New painting for May show - sneak peek #3

Sneak peek #3 of the new painting for the upcoming May show:

THAT LAUGH! - last laugh

This is an excerpt from my latest painting called 'THAT LAUGH!'. It is a visual feast of terror, laughter and anxiety and I can't wait to show it to you all! Come chat with me at the YES Montreal Art Expo, March 20-21st and to see the painting in person. (I'll post the final painting in it's entirety after the event.) I will have many other works on display and for sale too. http://www.yesmontreal.ca/en/artists/library/1345

THAT LAUGH! - almost done!

So, I'm just adding the finishing touches to the painting 'THAT LAUGH!'. Find out what's so funny when you see the painting at the YES Art Expo March 19-21! Info here: http://www.yesmontreal.ca/en/artists/library/1345

And the laughter continues...

Hope you all had a great weekend! Here is more development from the 'THAT LAUGH!' painting still in progress...

THAT LAUGH! - more laughter

I've been concentrating all my efforts on the 'THAT LAUGH!' #painting once again since I finished my piece for the skateboard art show next Saturday. Here is more of the daunting detail:

THAT LAUGH! - more progress

Sorry for the lack of posts, my friends. Here is some more progress from the 'THAT LAUGH!' painting.

Still blocking in the base colors here. The lightning will be painted over. It is painted here so I know where to blend the highlights in the sky. Since the lightning has to fit around the text (the laughter that will be painted last), I can't arbitrarily paint it anywhere. If you look close you can see the pencil outlines of where I retraced the characters.

SOLD!

Yesterday was a great day! These original works are all no longer available.

'Night of the Grimace' SOLD!

'Grungebob Scarepants' SOLD!

'Preschool Shooting' SOLD!

Tout fait! (all done) The idea for this painting came about from trying to rationalize just what the heck Grimace IS. What is he? He's this large, loveable purple cone shaped guy. He doesn't LOOK like any animal, nor resemble anything on the menu - just what is he?!? His origin remains a mystery. As if he just appeared one night...
