Gotta say what I see does that make me cra-zee? The painting is fab In a second I'd nab it right off the wall but what's with the blue oval ball? Looks like you added it over the top Could it be........from photoshop?!
As for the red dot I know just how that got there for I saw you eat that huge hunk of meat standing a bit too near the ketchup squirted, oh dear! Rich quickly wipes it off his chin but leaves it on the frame with an evil grin.
Jin, would you believe it was a really dark photo and I had to brighten & contrast it a little to see more of the detail. The Blue was the only part with a white undercoat, the rest has a black undercoat, so it appears much brighter (on purpose). But if you look closely you can see where the thickened acrylic is raised above the flat blue... kinda...
There's plenty hotter and more talented people than I... They're the ones I buy drinks for at bars, and then steal their paintings when they're too drunk to say anything about it.
Ignore that, people don't need to know how much a painting is bought for. If your value is a buck BHip, then that's how much it's worth to you. But really, 'thanks' for the vote of confidence.
hmmmm...stroking pointy bearded chin & adjusting beret. "We now learn to translate reality in our imagination into constructions which can be controlled by reason, in order to recover these same constructions later in 'given' nateral reality thus "penetrating" nature by means of plastic vision."
Well, yeah, the national gallery has a couple of his works... the black lines and colourful squarey type. I think they're pretty cool, but can think of quite a few artists I prefer.
Big lizard strolling through... hahaha! What can I say after that? Hahaha, crikey!
I guess about the only thing I can say L>t is that once you know the Australian Landscape in drought you might understand my colour choices and textures a little more...
I'd like to pull into an Australian bay & smell Euculyptis(?) I read some where that's how you know you have reached Australia. It just seems so cool (Euculyptis/cool get it?) I'm a person who loves to smell things, anyway.
Euculyptis (worst joke evah! hehehe) smell the best out in the middle of the bush just before it rains. Their leaves release oil and the air becomes kinda electrified with it. Easily one of my favourite scents.
Well, you certainly don't come across as semi-illiterate. Perfume's worth the read, it's a dark little rendition by Patrick Süskind about a serial killer in search of the perfect scent but the way the novel transforms your sense of smell into something completely tangible is marvelous.
For weeks after reading it I walked into rooms imagining the scent that would make the mood of the room perfect for the situation.
I was just noting that your Eu-cool-lyptis joke was 'terrible' but made me laugh anyway.
Ha! someone acually thought one of my jokes was funny. I think I'm hilarious, & sometimes when I make a joke I cackle like an old hen. I'm cackling right now.
Anyway, smelling has always been a big deal with me. There is this author who's a psychiatrist who writes books about weird people he's come across. He wrote about a guy who thought he had the olfactory senses of a dog. I have felt like that sometimes. Have you?
Unfortunately with painting I tend to get bored of a style really quickly. Almost like, "Yep, I've played with that idea... NEXT!", so I rarely get to work through my ideas with increasing clarity. So the paintings in this style are about drought and our expectations of the land.
Take: 43
Whats the red sticker? Is that like the one I get at the lunch line that sez I'm entitled to a salad with my sandwich?

I think it means he's in the Red Zone.
And you can so paint. Multi-talented poopee head.
Congratulations!

You certianly CAN paint! That is the most convincing surfboard and ball bearing I have ever seen!
Wed May 02, 06:20:00 am
Wow, hot AND talented.
Wed May 02, 01:04:00 pm
That's exactly what the red sticker is SafeT. We all like to get a little green with our meal.
Wed May 02, 01:12:00 pm
No I can't Monkey... just don't tell anyone. Well, you can tell people I'm a poopee head, it adds to the mystery.
Wed May 02, 01:15:00 pm

But you're quite right about the ketchup!
Wed May 02, 01:29:00 pm
As always Diana, you cut right through all that artsy crap and go right to the heart of what I was trying to express.
Wed May 02, 01:30:00 pm
Brooke, *giggle* oh you!
There's plenty hotter and more talented people than I... They're the ones I buy drinks for at bars, and then steal their paintings when they're too drunk to say anything about it.
Wed May 02, 01:34:00 pm
You are a true artsy-fartsy with a capital A! (or "F" depending on if you've eaten beans and/or fiber or not)
Thu May 03, 12:49:00 am
I get my fiber from stomping on artsy-fartsy peoples faces and then eating their work.
Thu May 03, 09:28:00 am
Hey RICH!!!
HI!
*jin waves*
BYE!
*jin waves*
Thu May 03, 11:26:00 am
Um, yeah, Hi Jin... High Jin?
Thu May 03, 12:09:00 pm
Um...too much coffee & no food for many hours.
Well, cookies don't count, do they?!
I mean, I certainly didn't count the half a dozen that I ate.
Thu May 03, 12:37:00 pm
Sugar cookies and coffee... yep, high as a kite!
Thu May 03, 12:53:00 pm
hmmmm...interesting
Thu May 03, 03:35:00 pm
hmmmm... why so l>t?
Thu May 03, 04:19:00 pm
Looks nice. I'm sure you could sell that for....you know....whatever the Australian equivalancy of 1 American Dollar is...

I might agree with that, but I'm a little more inclined to use metallic tints and aggregates than my fellow dutchman.
Fri May 04, 10:25:00 am
Piet Mondrian. do you like him?
Fri May 04, 10:46:00 am
BTW, metallic tints...ify, but it does look reptilian.
I was going to say the middle image kinda looked like a big lizard strolling through.

Did you paint that with a computer???
Fri May 04, 11:49:00 am
Only in as much as you play your guitar with a satellite :)
Fri May 04, 12:03:00 pm
you know what i'd like to experience?

Have you read the book perfume?
Fri May 04, 01:40:00 pm
no. never heard of it. you know i'm semi-illeterate
Fri May 04, 02:42:00 pm
Euculyptis (worst joke evah! hehehe) what does that mean? BTW

Fri May 04, 03:46:00 pm

:l

RICH! RICH! COME QUICK! ARTHBARD MADE AN APPEARANCE!
Rich, and I want the damn salad now.
Sun May 06, 12:20:00 am
very interesting work. is there more?
Sun May 06, 04:42:00 am
Fine SafeT! I just need to toss it first.
That's totally worth a shout-out!
Mon May 07, 01:23:00 pm
Sure is Poopee,

I love it! Bubble being spaghetified in a black hole in the middle of the universe. Very Stephen Hwkingish. I'll take it. Mail it to me.
Tue May 08, 05:53:00 am
I really need to start spell checking comments, you get the gyst.
Tue May 08, 05:54:00 am
Sure. Actually I don't have it anymore. Sorry.
That's a totally different interpretation... I like it. 13 dimensional space it is then :)
