When I was really young I was a big Superman fan. I was also a really big fan of the artwork in Spawn, by Todd McFarlane. My brother was really into X-Men. Which, I gotta give kudos to DC for that! Jess : I was checking out your website where you have some of the artwork featured.
What medium do you use? Ashleigh : I usually use acrylic paint on wood panel. Then I use a self-leveling resin. Ashleigh : Urban cityscapes are the inspiration. I want to try and capture that rhythm and energy and density and grittiness that urban areas have. You just try to hook into that, and I just put it on the canvas. Ashleigh : Yeah! With painting, it completely depends. I will listen to something like Radiohead from their new In Rainbows album.
Brother Ali. With the artwork it totally depends on the color and mood…. I swear to God, I can tell the difference between a painting where I was listening to Bob Dylan versus listening to Pink. I see a difference in the work. Jess: Do you have any upcoming art shows?
Which, by the way, brings up the difference between theatre and film. And in a film, you always have it. Jess: Maybe they gotta do the indie version and then you can play her. Jess is a pop culture junkie living in New York City. She enjoys endless debates about The L Word, Howard Stern, new techy gadgets, DVR, exploring the labyrinth of the Lesbian Internet, memoirs, working out, sushi, making lists, artsy things, anything Lady Gaga touches, traveling, puppies, and nyc in the fall.
Find her on Twitter jessxnyc or via email. Truly amazing. Also, Jackie Jormp-Jomp and Radiohead. Seriously her art is really good. Great interview, ashleigh sounds really cool. I saw the movie a while back and loved it, Ashleigh and the music. And now I see she paints! Wow, those are amazing. My abstracts are so much more…. Jess your next fortune cookie says that your destiny is to be a celeb interviewer.
We have the same first name! Same spelling and everything! I can live vicariously through her. It is like I too am an attractive artist who gets it on with girls on film… wait… no. AS has an earthy charm that makes her very believable as well as very desirable. Too bad, because I admire those two a lot. Anyhow, AS is a terrific actress if Lola is any indication. I have to see the movie now. Cute and smart- nice combo. Maybe they can cast her in the new Law and Order series.

However, as far as sales go for me, nothing compares to seeing a piece in person and having a gallerist be that bridge from the artist to collector. I work alone. My studio is located in a building with other artists which is nice but my work is always created in solitude. Fail your way to success. Failure is just as much a part of the process to success as your moments of winning.
Just keep working. Keep creating work all the time so your creative muscles stay in shape. Stay inspired and fed creatively whether is through other artists work, travel, visits to the museum, a concert, music, theatre or film. But the main thing is to keep creative. While they are deciding, make even more art. I love what I do. It saves me a fortune in therapy bills. On a serious note, creating art fills me with purpose. I see art everywhere, in the graffiti by the train tracks or the street performer in San Francisco.
I find all of it inspiring and I think inspiration is a form of love. I have a nice collection so far but am looking forward to expanding. The thing that inspires me the most to create is joy! Painting brings me joy.
