Hey LLT. Groovy pad, quite an ecclectic collection - think I even spotted a wooden version of my best mate in there.

I was joking about a'series' of Pompele paintings: sh#tloads of work, get it?
Its also not hard to tell that you are engaged in one ever-changing series, as is anyone who works on their art with any regularity/freq. Youre lucky(? - often question my own use of that word... Also read: 'a clever bastard') to be working in a medium/genre that allows such wild jumping around; your particular experimentation/evolution/'series' seems to cover good ground. In comparison I feel quite limited in where I can go with my carving; design is my outlet but considerations of physical strength/weight/size/'seriousness' etc are always a contraint.

Ive got an painter-mate living in my garden at the moment & am well tempted to have a wee dabble myself, just to thrash some of those limitations away & feel some of that raw creativity only a blank canvas offers. Worked as an illustrator for a couple of years, before getting into computer graphics, before travelling and losing all focus to lifes vices & woes... Lifetimes ago, but perhaps a bit of inky-inky, scratchy-scratchy might 'earth' a particular buzzing... (sorry about all this; Im almost through a nice bottle of red :lol:) ... (perhaps not quite done with some of those vices...?) :lol: crunch

Re; those who Get It. Leaving grooviness, funk, wit, irony, insanity, poinancy & pathos aside; it is also so good to see an 'alternative' painter who has an understanding of The Science. It DOES get noticed & WILL be commented upon by Art-Historian-tron 3000 when the time comes... Good on you for having the integrity/nuts to do what you do (so well...)

Visited our man Paipo today & heard he had a work of yours coming. Im looking forward to seeing something of yours in 'real life' too!

Looking forward to the next offering...

Need a refill.
