Wow, you rock greycat, these are really good! My favorite 3 are the ones below. How long does it take you to paint one (on average)? The middle one below with the faces is awesome.

Wow......some great stuff there, greycat !!!!
I really like that one with the faces.
I would really like to see this, but when I typed the address in I kept getting "No Results Found". What am I doing wrong? Can you help?

Maybe this would work Kitten. (I don't know if I'm supposed to do that, but there it is.....lol)
Love it love it love it love it!
I absolutely freaking love it :)
Your style is a lot like my father's, only you're much better (don't tell him pls).
It looks great, greycat. There's something very calming about your work that I like.
Thanks everyone, it means a lot to me to finally get some of it out there. I have been slaving away over a website on and off for months, then someone finally suggested the blogspot space, which is great! Thanks for the comments, I will let you all know when i have a show. TheBorken; The large photographic piece with the faces doesnt actually exist in that state any more, it was a photo sculpture 6 x 6 with large steel boxes. It has long since been dismantled but i could probably make a print of it. I am glad you like it.
Oh, and the time it takes to paint varies...the larger paintings can take a few days (i dont like to wait too long cos the paint is harder to move around then), the smaller ones a few hours. Each one takes a long time in my head though before i actually get down to work!
Lovely! Most artistic!!!

That's odd! That's what I typed into Google, but it didn't seem to work. Anyway, very impressive work, greycat. I also was taken with the faces. Nicely done.
Thank you all so much for the kind words! :)
greycat - have you ever sold any of your paintings?
wow awesome work, greycat! Amazing!
DS certainly has a lot of talented people among its members!
Yes, i have sold a few of my paintings; several of the little houses and a few of the larger paintings. I really need to get my butt in gear and paint more, hard with a full time job...the typical story. ::)
Wow. At least you've managed to sell some of yours. Mine just sits and collects dust. I haven't done any painting since the kids. .... sigh.... maybe when I have more time, I can paint and write more.
u paint Lise? cool. I write poetry.
What kind of painting do you do Lise? Maybe DS should have a gallery...everyone post their poems, pics., art etc! I was meaning to ask Tenkani, is your dad a well known artist or does he have a website to view?
Some of the abstract ones reminded me of my own demented paintings.
And you can always count on an artist to find a tulip that looks like female genitalia. [A onclick="addImg('icon/icon_smile_sleepy.gif')" href="jvascript:void(0)"](//vny!://www.discovervancouver.com/forum/icon_smile_sleepy.gif)[/A][/DIV]
Oil based paint mostly but I haven't touched the stuff in ages. I tend to do a lot more sketching. I dunno about putting it here on DS.... my art isn't that good.
Poetry...... I love poetry. How about a sample, SD?
Back in the good old days when my hubby and I were courtin', he used to write me poems upon poems. Now it's more like, 'honey, where's my dinner? or where's my socks?' *sigh*
Hey Raging Poodle, can you post a painting of yours?
[A onclick="addImg('icon/icon_smile_big.gif')" href="jvascript:void(0)"](//vny!://www.discovervancouver.com/forum/icon_smile_big.gif)[/A] You wouldn't be able to sleep tonight if I did. [img onclick=smile(this.src) src="vny!://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/scared0010.gif[/img]
Why Raging Poodle, I had no idea you painted yourself naked. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/10.gif)
