Well- really, it's been 20 years since i actually put brush to canvas to make an actual painting.......it's for the square foot show here next weekend in chicago.....basically the gallery gave out canvases to a bunch of us creative types, that were 1 foot by 1 foot and let us go to town on them...
here's the hat i threw in the ring this year.......BEHOLD!!!!!
title : Volcanos, vendettas and tropical vistas
museum catalog title : Idol thoughts, murderous musings and mother nature's mayhem
colloquial title: i should have killed you

Great piece Dave
I like the 2D combined with the 3D.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! The 3D looks killer.
Now that the dust is cleaned of the brushes, let's see more!

Very cool painting, Dave! Delightfully ugly, yet badass shrunken head - the only way a shrunken head should be painted!
