This is a piece I worked on some time ago. Actually the original purpose for this piece was to cover a small window in the front door of my apartment. It has reappeared now on the front door of my bedroom. What do you think, does it help you feel more balanced.

There was high security at the recent Wizard World Comic Con in April.

I have been recently attending several Comic Con events for research on my graphic novel. I have met many talented artists, illustrators and designers; great connections and insight for future collaborations on new works and upcoming shows.

There were and few POP culture heros as well.

The rapidly growing field of illustration and animation, i.e Avatar, has seen a recent explosion in the interest of the workings and technology of this industry.  

I will soon be posting some sample works of my new graphic novel..

Mauruarend Art put on its most recent exhibit and event on January 22, 2010. We had a great turn out, with close to 150 people attending. There was food, wine and good company. Since I was most recently inspired by some history and art work from the far east, I thought that I would focus this most recent exhibit with an Asian theme! I was really happy with the response and outcomes of the event.

Thanks to all those who supported me in setting up and organizing the event! Throughout the event you may have noticed some people in the background taking event photos as well as video which you can see below.

If you had a chance to attend the event or view this video let us know by adding a comment. Your thoughts may help inspire my next exhibit and event.

I was at the Winter Park, Florida Concours d’Elegance Event last weekend. Georgia and Maria are in the foreground helping out. We were handing out free wine tickets for all those who wanted to walk over to the  Art Gallery, Mauruarend Art. I am pretty pleased with the turnout. We had a lot of interest in the Gallery and my new work. There were some pretty nice cars there as well!

I whole-heartedly believe that art is an extension of our very being and one of the greatest examples of our own individual self expressions. I also believe that fine art is something that is constantly evolving through one’s new visions. From the time of some of the well known masters such as; Rembrandt, Da Vinci, and Michelangelo to Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso, and Dali, fine art has continually evolved. Like them, I hope to inspire others through my artistic skills and abilities. I hope that my artistic gift continues to evolve and grow through my own new visions.

I invite you to explore my art and share your thoughts and comment. Maurice’s Gallery
