Description My island painting itself...
There is a long tradition of painted hands that paint the painting...
This is my own addition...
It is an obsession of mine that rooted beings develop the ability of moving and doing things...
Unfulfilled desires...
Oil on canvas
Dedicated to 3 friends and great hearts...
and in random order
Tassos Kouris

EDIT: NEW HIGHER RESOLUTION AND BETTER FOCUSED IMAGE 11 Nov 2007
And Special Thanks to for eliminating the digital noise off the image

The hand is very well done ! To me it's the most difficult part of the human body.

I am truly grateful for this dedication, my friend! I have watched it before and now that I see it again I must say you gave very creative two cents to the "painted hand paints painting" concept. Your entrenched hand "stands like a fist" and reaches out to the sky. That's amazing.

I wished you could do a better photo of your painting though because I think it loses a lot with this fuzziness.

anubis In reply to Lilyas [2007-11-05 11:12:34 +0000 UTC]

My Lily,
your wish for a better focused photo is fulfilled.
The owner of the painting brought me today a better focused image...
So, now, Your dedication is rather unblemished

Ah, this is splendid, Tassos!!!! Now would you allow me to take this photo and retouch it with my new noise reduktion tool? Which one is really great! I can try it with this smaller watermarked version first but if you like you could send me the original over to make the improvement. Look what the preview would look like: [link]

anubis In reply to Lilyas [2007-11-05 17:17:37 +0000 UTC]

Wow... this is a miracle.... Of course my Lily, I can send you the unaltered image so you can try the filter..... As an attachment to your regular mail?
And, if you want, you can tell me what filter this is...?
Much love and hugs

You are right about the fuzziness... I asked the owner of the painting to take a better photo and give it to me... let us hope he will....
