Robert, that is so cool! Again, you are the master at simian facial expressions.
I don't paint so I watch the painting progress pics with great interest and I think you are trying to confuse me - the last painting you did the subject first and the background last. Now this one you have done the background first and the subject last - WHAT'S UP WITH THAT!!!

Thanks Wendy! You know as a kid I was both fascinated and disturbed with the Planet of The Apes films....you're little comment there made me just realize it may have had a greater impact then I ever imagined!

Thanks Mike! I think what may be up with that, is that technique-wise I still don't quite know what I'm doing! I do believe starting with the background is what I should always be doing...but I seem to do a lot of stream of consciousness painting and that makes me just around I guess!

I think he seems to be running away from trouble!
Here's the finished piece. I hope to do a few ink drawings for the show and then they all go off to Portland!

Well I had the ride of my life...
Great job Robert! I love the texture on that shirt - reminds me of the zip-up velour shirts I had in the 70s

Love the painting, Robert. Junior looks to be having a blast on his scooter spree.

Hukilau is less than 2 weeks away! In addition to my original painting Enchanted At The Cove, I will have these 12x12 inch prints on 100% Cotton Rag fine art paper.
Looking forward to meeting TC'ers!
