Amazing painting. But the old painting values will never die out.

You're being featured here, my friend [link] (and don't worry about the journal title, that's about an IRL experience)

Awesome stuff, very surreal work! It's like he's entering through a time portal. Like the gods sent him to 2007 to perhaps be cured.

Oh yeah, aside from that I hate these nasty Canadian winters, which start early fall and don't seem to end until late spring. Also pretty busy lately (either that, or disorganized and I can't get nothing done).
Take care my friend

Very beautiful.
I likethe atmosphere, the contrast between the statue an the dull shape of the buildings is very evocative.

Ah ah ah, you understand Italian...
It's a quote from a song of Vinicio Capossela, that talks about a man who come back home always too late and too drunk. And the clock reprove him.

This is one your best works, in my humble opinion. I just love it. It's hard to being the analysis anywhere, there's just too many things that are right on the spot. ... Augh, too good.

Simply amazing! No words to describe.

Very thought provoking! I just got done reading the part in the Aeneid when Priam is speaking of Achilles' nobleness, just before he is killed by Achilles son. It's interesting to look at your painting from the angle that respect is lost in this day in age...

Your input is right on the spot!!!
