Facebook Works Best

Since my last blog post was back in December. I think you should follow me on Facebook. I have a new fan page, where I post updates and have images of my latest work. It's so much easier to manage. So make sure you become a fan over at Ricco DiStefano Artist

New Year, New Hope.

I'm in the studio tonight working on a commission and putting finishing touches on some of my Shadowman paintings. I'm in the zone and feeling the high that comes from creating within my passion.

This has been a year of some of the lowest lows and highest highs. I've grown from the challenges and have been humbled by the successes.

Every year I make a resolution that is more an affirmation than just a promise. It becomes the theme that drives me to the next level in my development as an artist and ultimately… a human being. I haven't decided yet on what it will be. Last year it was to be a fearless artist, in my visual art (painting) and performing art (acting).

Huge changes coming this year. I promise to be even more creative. I have so much more of my 'song' too share.

Let the race begin!

This was a very cool project. I had a very small part in it but as some big hollywood guy once said: "there are no small parts, just small actors."

Try to find me.

The things artists do

I was asked to create a new resume for a job I was recently offered for work on a movie. So as I dug through all the different art related projects I have done over the years I found this image. It's of a stainless steel table designed for a jewelry store. It sits on a glossy black bowling ball. I had it fabricated by the talented sculptor, Constantin Hapianu.

I am very pleased to announce that my work can be found at this fantastic gallery. Gunnar has created an upscale gallery that caters to first time art collectors and the savvy experienced collecter. You can relax in a very comfortable atmosphere and know you'll be treated with respect. Make sure you drop by and plan a night of it in the hippest shopping and dining area around.

I just came across this and I love it!

Hitler was quoted: "Anyone who sees and paints a sky green and fields blue," he famously said of modern artists, "ought to be sterilized."
