I was putzing around one night and that's what happened. "Definately getting better. Keep Painting and Keep Posting. We'll tell you when to stop" Benzart, you have a way with words as well as a knife. That made my morning (laughed like a nut), thanks. Thanks for the kind words and encouragement, folks. I'll keep trying.

I think I need some acrylics or oils to get some vibrant color and be able to correct mistakes. Honest opinions please. Thanks. [ Edited by: foamy on 2004-07-12 12:50 ]

Glad you like it, I never seem to be happy with anything I do (what's up w'dat?). Do I sell anything? Not yet, but I'd really like to (I'm unemployed right now and doing odd jobs). I was thinking about trying to sell everything but "Okomo Cleopatra". Would you be interested? It'd be nice to find it a good home.

F foamy Tiki Socialite The Land of Pleasant Living Joined: Jun 15, 2004 Posts: 597	F foamy Posted posted on Thu, Aug 26, 2004 6:27 AM The little devil is saying "...and life is good..." Thanks folks, it's great to get good feedback from the likes of you. It means a lot to me. Purple Jade and Benzart, funny you should mention T-shirts and CafePress, I've had a shop on there for bodyboarding shirts for awhile and had just started adding some tiki things (www.cafepress.com/slbradleydesign). In fact, the first thing I did was the blue tiki holding a bodyboard. Evidently, tiki and bodyboarding don't go together, 'cause I haven't sold but two items for the whole year I've had it up. Alas. Thanks again, the encouragement is invaluable.

F foamy Tiki Socialite The Land of Pleasant Living Joined: Jun 15, 2004 Posts: 597	F foamy Posted posted on Sun, Sep 5, 2004 4:26 PM Hey, thanks folks. I was very unsure about this one. I made a last minute decision to ink it as it wasn't holding up well on it's own "painted" merits. Love doing sailboats, and the various types of Polynesian proas and catamarans fascinate me. Lots of subject matter there. Thanks again, it helps a lot.

I hadn't done anything in a while and it was fun. I'm going to try and be a little more productive now that the sailing season has little more than a month to go (weekends off – ya know). I've missed the creating and interacting with you all. That and checking out all of the ace work you painters, carvers and artisans post. Thanks, again.
