It's been a long fun filled road with the Olympics in my home town. Lots of celebration, lots of fun and lots of work!

I just finished painting in the Athlete's village today and I am gearing up to go DJ at Maxx Fish tonight... and thankfully I have no more scheduled events for the weekend so i will get a chance to wind down a little bit before heading straight in to the Artistic direction of the parade... wow!

April will be my time to take a deep breath and sigh heavily.

Here is a photo my friend Blake Jorgenson took of me DJing at the medals plaza in Whistler right before we were awarded our first gold in Whistler to a Canadian... it was pretty crazy, but really fun!

Well, yet another great day here in Whistler.  The sun is shinning and so are all the smiles on literally everyone's faces.  Olympic fever has hit Whistler hard... in a good way!

Today I am planning the Parade lead in for the athletes parade leading in  to the paralympics at the end of March.  I am designing te float, organizing performers, planning music, and wrangling talent and helpers...going to be  big project, but really fun at the same time!

Tomorrow from noon until 430pm I will live painting in the village again in the Town PLaza.  It's really fun to be able to create in the thick of the excitment...it's hard to wipe the smile off my face when I am painting!

Just giving a heads up that the Auction for the Piece I painted on Olympic Breakfast on Valentine's Day it ending in 1 day.  The proceeds will go to The Whistler Adaptive Sports Program.  You cn bid directly on the Ebay widget on my home page...it's all for a good cause, so don't be shy.

Wow... I was a bit of a nay sayer about the Olympics before it came to town...but I gotta say, I'm having the best time ever!

I got To DJ at Medals Plaza right before the medals Ceremony lastnight...soooo much fun.  the energy was electric and we got our first Gold Medal in Whistler for a Canadian.  Yay!

HI Everyone.  I have just listed the CTV Live painting I did on Ebay...it was the easiest auctioning software I could sort out.  the item is listed as:

 happy bidding...it's for a great cause! Whistler Adaptive Sports Program (WASP) is a not-for-profit society that provides year-around, recreational programs for people of all ages with disabilities.

Well,

 the hype in Whistler is finally here.   the town is buzzing with free concerts, art and the whole world.  It's been a fun few days and it is only building up steam.  As more and more medals are won the more the excitment grows!

The Piece that I painted live on CTV's Olympic Breakast will be auctioned off online on February 18th.  Look on my site for details.  Most likely it will be done thru Ebay to maximise exposure so it can generate lots of funding for W.A.S.P.  (whistler adapive sports program).  I will put out another blog post with more details when I have them.  I will also put something on the site.

And in other news, The Mural Mosaic project that I participated in has been unvieled.  You can check it out at  http://www.muralmosaic.com/kunamokst.html

I'm gearing up for my big DJ gig as well.  I am headlining at the Medals stage on Feb 20th from 6-730pm...if you are in town come and check me out and shake your groove thing!

More updates ocome in the next few days!

Go Canada!

I have just been asked to do a live painting on Olympic Breakfast on CTV, Canada's Olympic station.  Should be a good time.  I have 6 hrs to complete a piece that will be auctioned off and the proceeds will go to a good cause.

the catch... after working my gallery all day and DJing for 5 hrs tonight (until 230 am)  I will be starting the painting at 3 am until 9am.  The show goes live on the east coast at 3am PST.

If you happen to be making coffee in the wee hours of the morning, tune in to CTV and see what I am able to pull off in 6 hrs...

Wish me luck!!

Well, tomorrow is the big day...the start of the 2010 Olympic Games!  Th madness will be coming down the line in T Minus 18hrs.

I've been booked for 3 more DJ gigs and one more live painting gig in the Athletes Village.  I also am going to be doing some Live Painting for CTV's Olympic show.  Dont have the date locked down yet, but I'll let you know.  I have 6 hrs to complete a painting and then it will be auctioned off and the proceeds will go to a good cause (to be determined)  It should be interesting...

Thanks for caring!!

wow...only 3 days until the 2010 Olympic Games... It's been a long build up to the famed games.  Loads of construction, parking restrictions, guys with guns and mandatory buses.  Right now it's the calm before the storm.  We all have our fingers crossed in Whistler that all the games have to offer will be offered to Whistler and not just Vancouver.

It's been years of long days and late nights for me to get ready for the next month and a bit and I'm feeling confident that I couldn't be any better situated than I am now to really benefit from the worlds media exposure.  I'm on the top 7 list of people to talk to in terms of art and culture...that goes a long way!

I am just about finished sorting out my stock and stretching all my prints.  Once I have all my stock up and the gallery organized I will do a little video walk through for those of you who live far away from Whistler.  It'll look full and amazing!  I'm really stoked with what i have managed to build up and create all from the fruits of my creativity!

I just got hired to do some live painting in the Athletes Village on the 15th...that's just across the highway from my gallery so hopefully that will help bring over some traffic.

Well...wish me luck!  Thanks for following my updates and offering your support!
