A real inspiration to me and millions of others.

The account isn’t a shell. Doesn’t give me red flags.

I’ve read and now observe to a degree, that art about shape is thought of as somehow, antagonizing to some, while provoking to others. I love it so much that it’s not easy for me to articulate why people seem to not prefer shapes, I get more a positive response from forms rather than shapes...

Things do turn around, good things happening give me critical perspective as well. Some of my paintings have negative upvotes, and the collector doesn’t mind. I got a nice ‘me gusta’ comment one one that didn’t get upvoted, people are smarter than you think sometimes, especially art people.

I hope it goes thru, too. The buyer sounds like a handsome country man who knows what he’s doing, smart, too. I used pink, blue, and purple in different values to show relational reactions of color and varying ranges and warms and coldness of those colors. The shapes come from drawing from my...

I upload Art to Imgur, and last night after I posted this and another painting a man from Missouri contacted me about procuring multiple paintings. He sounds legitimate.

I like the shoes and the apple red color, this is cool, an abstract coming off the canvas.. I also like the almost 2/3s 1/3 maybe even 1/4 way you cut the background colors..

I think I’ve only given two paintings away. I think they mean something to them..

Dave that story is such an inspiration, I gotta start sending art to tv personalities, lol, once maybe 4 or 5 years ago the brewery I was hanging paintings at had a comedy show and a tv personality family filmed there.. wish I wasn’t so timid maybe I could have made it a bigger opportunity..

I have been able to define a lot about art lately due to reading, writing, looking at paintings by other artists and come to figure out a lot about how to make certain shapes, specifically from drawing the negative space from this painting, the edges of shapes and the edge of the painting, which...

That is an excellent suggestion, I need to use my blog more, and my website. I think you know something Jo ;) you have seen a lot of abstracts, and I bet you know more than you think, that being said, I learn something new everyday even if it’s something I’ve read 4 times before it’s like I...

It took lots of consideration before the background colors were decided. The geometric patterns keeps the painting balanced, and it does add interest, it kind of can symbolize anything, too, symbols can have a lot of shapes, maybe all symbols have a shape, so the mood, feeling, moment, you could...

Hi Myse I stay in a small town, too, there are nice forums to talk on site, it’s nice, happy I found it, bet you’ll dig it.

I will watch.
