Awesome!
What mediums and acrylic retarders do you use?

Thanks
I don't use any mediums or retarders, just an atomizer bottle filled with unblessed tap water.

So by simply spray this water from atomizer you prevent acrylic from fast drying and you can do the gradation blend of two colours?

Wow...a powerful painting indeed.
I love how you added the all seeing eye above the cross with the dove representing peace between them. And the idea of the two girls communing with God. As the scripture say; "When two or more come in my name I am there too."
Awesome work.

I also love Massacio's "Trinity". Past year I have opportunity to see it on my own in Santa Maria Novella church in Florence.
Another great work. The sense of beauty, colours and atmosphere is something you have in large amounts.
I adore this painting.

This is very beautiful and well composed. It has a very calming feel to it.

Who is the third who walks always beside you?
When I count, there are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one walking beside you
Gliding wrapt in a brown mantle, hooded
I do not know whether a man or a woman
β But who is that on the other side of you?
β¦from The Waste Land, by T.S. Eliot.

Nice. And by nice I mean creepy. And by creepy I mean like The-Shining-sorta-creepy.

I don't understand a lot of your work. I look and see so many tangents and possible stories that I get a bit lost, but every thing you've added feels very deliberate and important to the piec eas a whole. I love looking though, and hunting, and making my own stories to fit all the pieces

how much is a small print? i can't buy one right now but could you get one?

Holy shit, Dan. Massacio's painting is so powerful that I admire you just because you put the link there for us to see. It's like if I put a Mapplethorpe's photo besides one of mine. Nevertheless, your piece has some stark, blunt dryness and aura of fear that draws my attention to it like something inevitable and clean. I love it and I just can sum it in two words: fearful simmetry.

How long ago was this? I love how you borrow these old compositions and modernize them. It adds a lot stylistically.

Ummm... actually I think it was 1990.

Fantastic volume, I love the monotone of the humanity contrasted with the vivaciousness of the "inanimate". So good.

I love that painting, I always wondered how the two patrons felt about being featuered in the painting over that skeleton with that bit of text, something to the effect of what you are I once was , and what I am you two shall be. I have a text book , I think it might even be my Gardner's text, that actually cuts off the whole bottom of that painting. Makes me cringe and die a bit inside.

Ah, how could they do that? Every bit of that painting is so necessary....
