I like hell boy....lots of planes and a cubist-feel....would look good as cast iron piece....maybe thats just the sculptor in me.....seriously, put down the marker and play with some clay.....use a knife and cut those planes in space.
I can relate to the blog entry on being interviewed for jobs by youthful employers.....like the last three college presidents who hired me, one who is a "kid" in his forties. Β Maybe it is I who have aged? oh crap

Thank you for taking the time to peruse my wares and the kind words! I haven't been on the site for a number of months. It is good to be back. I plan on adding a lot more work in the weeks to come. BTW, I haven't had a chance to look through your gallery yet, but from the quick glance I took, I believe I'm in for a real treat later this evening!

Treats are nice! *smile* I'm glad to hear that you are intending to add pieces to your Gallery. That kinda talk warrants a return visit!

You are very welcome. I am a "recovering" commercial artist (26 years in the trenches of the US advertising market) and trying to get back to my artistic roots. Getting involved here seems to be a good place to start. I have some of my pencil work I'll scan and post soon. I would appreciate your thoughts on it once it is up on the site.
