I choose the colors from the little tiles
 .I acheive shading AFTER the paint has dried, by rubbing powdered pigment into the dried paint blobs. Like a pastel drawing. |

I see Benton and Grant Wood Cincinnatus, Did you ever see any of Walter Darby Bannard's work? He worked with poured paint on canvas (on the floor) and then he would scrap and trowel it into puddles using a large window squeegee. The painings were large scale and non-objective, but the use of medium and scale are quite similar to what you are doing. PS the clouds reming me of some of Georgia Okeefe's late cloud paintings. |

Funny how "some" people always see certain themes. I bet you think about "cock" all the time, huh? Look at a donut, think "gee that reminds me of cock". See a car, think "gee that reminds me of cock". Spill some paint, think "gee that reminds me of cock". Hey, whatever makes you happy, sport. |

You do have talent I will say that. It is not my cup of tea but I can see how people will appreciate it. Now if you asked me what I "saw" in this painting, I would say the center subject looks like a bowl of dismembered teddy bears. I am serious that was my first impression. I like this painting better than the first one. Not because of the dismemberd teddy bears.

Thanks.
It's just paint, and it's important to always remember that it's just paint. Secondary imagery is a bonus. Make it pink, and people will see "flesh". Pour a blob, and people will see biomorphic/anthropomorphic imagery, regardless of color. |

Well, I have wondering how long you were going to make us wait for a new painting.
I see bird clouds - I think they are birds with symbiotic clouds surrounding them. On the other hand, the green objects seem to be straining toward the clouds, so maybe those are receptacles on the surface of the clouds. This painting could also illustrate the interaction of all nature - water/liquid from lake, to the green objects, to the clouds, to the mountain top, and finally back to the lake to close the circle. |

I like it.
I'd always wondered why most of the things you post have roundish "blob" shapes appearing in them. Now I know you did it by pouring paint as opposed to brushing it. Explains the blob shapes. |

Too much dick and not enough pussy and tits for my taste. It would look best in a gallery named "The Ramrod" or maybe in a male prison cafeteria or on a long manly ocean cruise.

A poured blob of paint is always a "Rorschach Test".
It reveals what's on one's mind. Apparently, some people spent a lot of time thinking about dick. I just pour the paint on the floor. You do the thinking. |

That's definitely "unique."
Before you stated that the painting was made by simply (you know what I mean, no dis here) pouring paint, I assumed that everything was purposely shaped to look like that. Now that I know that the shapes were a random occurrence, I'm no longer trying to figure out what message you were trying to convey. I guess I'm the type that thinks artists are always trying to convey something trhough their work. But, I, like many of the other dudes here, also see a lot of green "members." Sheesh, what's wrong with me?!

You got it. The composition was "landscape". Pour a green blob for each tree, where each tree would be. Repeat. See if it look s "cool" when it's done. The content, the process, the scale, ALL have deep historical roots. That provides a decent starting point, for those who want to delve deeper. Or you can just look and see. |

I too saw alot of phallic trees, but it is still an impressive painting nonetheless. The second one was even more interesting. I say we should put together a little online ARFCOM art gallery and showcase your work as well as any art by other members.

I have little appreciation for the visual arts (no offense intended, of course), so my questions are largely technical.
1. Why do you use aluminum as a substrate/surface/"canvas"? 2. What got you started in this? 3. How do the galleries where you show your work view your politics, particularly your affinity toward firearms? Do they even know? (I'm under the impression that art galleries aren't exactly havens of conservative thought.) 4. I will show much ignorance here, and no offense is intended. It's a pretty picture, but who would pay $5k for it? 5. Do you turn a profit on these? (Aluminum and house paint - I guess it'd be hard not to....) |

It's just something that had to be done.
I DID get let go from a job at the Museum of Modern Art for "acting like a Marine".
Once it's sold, value is established. The buyer then owns a $5,000 painting. Would you pay $5k for this can of "Artist's Shit"?  No? I would. It just sold at auction for $20,000. Is the buyer stupid? I doubt it.
Gallons and gallons of paint. The ones that I sell, I profit. But the rent for the studio, and the others that did not sell make it a losing venture. |

To know one’s self well enough to be in your profession and to create " Art " for the need to express yourself is enviable to say the least. I have trouble wearing one hat in my life. I applaud your efforts even though I cant say the piece speaks to me. ( I see penis's too ) Good luck with the sale, ask $20,000.00. |

I dig it, nice work! I could defiantly hang something like that in my house.
I do think that paying $20K for a can of some strangers feces is a little bizarre though. I know art is in the eye of the beholder, but what artistic talent does it take to shit in a can? I mean I do it every morning, but don’t get paid for it. lol |

It's not artistic talent, it's marketing talent. The artists sells an idea, not the art. New suggested title for the first painting "Cocks and Rocks". (scurrying back to the left side of my brain and hiding) |
