MICHAEL J. MAYOSKY

Here is a sample of what I have been working on during this very warm winter. Please come back and check for more. This painting is titled “Nature Became Aware”. 145.00 for a signed print, (limited to 100) If interested, please contact via email.

Yes there is phases… I decided to take this like a larger picture of sorts. I do know that this next step, (three steps total), will be the hardest. Step One, the mural and introduction, Step Two, the performance on the street, and Step Three, the film about it all.

So in the coming weeks, into months, I will be hitting the streets of Grand Rapids, Michigan ready to kick out some music driven, energetic, and (dare I say) passionate paintings about music.

I look forward to seeking the musicians that inhabit Grand Rapids… and painting with them. So Grand Rapids, stayed tuned and watch for me dancing with my painting…

It is nice to back in Springfield, Illinois. I have many friends and old stories based in that town’s buildings, parks, trails, and homes. I couldn’t ever think of not having that town in my life. No matter how far I travel, Springfield, Ilinois is always in my heart and hands. If you are ever there, ask me where to go and explore. I have very finite answers for you.

I have succeeded in painting a mural this week in a basement of an old friend. Kim Hartman is her name, and an excellent cook and good conversationalist. She talked with me for hours while I painted her adition to her basement. All black-lite paint. Pictures to be posted soon, I promise. Space was the theme, and depth was the goal. I think we got it.

My next trip is north for a spell. I have some work to do to fix my mural from the new window installation.  It kinda messed my painting…just a bit. And this hurdle only is testing my vigor and determination. I hope I pass.

Grand Rapids is a lovely city. And I miss Founders. I gotta get back.

California is another adventure…more details on that for later.

I successfully made the trip back to Springfield, Illinois from Gallatin Tennessee. The murals in Tennessee came out wonderfully. I look forward to going there again. A very good little southern town that took me in.

I am now in the ‘Patch” painting a mural for Kim Hartman. Just the standard space-scape. Adding the glow in the dark paint brings out the depth of space better than anything I have seen. I shall post those pics soon enough.

I am leaving for Michigan this weekend. It should be cold, but warm in friendship. As expected. I can say truely, that I have found a home in G.R. mural pics soon to be posted!

….large and small paintings, I am ready for a change. Following these few sentences, I shall be posting my videos of my adventures. And to sit down and edit all this footage? Will be a great challenge. I look forward to the next few months….Now time to put the story together…wish me luck.

…this may take a bit, but this is going to be a long affair. I have over 2000 photo’s of paintings from the past 17 years. Needless to say kids… organize them as you take them. Don’t wait till they are all piled up like your mom and dad did…

How many people have taken the time to paint a mural. Any size….any subject matter. I just need to know a round about number to how many people have tried to paint a mural. Comment here and leave your stories… Don’t worry..I will believe the stories no matter the crazyness.
