The Art of Frank-Joseph Frelier

Notes Frank-Joseph on his website Frank Paints Dudes:

Frank Paints Dudes connects with men in nontraditional ways to create traditional paintings using ink and paint. Through live painting sessions, Frank gains insight into the subject, creating a short vignette of the human in that moment, through conversation and casual interview. His signature watercolor Figure Studies are quick paintings, done entirely within 20 minutes.

Originally from Texas, Idaho, and Montana, Frank attended Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles, and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Illustration. In addition to working as freelance illustrator, he has contributed to projects at Marvel Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, and Lucasfilm’s Industrial Light & Magic. He currently lives in Portland, OR.

Autumn: By Far the Most Paradoxical Season

Of the four seasons, autumn is by far the most paradoxical. Wedged between an equinox and a solstice, it moors us to cosmic rhythms of deep time and at the same time envelops us in the palpable immediacy of its warm afternoon breeze, its evening chill, its unmistakable scentscape. It is a season considered temperate, but one often tempestuous in its sudden storms and ecstatic echoes of summer heat. We call it “fall” with the wistfulness of loss as we watch leaves and ripe fruit drop to the ground, but it is also the season of abundance, of labor coming to fruition in harvest.

Souls Alike

Every living thing on this earth has a heart
Every little thing that I am, so you are
And if you look in my eyes
You will see we are souls alike.

We are pearls
We are pearls
We are pearls on a chain

– From “Pearls On a Chain”
by Olivia Newton John and Amy Sky
(from Olivia’s 2006 album,
Grace and Gratitude)
