Busy as a Bee

Hello, Hello again!
So, after a week and a half of being sick, and then trying to finish up the paintings for the show, I am FINALLY able to post again.
There are 3 new paintings for "He is Worthy" that I will have prints available to purchase after each concert- "The Lamb of God", "The Humiliation", and "The Crucifixion". The only one that is the same for this concert is "I know that My Redeemer Liveth"
I am very excited to hear people's reactions to these new paintings!
I am also going to have work up for sale at two different locations around Milwaukee: at Muscari Flower shop on the East Side, and at the Corner Bazaar in West Allis. Pray that these endeavors are blessed!!!
Gotta go!

working on new paintings

This is one of the new paintings that I am working on for the "He is Worthy" program- this is about halfway finished, about- sometimes hard for e to judge exactly how much time is left on a painting, since a lot of that is judged by the feel of the painting. I will be purchasing individual small spotlights to illuminate the paintings during the performances- I think they'll look awesome!

"Portraits of Christ" Art Show

I have in the works a show featuring different portraits of Christ- showing His life, death, and resurrection through the eyes of a contemporary artist (me:)
It will be set up in a similar style as my last show (After the Fall)
It will be located at Point of Grace (2223 E. Kenwood) at the back of the chapel- set up with the look and feel of an East side coffee shop- featuring Live Music by Mike Westendorf and other musicians(yet to book)
Show Opening Night is April 18th, from 7 until 10:30
Parking, I know, is always a bear, but more spots open around the area at 7, and there is a parking structure just east of the UWM student union that is $1 per hour of parking.
Any questions, please contact me :)
Also, if you would like an invitation or fliers to put up in your church or workplace, please email me your address

Children and Family Photography

Hello, again, everyone!
I just wanted to let you all know that I also do Children/infant photos as well as family photos. Again, I strive to do something a little different each time so that the photos are very uniquely you-
visit www.ebelingartstudio.com/family to see examples of what I have done so far. I try to make things as easy as possible for you- pick a spot to take your pictures, and I will meet you there! $175 gets you an hour long session, including individual portraits or couple's portraits. You will receive a disc with the edited photos - you can print these pictures wherever you choose! You will also receive a free matted and framed 8x10 for a serious referral!(contact me for details)
Think spring time for great family photos! Natural Light really is the most flattering light to take photos in, so outdoor locations or places with large windows are preferrable locations!

Wedding Photography

Yes, Wedding Season (may thru oct) seems ages away with all this snow that keeps smashing into WI, but now is really the time that you need to start booking your photographer! (those of you who are getting married in May or June, this is your wake-up call if you haven't booked your photographer yet!)
I have been working in photography since college, and still I like to think that I am more of an artist that I am a photographer, as I view my camera as yet another means to make some really great art, and people are awesome art subjects! I love capturing the emotion and beauty and all the little moments that make your wedding so special and unique.
Many people ask what type of photography I do, and sometimes that is very difficult to say, as I am still finding my niche into photography, but I guess the best way would be to say that I take great photojournalistic-style candids throughout the day, and throw in some fun, off the wall posed shots (they don't have to be off the wall, but I like them to be more relaxed and fun- not stiff and still-looking like many traditional shots are) Basically, my goal is to make you look your best, and make the rest of your guests feel comfortable enough that they feel and act like themselves even when there is a camera in front of them!
Take a look at my photo gallery at www.ebelingartstudio.com
Wedding packages start at only $1000- please contact me for more information!
Good Luck with your wedding plans!

He is Worthy

I have started work on the new paintings for my upcoming performances in a program called "He is Worthy", a Lenten/Easter program built around solos from Handel's Messiah that was put together by Mike Westendorf.
(visit his link to see more)
I also sing the soprano and alto parts, and Mike sings the bass and tenor parts. We are accompanied by Patrick Behringer, who is studying concert piano at UW Milwaukee, and Tiago Ellwanger and Alicia Mose on Violin, as well as Ben Warmuth on Trumpet.
It really is a fantastic program that I urge all of you to see- a very strong combination of music and God's word- bringing a very personal feel as to our responsibility of Christ's death and how amazing his love is for us to willingly suffer for our sakes!
I will post pictures and video as things start to get rolling. I will also have prints of the artwork available for sale at www.ebelingartstudio.etsy.com, and prints will also be available for purchase at the end of each concert performance.
