#52 and the end

so that's it...and a little ahead of schedule...

hey all...

i really hope you're enjoying my little journey in paint. if you're wondering why i haven't been giving a little commentary on each painting... well, i have...
just not here... if you go to my MYSPACE page and check out the blog, you'll get your answers.

have you ever had one of those days where you don't know what face to wear? you look into the mirror and you don;t know who you want to be? maybe, it doesn't matter---because no matter who you make yourself, you won't be satisfied. so why bother?

this is a big one. it's the world in a urinal. somtimes you just need to be obvious.

i came to the realization with this piece that i was a cartoonist--- and no amount of trying to be real was going to shake that.

this is my eye--- a window into my soul... yeah, right...

this painting shows lonliness. my fiance was away for a few days and i didn't think it would affect me as much as it did.

in keeping with the theme of "what's in front of frank" i decided to paint one of my drawing board lamps. i think i look at this lamp more than i look at anything else in my life. i haven't really gotten into the "introspective" groove yet--- but in the 49 pieces i have yet to paint, i'm sure it'll only be a matter of time.

#1 & #2

and so the madness begins.

i got a little ahead of myself by doing two paintings---i'm very excited about what i my produce this year. i already have the Rome Art and Community Center lined up to display the complete 52 piece show in August 2007. way cool!

the self portrait was a bit of a departure for me. i rarely to anything realistically. it took me about 4 days off and on to complete---almost an eternity compared to what my normal time frame is.

#2 took me only a few hours. when you hit a stride go with it before you trip over something.
