DRIVE-BY
before dinner and studio..

Thanks LOL
This piece was such a SMASHING SUCCESS
that a painting was in order.....
scroll down Sir!

And i hope you're able to see the show at Hank's..
That is your area,no?
:)

Toe-

seagoat-Thank you kindly for the nice encouraging words!
YES!
There are some more undersea projects in the slow-cooker
so check back every once-inna-spell and there should be some newbies fer ya!

Well, Monkeyman received the Sea Monster for his future Tiki Room
and part of the payment was some 16x20 boards for me to paint on.....
JOY!
His hut is too cool!
I hope he has more CHOPS there!
Thanks Derek!

aaaaaand there was another trip to the Art Supply Warehouse for Seattle supplies
and some more Cel Animation Vinyl..
(BTW-let Clysdalle try it at the CHOP and he seemed intrigued...
Maybe we can wean him off enamels
before his brain rots any more..:lol: )
i grabbed a few more colors...
They're helping to wean me off of paintpens,,
the xylene is making me crazy(ier)...
Plus it's a nicer line...thicks and thins....

Well,Here is the Painted version of "Outside the Cannibal's Hut"
but this time, the story takes a twist....
a whole new narrative emerged..
May i present..
"the Hecklers"
acrylic and Cel Animation Vinyl on thickazz masonite

The story for this one is about a brave little shield
strolling thru the jungle down an unknown path....

He's a little scared,as there are skulls and ribs and pelvises and spines
scattered in the undergrowth...

and then he gets heckled by some of the skulls
but he just ignores them and continues his journey.
the end....
:)

I like this composition by itself...
it's really a blast playing with shapes/depth/color/mood!
YAY!

Here's a close-up..
i did an acrylic base for the color fills
then painted the blackline
then proceeded to build up the lights and shadows with diff colored washes
and then went back over the blackline and added the final pop highlights....

That's it for today!
love ya! mean it!
