Thank you so much!! I may take you up on that. I’ve been focusing on painting from trips we’ve taken (The Rockies and The Everglades have been our two most recent), but we don’t have another trip planned until May (The Grand Canyon!!). So I have some time to paint something not national park oriented.

Hey, thanks very much!! I do appreciate it.
Used to be I inked all my lines on co dot dot dot missioned house portraits, but that was just one more inessential thing I stopped doing to speed things up. However, the guy who co (la de dah, music playing here) missioned this one, who's a damn good comics artist himself, wanted those black lines in there to give more of the comic book look. I didn't think about it at the time, but it was the right call — the black lines help balance out that super-vibrant red (even if it also creates kind of a CAD/illustration look, rather than something painterly.

Looks like the cover art for a metal album

Also you have full rights to use one of my photos to paint if you ever need inspiration.

Best.. movie... Ever. I was lucky enough to buy a ticket and take the ride and see it in the theater when it came out. Loved it ever since. I've shown that movie to a lot of people. I don't think most get it.

Just went and checked out some your photos! Really nice work! Photography can be tricky too. Also dig your other name, Raul Duke. I just made my girlfriend watch Fear & Loathing for the first time last weekend. She didn’t quite “get it”, but I will forever get chills when he starts talking about “seeing the high water mark where the wave crashed and then rolled back” referring to the hippie movement.
