"Red African Daisy"

That's probably enough, for now. Most of these paintings are oil on canvas and 16" X 20" or larger. I have several others, but some I have sold or given to people. Please let me know what you think (besides that the picture quality is not great...I already know that.

)

Thank you, Wolf.

I enjoy it very much...almost to the point of obsession. I am in my studio every day and have a hard time taking my focus away from the art, long enough to go do the marketing work it takes to get paintings sold. :P

In the "Sunshine Gal" painting... on closer examination I'm sure she's supposed to be holding a parasol of some sort, but when I first looked at it I swear I thought she was about to hack at something with a huge machete.

I really like "Red African Daisy."

I thought it was a whip, or perhaps a riding crop. Along with the briefcase, I thought it expressed the artist's frustation with the roles that women are expected to play today by being masters in the business world, while still presenting one's self as feminine.

I'm no good at interpreting poetry, either.

actually, she is holding onto some sort of bar or cord...standing up high on some kind of construction beam...but you really can't tell. I took a fashion picture from the 1930's as my inspiration for that one.

I really REALLY like the African Daisey, about how big is it? My second fav is the Sunshine Gal. You use really intense colors, each one is neat in it's own way. Thanks for sharing, and please post more as the mood strikes you!

The African Daisy is 16" X 20". Thanks for the comments!

i just LOVE the Falling Through Time one. Its VERY cool. I want it in my loungeroom!

kerosene · 09-28-2005, 01:09 AM

Thank you, sparkie. I spent a lot of time on that painting.

LabRat · 09-28-2005, 09:17 AM

Falling Through Time kind of freaks me out actually. Maybe because it reminds me of those machines in The Matrix?

wolf · 09-28-2005, 10:57 AM

I was thinking "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure."

kerosene · 09-28-2005, 12:49 PM

I'll take that as a compliment. Thank you.
