That is so extreme! So much detail ... god, the hands! And the pillars are quite sexy also. A very beautiful piece - just excellent. A fav for sure.

Very reminiscent of rock posters from the 1960's. I like it. Nicely surreal without being incomprehensible. I salute you for pulling all that out of your head.

You're welcome... I really respect the ability to work all the imagery you do into one piece. The melding of so many different objects into a theme.. well done! For the interim I'll just have to be satisfied with looking at your gallery!

Live long and prosper.

If you keep up this kind of work I think you'll surely find a place to apply your skills for hire! Yeah, I know what you mean about busy... I'm trying to find the time to learn the new skills of drawing while still working (and not taking a class) I've ordered some new books [link] I'm hoping these are everything they say they are I'd looked at one or two of them at Hastings Books and it looked pretty good. Most of my experience is in "technical" drawing for construction but nothing with shadows or subtle textures. I'll be putting up an object study I've been doing this last week to practice shading and curvature drawing. I'll have to see what you think!

leadtrail In reply to kwsallee [2004-02-26 07:45:05 +0000 UTC]

can't wait for that....though it seems that technical drawing is more of a skill/tech thing...the way i see it the way you manipulate lines, shapes and all have an art in itself....gonna check that book by the way. its been a while since i read one....i'm kinda self taught u know

kwsallee In reply to leadtrail [2004-02-26 13:10:07 +0000 UTC]

I've always felt that skills come before art... I have seen children's "art" and I'd have to say some of it is truly just that.. "art" They opperate in a realm of creative drive and have no need to "obsess" over whether a piece is " technically" accurate. Oh, for the days! Now I can't lift a finger to create art unless I find a way to " compose" first. Hense, the books. I'd love to have them this weekend but I think Amazon got them in the mail on monday so... next week probably.

In all things there is a forgetfulness,
never stop doing those things you enjoy,
for your heart may find no reminding
when your hands take no time for the doing.

Keep up the good work!

great pieces of thought there......very well put and i couldn't agree more. art i guess comes with innocence. or rather its more on how we relate with what we feel. a basic human trait we often times forget.

kwsallee In reply to leadtrail [2004-03-01 03:07:25 +0000 UTC]

Survival seems to be the current " in-thing" I wish we all had more time to let go of the things we are "forced" to contemplate day-in and day-out. When we can put art or simply creativity first I think the outcome of life is really much more rewarding than just "success" in some finacial circle. I don't think creativity dies, I think it just sleeps waiting for us to open the door again to rouse it. Part of our failing I think is in letting a mind set rule over our decission to "create" For so long I've heard... "It's really too late for me to begin an artistic life" I feel it's never to late to become what we were destined to be!
