A bit of Franz Marc?
Thanks for the comparison.
I was/am influenced by Jahangir Sabavala, Svetoslav Roerich, . . . . .

only discovered Franz Marc when someone pointed out his painting in a book some three years back. After that i did a web search and saw more of his work. Great artist.

Ah I was just bumming around trying to find landscape painters here (surprisingly difficult!) and found your stuff striking. Everyone looks a bit like someone else so it's easy to pluck names out the air. But I can't look at 'The Fate of the Animals' without a shiver going down my spine

Your gallery is lovely. I would like to see in an actual show. Have you done any before?

dougofakkad In reply to V8Sploo [2007-06-24 17:11:42 +0000 UTC]

Yep, a couple with my Uni and couple in independent groups. Nothing hugely formal in a professional gallery though.

Ooh. I have a friend whom paints with a similar energetic, descriptive stroke action except he's partial to trees and nature landscapes.
