Oh my god, this one caught my eye, and it won't let go. It is amazing...

I'm trying to figure out exactly what it's saying to me...but there's something indescribably compelling about it.

Great work!!

Hahah...well it means whatever you like it to mean. It's more about the visual impact and your response to that than having any hidden, preconceived meaning on my behalf! I am glad you like it!

ahhh. amazing piece

well balanced in the colors, the full explotation of the splater effect for the image (the eye, especialy th eyebrows), gives it dynamic potence and makes this Gustav Klimt tame gold composition in a liquid direction (towards right). an eye of a king, serious, wise and golden.

the format is another quality I like in your works.

keep up the creative flow and I hope you paint and sell many more.

woow! god i love what you do, you have the most amazing ability to paint raw emotion with such assurance. I really think the skill that it take to create abstaction well, is underestimated. This is truely stunning. Do you have a web site of your own that you sell from,or a place that you display works for sale?

Yep, another great one. I enjoy the fact that you are integrating the shapes of your canvas' into the work. This is bringing your painting to the next level.

Wow thank you! It's great to hear your comments and appreciation!
Yes it was a natural progression to move into this area, I use so many different canvas sizes and paint up to 6 paintings on any given day, so it makes me push myself further when i'm so hard at it!
Thanks again

Hi,

This one was around the $1000 mark.

Of course I'm emerging so this is in no way a true indication of what artists receieve after a number of years (I've only been selling fulltime for the past 12 months)

That's great!! Here in my country (Kosovo), they barely buy any painting, dont appreciate it at all, ang go buy stupid artificial paintings that are like 15-30 euros,.. that makes us few artists really feel bad!! and even if someone buys any real painting it would be a very low price!!!

Yeah that's tricky- but luckily we have the opportunity to sell online these days! I sell a lot locally, but then a tonne internationally! Thank goodness for that or it would be more like the days of Van gogh, not selling a painting at all!
