  • reefercheif, thank you so much. i am also inspired and surprised by the overwhelming number of artists on this board. it's staggering!

    V V, that is one of the best compliments anyone has given me. it means a lot when someone says that something i've done has changed their mood...more than i can say. thank you.

    also, i wanted to thank each and every one of you once again. i started my website one year ago today, and as of last sunday i finally reached the 10,000 hits mark on my website! it's thanks in large part to the people here who have taken the time to have a look. i love looking at my domain report and seeing places like finland, ireland, argentina, russia, and so on as places of origin for my list of views. so thanks again, and sorry if i sound repetitive, but it means a lot to me. :)

    thanks gluten! you have always been very supportive! :)

    funny that the day after i posted this message, my web host made a mistake with my account and suspended it due to a paperwork error, apparently. i cannot access the site or my email until monday (at least i'm hoping they straighten it out on monday, as i've already called them several times today to get it fixed and each time they've assured me it would be done by the end of the day...) anyway, my site is gone for now...i'm just hoping they haven't lost the content as well!

    so i guess i'm stalled at 10,000 for a while :)...

  • right on V V, i'd be interested to see some of your stuff. i got my problems worked out with my site, fortunately, so that's working for me again. let me know if you have a link to that old thread, or when you "get back to work", as you say :)

    all due respect V V, but you have to be kidding me! those paintings are brilliant and your concepts and use of color are equally so. i left a message for you in your thread, so please continue to share your work with us. i would say look proud, not embarassed!!!

    i'm jealous of your sketching ability. my sister does some fantastic sketching, and some people have said they like my painting - she's not very good with the paint, and i can't sketch worth a lick, so be happy that you've got them both down! :) fantastic work! thanks again for sharing.

    Get in line RVM86!! ;)

    MB10, i had another look at your site, and discovered "Brian". This is my favorite one of all... so simple... yet so lifelike! i love it!

    (and looking at your picture, i can't help but be reminded of Jesse James... another hunky artist that i admire!! :))

  • wow! jesse james...i'll take that...:) thanks ceg!

    edit: oh yeah, thanks for the compliment on brian too. it's my take on a photographer friend's self portrait.

    hey, mookieb10, did you ever post your new piece?
  • pinonpinon Posts: 427
    visited your site and am way impressed...to much to comment on everything but I really fell for "helpless" and "homeless"......exellent!
    You´ve got a big talent :)
    Life is too serious to be taken seriously
  • holy smokes mookie, just visited your full site... had not seen it before... wowzers. more Excellent stuff! would really like to see them full size real life.
    Salut baloo
  • thanks prljam85!

    thanks to pinon and burtschips for checking out the site! as always, appreciated..."helpless" was the first one i did, based on the neil young song, of course.

    ...and gluten, i'm still waiting for a darn pic to post! my friend was in the dominican, then toronto, then cape breton...i hope to hook up with him before summer...:D i'm happy with the finished piece though...hope it will be worth the wait!
  • pinonpinon Posts: 427
    well, if "helpless" is based on Niel Young song...I wonder....is "weeping song" based on Nick Caves "weeping song" ??? ....it has to be...right ? ;)
    Life is too serious to be taken seriously
  • weeping song was what i was listening to when i painted that one, yes. i was listening to a lot of nick cave at the time...and so i was trying to convey a dark, cold, and haunting look with the painting...i love doing the black and whites like that one. the tree in that one is kind of like an exaggerated "weeper"...like a weeping birch, or weeping mulberry.

    good call, pinon! :)

    i feel shame that my ego has been exposed...;)

    i have also been exposed as a fraud as the truth is i order my paintings from someone else and pass them off as my own, so that is why i don't a have a picture yet to show you and gluten :D ...i am on back order! :D

    really though, it should be within the next couple of weeks that i'll get a picture from him. i'm anxious to show it, but hope it won't be a let down! :)
  • stuckinlinestuckinline Posts: 3,375
    still waiting..................... :)
  • pinonpinon Posts: 427
    me too....you sure are taking your time ;)
    Life is too serious to be taken seriously
  • damn! i wish i had a digital camera! :) i'm still waiting too...maybe the painting will "drop" on may 2nd ;)

    should i just post it here when i finally do get the pic, or start a new thread?...probably just post it here, eh?

    To be honest, it's very flat....
    ...I thought the world, turns out the word thought me
  • that's cool. do you think it needed more depth then, or more vibrant colours?
  • dude, those are sweet

    Ever be wiiling to part with a set, and if so, what kind of a dollar tag (feel free to pm me)
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key
  • thanks depopulation. :) sent you a PM...

    ok, i hadn't jumped into this thread before b/c mookie knows how i feel about his paintings from other threads, etc... but... but... are you dissing my boy?!? :D

    or is this a joke, since it IS painted on a flat surface? :p

    only teasing... i know mook can handle negative criticism. i just don't happen to have any for him. :)
