Wow!
I always knew you had it in you John! And I knew you would not fail a commissioned work, this painting is plain and simply superb!
What a beautiful embrace, such love, such grace. Beautiful colors, beautiful hands (Egon should be proud) and tight embrace.
Cosmic powerful love.
Bravo John, the maestro has returned from exile!

Like it? I loved it, you did "well" like a waterhole in the desert.
I told you not to downplay your abilities, take yourself more seriously and paint bigger.

Karma always bites people in the arse CJ you know that, but we must not be vengeful only let karma work its magic and leave it to the hands of the Gods, always good to hear your painting mate and I am sure you will post soon and blow us all away, your death bed painting still haunts me every time I see it, its that good, on to the next one mate.

you will like the new one, it's a bunch of Buddhist punks busy doing nothing. The image is split diagonally between dark and light.
I'm under serious stress at the moment and can't deal with chores such as taking the picture, processing it and uploading it.
Such is the level of stress I'm under right now, I just don't want to do anything.

When was the last time you went on a holiday CJ, staying at home on time off is not a holiday, I mean really getting away for time to recharge, don't run yourself into the ground for anyone mate, I'm worried about you.

Fair enough, maybe a trip to the osteopath to get a sports massage will help get rid of those knots and stresses in your back, I had one done this year and it really helped out.

had some rain, for one day and overnight.
I'm too far committed with that painting, I don't feel comfortable
continuing with something that I don't value.

donno what you're talking about matey, sorry.
I had to white out a large section of my
latest, because it was all ronk and looked shithouse.
I could not get the eyes to line up and match n that big face
so I printed out one of my eye drawings and made a stencil
out of it, and solved the problem that way. The metallic paints
I'm using are very hard to blend.

when something fails on me I walk away from it for a while, then I come back with a fresh outlook.
This has already gone through many colour changes and corrections.

Painting bores me sometimes.
I like playing with dynamite in built up
urban areas, but none of the hardware
stores sell the stuff.

That painting of mine is making a monkey out of me.
It is showing up all my deficiencies and lack of any
measurable skill for painting. The types of paints
I'm using don't help, they hate to blend, slip and slide
instead of binding, and dry suddenly creating areas of
unevenly spread patches. Worse is they come alive
again when new paint is applied and strip off, leaving
paint holes behind.
