But where's the grease in that? ← If you don't have the artistic insight and inspiration to see it, there's really not much hope for you. ← you must be referring to the Japanese whaling; thereby creating puddles of sperm grease on the waves. An obvious point, but also much indicative of your fake artistic attitude. Not all paintings are a mere politico-social critique, you shallow hack!

scottb Posted September 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 (edited) I lived the bad art museum. I was laughing out loud and had everyone at the office wondering. The critiques are hilarious! for example: A blood curdling scream from the fires below. A lost soul cries out in agony, eyes upward, forever to be taunted by the reclining though erect Adonis just out of reach. This brilliant reworking of one of Art's oldest subjects -- recasting the cloven hoofed, behorned one into a youthful virile stud is a refreshingly original treatment of an age-old theme.

joeface Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 I love art and I'm slowly diving into it in my spare time. No painting for me yet, I've just gone through a beginning drawing class and am now starting up life drawing, which is a pain in the arse. The drawing below is based on a "grid over a photo" type project from my beginning drawing class. It took a while to get this far but I lost patience and didn't finish. here is my photo on which it was based: joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man with the Golden Arm Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Joeface - Nice! great attention to the hands and feet. always the first things to be set aside I find. while there are many things to check out I immediately thought of Trina Schart Hyman's book "The Fortune Tellers"".

Guest akanalog Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 i threw up a few of my paintings i have images of on my computer. not the best images-bad slide scans mostly and not the most efficient way of looking at them-but here are a few if you want to bother. www.adamame.com/p1.swf www.adamame.com/p2.swf www.adamame.com/p3.swf www.adamame.com/p4.swf www.adamame.com/p5.swf www.adamame.com/p6.swf www.adamame.com/p7.swf www.adamame.com/p8.swf www.adamame.com/p9.swf www.adamame.com/p10.swf www.adamame.com/p11.swf www.adamame.com/p12.swf www.adamame.com/p13.swf www.adamame.com/p14.swf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted September 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 That's beautiful!!! Wow That is a print of his. We have one of his originals but I don't have any pictures. It's a bit strange in that he only does trees. It's interesting to see how his trees have evolved over the past few years. This one is typical of his early work.
