Yeah but then I can be a pessimist when it comes to art here in W.A. sorry I should be more careful with what I say...

Love it! I just love the dirty touch. your technique is so perfectionistic that if it was without the "dirt" it would be just another pop art work (amazingly done, but still..). I love how you are not afraid to "ruin" the beauty, and that's what makes it not only beautiful, but great.

ha, its funny that the "dirtying" process is thew most time consuming part.
I spend so long making even a simple drip and assessing why I made it...
It almost painful

The final touches are always the most tricky, especially when the whole work looks great already, because it's either making it much better or completely destroying all the hard work you've done so far. so I understand the frustration, but it was worth it!

Yeah, They sell high end fashion and show art. (the future of NYC galleries, ha)
I think in the past they have mostly dealt with photography and print.
I might be their first "painting show"

Mannn do I love your work! Hahah, everything you post makes me go a little slack-jawed. :3 I am so, so jealous, yet I don't have even a fraction of the drive or discipline to get to your kind of artistic level (at least, not at this point in my life, hahah). Anyway-! I love watching you create and experiment, and I'm sure your show will be a smash hit! Good luck and have fun~ <3

Well I'm definitely going, but tomorrow might be a bit hectic...
I prefer to look at the art rather than getting pushed through it.
But maybe

It was of course very crowded last night, but it you have a free day you need to go before it closes. February 16th is the last day.

Yea, I can't imagine how packed it's going to be, but he's going to be there in person tonight. Might buy the book for the show and try to get him to sign it.

i don't really like the expression of her face but the technique is amazing. i've always wanted to do some paintings with flat surroundings and realistic portrait, but i've had a problem with oil paints since they're too slow for me and i get bored of slow work.
hope your show turns out great!
