It has been way too long since my last post here, February I believe was the last date with the stone sculpture.  Since then I have created below a few sculpture works, one a park installation out of snow, and then the indoor sculpture , “Organic Pants Dance”  One of my most favorite works today.  Sorry the painting section has slowed down, But I have been slowing down the painting style and have been focusing on detail.  The New Seed Painting is almost ready to be shot, and The Re-birth of an older painting should be making its way to the surface by the end of the summer.  Hopefully There will be more posts on here, more than every 4 months or so.  I am also on the verge of truly launching Pixel Squared Studios into full operation.  Check out the site if you get a chance, www.pixelsquaredstudios.com  Best, DWG 

Heres a recently finished  stone sculpture, a new material I am working with, and plan on expanding upon this

 A new painting for all to see.  This painting was created back in November, but is in thick oil so it has taken a while to dry.-DerekWalter- 

I journeyed back to land of birth over the holidays, to Cleveland Ohio.  It’s always good to see the old faces, and remember old stories and make new memories as well.  While I was back home I got to hook up with my good friend Nick Murway based now in Chicago.  We collaborated on a photo-shoot for his portfolio and for the jeweler Andrea Li located in Denver, CO.  Below is one of the photos from the shoot, if you have a chance check out the work of either one of these extremely talented artists.

This was an installation that I put up at the beginning of the fall semester.  My computer crashed so it took me a while to retrieve photos.  Hope you all enjoy. -dw- 

Here is an installation that I recently put up in the art building at CU.

I created this painting about two weeks ago, but I have started heading in a new direction with my work , so hopefully as soon as the new paintings are somewhat dry I will have them posted.
