Thanks for the compliments and interest Sperm Whale! I started this series for a show that I will be doing in Ventura sometime this summer. I don't have a solid date yet but I'll keep you posted! I also plan on being in my second Tikis and Terrors show at the astuART gallery in August and hopefully the Lucky TIki will be having some more shows too! Love showing at that place! When I finish these pieces I am also going to start making the really nice Giclee prints......I have access to a place that can reproduce my paintins full size! That could be interesting! We'll see where this goes!
Thanks again!

Hey man, that's some very nice stuff. Your lighting in the paintings makes 'em! And yes, I agree with most everyone else—that fountain painting has "it."

Well, here is a sneak peek behind the scenes of one of my new paintings.......I usually don't want to show them until they are further along but, since we get to see the progress on carvings, I thought it might be interesting to see the creative process concerning a painting! So, here is a small part of a painting that will evolve much over time!

Hey suburban pagan!
Great work! The fountain one on page one and that third one with the lines are my favorites....until you finish this latest one.You capture that night vibe with all of its shadows and stillness! Keep up the great work!
