More like Pollock or Rothko but I will take Vincent anyday.
Alright you asked for it.
(Lightings and croppings are not ideal, some of them are close up shots also)
Had enough? I don't have most of these anymore. I gave most them away as gifts. But I gonna get back into it soon after I get settle into my new house. Most exciting part about it is now I can have a room just for painting and Music studio. Yay!

I always have had a mental image as Canada as a land of Monty Pythons. Of extreme anti-Americanism brought about by feeling smaller than the United States... While also being physically larger! Someone else brought up Monty Python and it hits the nail on the head! Note: Most of my familiarity with Canada comes from South Park, so please don't take it to heart

For some reason I didn't see your photo initially. Try uploading it on your profile's space and not on imageshack. That is of course if others don't see your photo as well... Btw, where are you?

I could see Patrinos' photo initially. By the way good to see you back Patrinos!
And to everyone else who has posted a photo of themselves or their artwork - you all look fantastic! King Kang - 2nd one down, and those towards the bottom are my favourite. Great Work!
Might post another pic soon.

| We allot better than that....lol I take no ofrence to that comment...all in good taste I am sure. Although some parts of Canada is very Anti-American.
|
The parts of Canada that are anti-American are primarily located between Quebec and Montreal. Those are also the parts that are mostly anti-Canadian. "Parlez faux francais?)
Most Canadians are no different than Americans, and, in large areas of the Canadian west, would not mind being part of the US. (Those western Canadians, for the most part, have never seen a maple leaf.)
Some people need to think other than in terms of bad cartoon shows.

Nice paintings - and I can see you are experimenting different styles.
In my younger years I painted a bit myself, and will probably take it up again now that I retired.
I like them - especially the last half of them - and maybe the first, are very good. They are not far from the works of a danish painter from the Cobra Group, J.V. Martin.
Unfortunately, his works was not highly appreciated until after his death - but you have a better chance

Thanks, Knights and Northman.
I love reading biographies about artists, musicians, poets, etc. Reality can be so much more dramatic than any fiction. I recommend Lust for Life (novel), a 1934 biographical novel about Vincent Van Gogh, written by Irving Stone to everyone who are interested art. There is also a movie made after the book with same title. Young Kirk Douglas plays van Gogh and Anthony Quinn plays Gauguin. Here is one of my favorite scene....
A few years back I was in a bad car accident and couldn't do much for a couple of month accept sit around at home and get pilled out. I was reading Mark Rothko: A Biography by James EB Breslin - 1993 around that time. So one day I got inspired enough to do what my parents tease me as 'something your five year old nephew can do'. That was when I found this site too actually. I am fully recovered now without any serious complications. Looking back, that accident has changed how I see the life itself, and the endless struggle to find right time, space and company and activity to enjoy and grow same time.
I have developed some taste for Post Impressionism, American Abstract Expressionism, and Russian Suprematism and Minimalism. Now that I'm a mod for Modern Culture, I think I'm gonna start some threads on those in the future, hopefully in a month or so. I know we do have some historical art/architecture threads in AE, but I don't think there are too many Modern or 20th century Art, if any.
