These are a few of the newer surreal sea/landscapes based off one I posted in a previous thread, I am showing them in my first gallery show next month (Aug)... They are oil on canvas:







I am finally finding more serious venues and outlets for my art, and I'm glad people are seeing it!

Thank you for looking!

Nice work, and congrats on your first gallery show!
I wish you the best of luck, not that you'll need it!

Nice colors and composition. I like it. Kind of reminds of The Codex Seraphinianus. Good luck on your show.

Thank you for the support and replies.

The Codex Seraphinianus is pretty amazing work, thanks for the reference Skunkape, I was influenced by the earlier technical drawings of life on earth I guess. Some of the very first drawings of birds of paradise and orchids are so surreal they dont seem real.

I think I will still need a small degree of luck as Seattle just doesn't have the gallery scene to support all the artists here, yet we do have other resources, like artist grants and nonprofit orgs and rent controlled artist lofts/studios.

Even though Ive painted for a long time, I'm new to the artist's working world; networking and finding galleries and such.

This series is loaded in my car and I'm hanging it at the gallery tonight, and I couldn't be more excited!

Thank you all for the kind words and input!

Wow I just spotted your art after getting bored on ats and looking at the forums page. Really awesome work, well done you. I hope your show went well, it feels good to have people you don't know looking at your creations, even if none sold you have opened people's eyes and expanded their world. Excellent.a reply to: Aliquandro

Wow... Awesome! I love your line work and choice of colors. I'm terrified of color choices like that in my own work. You can always tell when someone is having fun with their creations. I don't even need to ask you, glad you had a blast!

Thank you for your kind words! I LOVE to show my work.

That particular show sold nothing, but that series has sold 3 pieces so far, and it's moving from a classy massage clinic to a high end salon next month. My fish have sold best tho, I should post a thread of them


The work I'm most proud of is my Bunnies vs. Pandas series, which tells a kinda Taoist version of good vs evil. I have almost 30 pieces ready and am now planning on releasing it as a fine art graphic novel.

I think I gotta get busy posting.

I'm not afraid of colors, and since I use oils it's easier to work with your mistakes. I mostly didn't pay attention to the rules as much as I just paint to make it 'feel' right.

I have so much fun I can't stop creating new directions, each of which ends up a large body of work that finds a pertinent venue for the subject matter. It means it keeps creating more fun, and honestly it's HIGHLY addictive


Thank you SO much for checking my art out.

Thank you very much, it's powerful to make people smile... and it took me some time to come to grips with my skills. I need to create some seriously worthy and powerful work in my lifetime, and the path is directly in front of me with eyes wide open.

I promise ATS I will post a new thread of my art this weekend! You deserve to see wonderful things
