Robot Graveyard #3 - Disassembly

This one has a tenuous link to the robot graveyard series, namely the coffin-like shape in the lower right corner, the geometric shapes throughout and the cartoonish color scheme. I look at it as a disassembly of the various parts of the robot graveyard world. A serious work of art if you ask me [snicker-snicker].

"Robot Graveyard #3, Disassembly" is painted in acrylic and, as best I can recall, weighs in at around 24x24" [I was too lazy to run out to the garage/studio to measure it just now].

tuxedo dance

Admittedly, I spent no time naming this painting; tuxedo dance may be as good a name as anything but it sounds a little weak. Any help?

I painted this from a photo taken at my brother's wedding reception [my brother is the one in the suit, dancing with his new bride]. Size: 30x48", acrylic and oil.

[it's been so long since my last post - just under a month - I'll try to do better!]

Robot Graveyard #2

Robot Graveyard #2, 24x30", $400

The second in the robot graveyard series came on fast, over before it began. This is basically a re-imagining of the first one. I like it a lot. That's about all there is to say about out it. I hope you like it too!

Robot Graveyard #1

Robot Graveyard #1, 18x24", $350

This painting started the same way as "30 Minute Commute" with the same idea in mind. But something happened early on: a robot graveyard was conceived, and this idea took over [I couldn't help myself]. I love the color combination here, reminds me of early cartoons. I'm looking forward to exploring this robot graveyard theme in future paintings.

30 Minute Commute

30 Minute Commute, 30x30", $425

This was a fun painting to make, and I like the finished product. It evolved over a period of two weeks [I even messed with it in Photoshop once to see what it would look like after a few changes]. It is definitely a further departure from realism but is still in the realm of objectivism.

Newest Painting

This is one turned out well. Doesn't have a title yet but it is 30x48", $900 and very colorful. This is the sort of painting I've been concentrating on lately -- colorful, confetti-scapes that shout out, "Fresh & Interesting!" - or maybe something more spontaneous like, "Whoot! Woot! W-sup!"

At any rate, this painting style just makes me smile.

Unnamed Landscape

I struggled a while before I was satisfied with the composition and color palette of this one . . . I suppose struggled is a bit much, it simply took longer than expected. The color combination is at best quirky . . . or it could be considered whimsical, I guess, which sounds much better than quirky to me.

Anyway, let me know what you think. Also, if you have the time, please help me think of a name. Preferably something . . . whimsical. Like say, "The Circus Moves On," or "Confetti Landscape" perhaps.

Oh yeah, and it is 30x40" and $800 [unless the new name adds value to it] . . .

School Yard

This Painting is called School Yard. It is 24x48" [that's two feet tall by four feet wide] and it's price is $600.

For some reason this makes me think of a time long ago [just a reoccuring dream of mine, now] when recess lasted for years and the girls made necklaces out of clover flowers while the boys were pulling the stingers out of honey bees . . . well, I was anyway.

Vote on this

The painting above is one I've just started; it's 2 1/2 feet tall and 4 feet wide. It's not quite finished, but it's at a point just past the opening -- to use chess terminology -- and deep into the middlegame. What I'd like is a little feedback -- tell me what you think I should add, subtract or change to make this a finished piece. I'd also like your thoughts on a title. Just click comment below -- I'd greatly appreciate it!
