    Too bad this can’t be a little bigger. I can’t make out most of the script. The pattern they create though is really wild. It accentuates the central figure which looks like it’s about to shoot skyward with a transcendant joy.

  • I will post on some other sites soon I think – should be able to be viewed laregr there. This began as a preiminary for the painting I did for Stryker the other day, and then it decided (as they so often do) that it wanted to take off on it’s own.

    there are many unknown things we must face, one of those things may be, ‘where are the 501s’?

    I’m too busy being enlightened and looking at this painting right now to care!

  • this started as my prelim for the jesus painting for you, then like so many others decided to be pushy and evolve his won life – and where are those damn 501s?
