Wow! This contains a little of everyone and a little of everything! First, my favorite Vietnam veteran, artist on qualudes, Bob Ross dominates the foreground! Is that John Casavettes and Mia Farrow (from Rosemary's Baby) in there?
You've got such an amazing talent, Dave and I think this fits the notion that what happens on opening night at a gallery makes or breaks the show!

Yup-You got it..! Kind of the notion that public opinion is dangerous-and the victims wear a fake smile etc

I know I would certainly be happy if my art hung in a gallery that attracted a lot of stars, but I'm not too sure how long I could keep up the smiles.

Heh... this one is definitely one of your most "out there's".... I have no clue how these tie together or if they do, but it sure is fun to look at and think about....Bob Ross!

Pumps up the pop culture fever dream way past gravity's edge; thoroughly hallucinatory...

Thanks Sam! I wanted to make it a parody of a fictitious art opening night-with a subtle statement of how public opinion is a dangerous thing..I dunno if anything came across how I wanted it but its appealing to the eye and thats good-haaaa!

It's one of the most impressive displays of composition and the juggling of disparate elements I've ever seen, Mac...

Haaaaa-Maybe its just the power of Bob Ross

I guess its the play on the title-The Critical MASS-like it is some religious congregation/art as god given/how they all gathered together to crucify jesus etc..

That makes sense thematically, too, then-- I was just struck by the way that figure gives everything something to cohere with visually-- it's an amazing composition...

Thanks. I think my compositional skills/ambition far outweigh my technical skills. Im sure of that!

I was wondering if you could start putting the names of movies, people, and/or characters that are included in your paintings in the description?
I think I would enjoy your paintings even more if I knew theses things.
