I am stunned, really, absolutely fantastic work. I am stunned.
Thanks abstractiki!
in total, none of it seems like "work" at all.
Art is just what i do,can't stop it....
nothing too stunning about that
especially when you realize that 60% of our population has SOME form of schizophrenia
It's the Marine Corps discipline that actually focuses my energy
lest i end up like the majority of our culture
full of energy
but too scattered
to make much good out it...

Jeez Kinney, do you ever sleep? :wink:
Amazing not to mention stunning works. Thanks Kinney for beautifying our planet.
No filling here,buddy....maybe -maybe a small pond...paper and paintings are THIN...
Yes i do sleep,Greg
but i go to bed thinking about art
and wake up thinking about art
and i think about it to and from work
and even at work
With all that inner-nagging
what's an artist to do?
