Alright, I’m breaking my own rule here. For the first time ever on this blog, there is no “hell” or “damn” or “dammit”, or whatever. in the title But I just can’t think of a way to improve it by adding those words. It’s weird, because those words improve everything, or so I thought! Anyway,… Continue reading It’s Cubo-Weirdism for 100, Alex.

The Animal Paintings and Where the Hell They’re Going
If you follow me on social media you’ll have noticed that I’ve been doing Cubo-Weirdist (yep, that’s what I’m calling it now–see last week’s post and of course, the new title of this here blog here) studies of animals. I’ve mentioned before that these are studies for larger paintings that I may or may not… Continue reading The Animal Paintings and Where the Hell They’re Going
If This is the Cubo-Weirdism Blog, What the Hell is Cubo-Weirdism?
So when the new blog page here at simoniteblog.standickie.com was launched last week there was a default name for the blog, which if I recall correctly was: Just Another WordPress Blog. Now of course, that would not do! So, off the top of my head, I changed it to Chris Simonite’s Cubo-Weirdism Blog. And few… Continue reading If This is the Cubo-Weirdism Blog, What the Hell is Cubo-Weirdism?
100 Bucks For an Original Oil Painting! Can I Get a Hellz Yeah?
So it’s been a little over a year since I started to sell my work on Instagram and Facebook and it’s gone fairly well. As is my MO, I haven’t kept great records of everything, so when I do my taxes I’ll find out exactly how well I’ve done. But as well as it’s gone,… Continue reading 100 Bucks For an Original Oil Painting! Can I Get a Hellz Yeah?
What the Hell does a Baroque Composer Have to Do with Brushstrokes, You (Didn’t) Ask?
So today I thought I’d post this commission of the Baroque composer Henry Purcell. Yeah, that’s right someone commissioned me to do a portrait of a British composer from the Baroque era. It’s a first and it was a fun one and I’d happily do more. Just Sayin’. Anyway this painting was commissioned partly to… Continue reading What the Hell does a Baroque Composer Have to Do with Brushstrokes, You (Didn’t) Ask?
Game of Lannister or How the Hell did THAT Happen?
I thought about titling this post “Game of Shite”, or something like that, considering my completely written-down rule that there must be a curse word in all of my blog post titles, just to amuse myself. But I thought better of it because that might make it seem like I don’t like Game of Thrones… Continue reading Game of Lannister or How the Hell did THAT Happen?
Holy Shite, it’s the One Year Anniversary of this Blog!
I did it everybody! I wrote about myself once a week for a year! I feel like that should put me in the Narcissists Hall of Fame! Congratulations me! Woo hoo! How many more exclamation marks can I use? Okay, I’ll stop now. But I did think I should mark the occasion, especially since I… Continue reading Holy Shite, it’s the One Year Anniversary of this Blog!
What the Hell is a Landscape of the Mind?
Last week I talked about the possibility of doing paintings of animals for Damaged Landscapes, which will be an exhibition of new works by the Frost Shield Kerfuffle collective of which I am a member. At the end of the post I mentioned that I had another idea that springs from a couple of sources.… Continue reading What the Hell is a Landscape of the Mind?
I’m Against Dog Eugenics, Dammit!
Some of you dear reader(s) may recall that I’ve mentioned in this blog that I’ll be in an exhibition with the Frost Shield Kerfuffle collective next year entitled Damaged Landscapes. You also may have noticed that I’m not exactly a landscape painter, so it won’t come as a surprise to you that I’m thinking about… Continue reading I’m Against Dog Eugenics, Dammit!
Superheroes are Everywhere! Even In My Damned Blog!
That’s right, it’s two weeks in a row I’m talking about Superheroes on my blog. On a side note, a few weeks ago I decided that my blog should be on Tuesdays instead of Mondays since I always post new work on Instagram on Tuesdays and I always write a sort of micro-blog on that… Continue reading Superheroes are Everywhere! Even In My Damned Blog!
