    Not bad recreations. I'd love to see any original work if you've got it :)

    Thanks for all the feedback guys!

    I wish I had some orginal works to show to you, but it would appear that i don't have a creative bone in my body!! :)

    I am merely a copier. (Is anyone reminded of Chasing Amy?? "You're a Tracer!") hahahhaa....


    ok, anyways, the 4th and final piece of the puzzle is finally complete.... Stone.

    And the whole band together....

    I guess the next step is getting them on the wall... I'll let you know how the new dining room turns out!

    love civ.

    Hi All,

    For the last couple of weeks i've been working on my "recreations" of the Benaroya LP sleeves....

    I instantly fell in love with these images as soon as i saw them. Thank you so much to whomever created them originally!

    xo Civ.

    INCREDIBLE!!!! Great work! You are extremely talented!

    So how do we get our hands on these? You could probably auction them off with a portion going to charity, etc.

    Thanks for sharing.
    I'll scream my lungs out...'til I fill this thread!

    Thank you, everyone, for your kind words.

    All of these offers to buy them are EXTREMELY flattering! However, I don't think i'm prepared to part with them.

    And plus, I don't think i could profit off someone else's ideas... remember, I didn't create these images, i only painted a copy of them... :)

    Love you all!
    Civ.

    ps. The redocoration of the dining room is not happening very quickly. But all of your encouraging replys will help me kick it into gear so i can show you the finished product! :D

    Your paintings are amazing. I'd love to be able to have a steady hand with a paintbrush, maybe I'll take some classes one day.

    Btw...how did you get that faux suede look on your dining room walls? I love that look...it's so warm, soft and inviting. I've been thinking of repainting my bedroom and would like to maybe go with something like that.

    thanks for sharing you art work. is it ok for me to download and print?
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green
