room in the house this old garage has been slowly been turning into a studio so far we have torn down a full chimney re insulated the connecting wall between house and garage added a full new roof patched holes from years of mice vacuumed up 83 lbs estimated of mice droppings the floors looked like everything bagels poured a new piece of the foundation that was missing removed the rickety garage door out and replaced with the french doors shown in picture below next on our agenda is installing a wood stove having the electricity run properly to where it s needed install new windows frame out some divisions insulate sheet rock and finally paint so if you re reading this and would like one of these works now is the time also if you are a professional or well versed in any of these needs and would accept a painting as payment please email me posted by daniel corey at 8 26 am no comments thursday july 11 2019 summertime 2019 summertime 36x36 this poor blog neglected for years now in favor of bite sized instagram and facebook posts i have been looking for a place to ramble a bit completely forgot about here well i didn t forget i just remembered at the wrong times this year started off with an april showing at portland art gallery i painted several beach scenes one example is this one summertime 36x36 painted on a hardboard surface instead of my usual canvas lets all the work show and the impasto stands up nicely so far this summer i have been visiting beaches painting sketching unsuspecting beach goers that are not posing and move consistently it can be frustrating when they move or you didn t get enough info and a cloud covered the sun but also exciting when it works out the challenge reminds me of quick pose at life drawing but the clock is completely random what do you do that challenges you in a fun way in painting or life in general only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly robert f kennedy posted by daniel corey at 6 37 am 4 comments tuesday

it has been a while huh recently realizing that i have not posted for over a year was a bit of a shock i have learned many lessons and painted miles of canvas over the year to ramble about where to begin or re begin first an update about the fire and fire sale having been in quite a pickle financially before the fire the sale helped me get some stability for a bit which was refreshing thank you to all that bought paintings and sent messages of encouragement i did not lose everything in the fire like other tenants in the house but i did have to throw a lot away washing and wiping and re wiping soot off all of the walls off everything i didn t throw away became a full time job for almost two months also finally people are not asking me if i smell a fire in close quarters most of my clothes smelled like fire even after being professionally cleaned good times the house is still being rebuilt and is on its 200th year of existence happy birthday to the ranch used to be a bordello these days i am preparing for two major shows this summer on in june at todd bonita gallery in portsmouth new hampshire and one in july right here in maine at portland art gallery i will share more info and a few sneak peak images closer to those dates i have been focusing a lot on slight color shifts colors found within a mass i have always done this but am trying it a little differently i am excited to share today s quote is a special one to me quote stop searching forever happiness is right next to you fortune cookie posted by daniel corey at 6 11 pm no comments tuesday march 29 2016 fire and fire sale the smoke before it really go going on saint patrick s day in the early afternoon the smoke alarms started weezing their familiar non alarming alarm most of the time these go off with forgotten toast but not this day i live and paint on the third floor of this 199 year old house in the photo being a regular occurrence to have these alarms go off i almost didn t go out to check on the neighbors as i would have to walk around the house due to some snow still on my back porch and ugly blue crocs on my feet for some reason i did when i knocked on one of the back doors then the next i saw smoke rising in between the blinds and the glass on the second so i knocked harder then broke the door in with my shoulder the apartment was filled with black plastic smelling smoke that i knew not to mess with where molly stayed for hours she was shaken but not stirred photo red alison hill i ducked down while yelling in with no response the first door i knocked on opened and i asked him to call 911 i ran upstairs to grab molly my cat my jacket and some real shoes i m not doing in crocs knocking on doors on my way up by the time i tied my second boot the firetrucks could be heard in the distance when i ran back down the front inside stairs with molly stuffed in my jacket the smoke was rising thru the cracks in them it was like a weird old rock video 10x14 everything in the apartment i found the fire in was destroyed and it it didn t fair very well for most other tenants my apartment smelled terrible and looked like a bomb went off everything was covered in black soot and smelled of smoke i have been cleaning constantly since the day after it happened i am very thankful nobody was hurt and i should be back to normal pretty soon thank you rockland fire department so this event capped off me at my leanest time financially that i ve experienced since starting to paint full time so this sale was going to be a regular sale as i needed to get traveling money and find
