I'm lighting Dracula's eye's for that Bela Lugosi hypnotic mojo. After listening to a documentary on Dracula I guess Lugosi was the first actor to give Dracula a hypnotic gaze. Robb Hamel ~ wow, that's really nice hearing that from you. Thanks. I'm trying to push each painting a little more. It still feels sometimes like I'm just learning how to paint. Sometimes it's like I'm spinning my wheels, but I guess if you've noticed, then I'm getting somewhere. Really, that's a great compliment. OK, I'm gonna shut up now before I make a fool of myself! Slacks Ferret ~ Cool! They did a really nice job on the mag! But be careful, I had mine sitting out on the coffee table - in a bright room - and unfortunately the cover faded. A nice dark basement tiki bar would be a good place for it! Here's a roughing out of some basic color ideas. I want to paint the most spectacular sun set imaginable, however, I'm realizing with these small canvases I'm only giving myself about 4" x 11" to do it! Guess I better get out the TINY brushes...
