Art of Alexis J. Baliotis
My work has recently taken a 360. It stemmed from fear, however it is more about the inner struggle of an individual, which in my case is my fear. Ever person that walks this earth has inner pain and many try to hide it, but sometimes you can catch a second when their pain is shown on there face and through their eyes. Although my images appear quite violent they actually have nothing to do with violence. I use the beaten look to represent the wounded soul.

Another New Painting
I have painted yet another painting. I am trying to get a few done for the show because one of the larger ones is not going. It was painted over old painting that was never finished and the image is coming through the new painting. I figured i should leave it out since it does not look the way I want it too. Just a reminder I have a show coming up in several weeks. It is at the Arts Association in marblehead. It will be up the whole month of September and the opening will be on the 12th. I hope all can make it.

New Painting
Did a new painting. I like it, it didn't take me too long, and it can go in my show! Is there a better kind of painting? I don't think so. Also did some minor edits the the painting of Noah and the painting of Dean and Kachina. My show is coming up soon, September 12. I feel like I still have so much to do!

Working hard
My apologies for taking so long to post these paintings. I have been painting, however I have also been working 11 and 12 hour days so my time has been very limited to do much else. These paintings are not done yet. Two are signed, however the more I look at them, the more problems I am seeing, so I plan on going back into them in the next few days. The painting of Ben and Liza is not even close to done. I am having some issues with that painting. I put this new image over an old painting and the old painting is coming through the new one. I think varnish may solve the problem at the end of the painting, but i guess we will just have to hope and pray that it is as simple as that.

On A Roll!!
So I am on a Roll with these new paintings. I have been doing at least one a day. People are started to see them and wanting me to do one of them, I guess I need to start carrying around my camera where ever I go incase I run into anyone. I think I like the one of my mother the best so far. The one of Chris is really nice to, but it does not look as good in the photo as in real life. Things blend together nicer in the real painting. I finished the one of my mother. It is the biggest one I have so far. I just got a 36x60 canvas though, so it will not be the biggest for long. I think I got a 30x40 too so I will be busy for a while. I love getting new canvases, it is like getting endless possibilities.
