6. Awesome Work, Man

Wonderfully complex with great attention to detail. This is the same type of thing I strive for in my work so it's great to find a "fellow traveler" if you will.

(Incidentally, I'm opening in a group show at CBGB's 313 Gallery in New York at the end of the month; if anyone is interested.)

7. You've nailed it...
King George II, the Crusader, marching off to Armegeddon, armed with arrogance, smirking in disdain of the masses, and whining because he's so picked on.

Great work!

8. The real one has 2 panels and is unframed
I think the most haunting painting I ever did was of the WTC 9-11 diaster finished 2 years prior to 9-11 ! and was done little by little over 10 years.

It now hangs in San Antonio.


I swear this is true.

Edited on Thu Jun-17-04 10:25 AM by Skidmore
I believe you.
