Description Here is another of my psychological works. Some may notice my tendency to wildly vary my pieces between light and dark subject matter. Think of it this way, sometimes I paint what I see, others what I want to see.

Sometimes I vent---------ie Something to say to you
others I dream.--------ie Something to show you

I'm a very black and white person. Enjoy!

Miguel! How have you been? Was wondering how your show went. That interview with Adam Scott Miller was inspiring, thanks, is he a buddy of yours? GREAT work!

Thanks for your comment bro! Always a pleasure.
Your work "Contemplation" is a very nice piece! Is it a literal self portrait?

Hi Sam, now that you asked, I have dealing with some health issues but I am coming out of it slowly. I just received the paintings that I sent to Japan, the show was very good except that the put my painting in the catalog with the artists from Kurdistan, instead in artists from Latin America which we were only three.
Adam Scott Miller is from a different generation of mine, he is a wonderful young artist. I am in the middle of my artistic career. I wanted to do his interview for the energy art movement and by the way you, might be interested in becoming a member here is a [link]

Thank you for your words on Contemplation, the model is a friend of mine.

All the best,
Miguel

Sorry about the ill health, but I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better.

Ridiculous that they put you in the wrong section, but I'm glad to hear that the show went well regardless. I wish you fame and lots of money!!!

SamFoote In reply to TriciaS [2008-08-14 03:45:38 +0000 UTC]

Could be. It's more of a visual analogy, social commentary, like much of my work. I do love the phycological stuff. I'm pleased you like my quirkiness, and thank you for your compliment. Always a pleasure Pat

Damn shame we cant here accents in type. Love to listen to a women with a British accent.

Keep up your great work. It's lovely!

Well Sam you would be surprised at the varied accents,,,,,,,depending on which part of the [link] live in!!!!

...So glad you like my work!

SamFoote In reply to TriciaS [2008-08-15 08:08:06 +0000 UTC]

I'd imagine that such is the case in most parts of the world (sry but your link was dead so I'm not sure where you are exactly). It certainly is in the States. My point was simply that sometimes cultural differences can add an alluring aspect to friendships or the want to go somewhere or be with someone. Simply put, I like accents, they are mutually exotic. British especially.

Great day Patricia!

Your always such a sweetheart Amy. Thank you for your kindness.

This piece is in fact available. Send me a note if you'd like to inquire. I'd love to give it too you really. (I know you were joshing) In fact I've given quite a bit of work away. But with the economy as it is, and my rent being so expensive, I unfortunately need to justify the tremendous amount of time I spend on these things. As an artist I know you understand. I've been selling some stuff of late but I've been charging prices that put my hourly WAY, way, below minimum wage. I'll have prints of my work on my website as soon as I find the funding. Hopefully one day, want of my work will exceed demand. (For the both of us)

Your site looks great btw, and I'm glad to hear that people have been inquiring about prints. I know your work will be doing well for you in short order!

Hope you are well Amy. Keep up your tremendous work, I love it!
