hey there say, all...
just trying to decide ... but this has been fun to do...
still working with the hair, but--
it is nice to have a larger size face to work with and
hair that really shows up...
only had about 2 others, similar to this in size...
better than the tiny faces, :)
that are hard to fine-tune...

My 1st attempt to embed what amounts to a bit over 1 min. of digital art video. "...if @ 1st you don't succ33d, cry in time again..."
Anyway, Artist's credits as shown on the ending titles. This was co-opted from a graphics text entitled "Metalheart," 2001 - DVD. Scandinavian in origin. Would be a nice read, but, like Playboy, I only look @ the pictures.
In an alternative world, I was an artistic one; printmaking, sculptor, primarily. My wife paints, pleine air oils....landscapes intended to sell up here, natch - Art School was quite some time ago. Somewhere along the line, I was waylaid and sidetracked.
I used to be a writer, too, until Zen. Overliberated, as they say. Hogwash!
I'll root around for whatever images I can, w/o regard to our respective websites. Which, of course, would be mistaken for shameless commercial posturing.
1st time I've logged onto this thread. I am extremely impressed with our localized talent squad, to say nothing of the tastes of our collectors.

I posted this on another thread. It's an original image that comes up in my investigations of certain contours in the complex plane - an overlap of math and art.

PS: This could be a good tagline to my yet unposted thread, in which a similar conclusion was derived by purely anthropomorphic field research, which, to my surprise, yielded orthographic results. If that makes any sense,

The Lightning Field
Art
//Directions
The Lightning Field is a land art work in Catron County, New Mexico, by sculptor Walter De Maria. It consists of 400 stainless steel poles with solid, pointed tips, arranged in a rectangular 1 mile × 1 kilometre grid array. Wikipedia
Address: Pie Town, NM 87827
Created: 1977//
I'm afraid you will either have to paste the URL in your browser, or, just try double clicking in this text box, if you wish to view this landmark Earthwork (no pun). It's so hard to cut/paste copywritten Art images that I couldn't even transfer some of my own wife's website images. I guess she'll just have to email me some jpg file direct.
Obviously, my insommnia's acting up tonight.

Thanks for the new contributions and welcome to This Just In's great "Art" thread, KabalaArch. IMHO one of the best off topic threads on the Taco, and not even that off-topic since it features stuff made by so many forum members.
Congrats on the show, Paul, hope it goes well.
Continuing my exploration of Museums in my new area...
We went a few weeks ago to the Huntington Gardens and Library. What a phenomenal place! We went rather late in the day and spent most of our time in the amazing gardens, so only had a little while to look at art in the American Museum.
Here are a few of my favorites. Sorry about the quality, no flash allowed:
Argh! Uploading issues again...

hey there say, phylp... wow, i love hearing about your museum tours...
say, also, paul, will you have any gallery shares, in calif, during june?
also, phylp... loving gardening from my mom and art, as well, it is a hard decision, at times to know where to spend more time, in such cases as you mentioned:
garden or art... oh my, :)

Hey Phylp, what a coincidence we were just down at the Huntington a few weeks ago as well. You are absolutely right what a place. The gardens and the collections are really just spectacular! Honestly I was shocked at how beautiful everything was. I recommend it to everyone.
Will be in a landscape show at the Art League in Santa Cruz at the beginning of June... looking forward to it.

hey there say, all...
this just got to its new home...
oil on canvas...
and, BELOW:
did this acrylic, though, it is not very advanced art,
was just a simple paint-do, for a fast gift to someone in town...
i should have spent more time and made it very nice, but--
i was not sure when i'd get over there again, and it was more for a nice
memory, etc...
acrylics, small, on a paint-board type material:
photo came out too blury, :(
about the only really good art, here is the ground, :)

hey there say, paul... oh my... was so close, yet so far...
we had to drive back over the hill, with my mom, along too, ... sis was so tired and had to drive back OVER the highway 17... so we just could not even manage a short visit...
someday... :)
thanks for being open to share...
we had a lot of busy hours with my grandkids, and early hours, as well...
was a miracle trip, my SECOND, since my daddy died...
it is actually a 'piece of artwork' all its own:
seeing family again, after so many years...
:)
