Description
"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look?
Some say its just a part of it:
Weve got to fulfil de book."
Bob Marley

Please have a look and consider joining the Remodernist Painters' Group [link] (RPG). I really like your work, and I think you'll feel at home with us.
Peace & Love,
Carson

Sorry, my bad; thought it was a painting. I truly love your work, but the Remodernist PAINTERS' Group was forced to exclude photographers - not because a photographer (or any other type of artist) can't be a Remodernist, but merely because of the demographics of the host site.
I don't know the exact statistics (and I'm not sure if anyone does) but I will venture an educated guess that at least 19 out of 20 members of redbubble are photographers - mostly amateurs. Thus, if we accepted photographs, our overview page would instantly be completely dominated by them.
Further, to be perfectly candid, one has to draw the line somewhere; my primary interest is in painting, and, since I founded the group, I get to make the rules.
I apologize for my conclusion. So many of your excellent photographs are of painted surfaces that I thought you were also a painter.
By the way the Remodernists of DA do accept photographs [link]

it's ok
and i can understand
painters easily get lost in the abundance of photographs
for me, i appreciate the results, no matter how they are achieved
but it is the quality of the work that counts
and that is what should not be allowed to get lost
in the mass of images
it is hard to find great painters around here
keep up your good work in doing so

Dislike Bob Marley intensely (I think it's the rat tail hair) but love this shot!
