Description This work is based on this great piece of stock- [link] .
My work is approximately 22 x 15 inches, started with watercolor and gradually included marker and colored pencil to complete. I started this at the end of last school year and decided it need to be resolved and unstapled from my watercolor board this morning. Thanks for any comments or suggestions- Mike

Thank you, the movement in the original photo is what grabbed me. I really wanted to capture at least that general feeling- Mike

I remember when you started this.
Never imagined it would turn out like this.
Good Job.

Oh and by the way... there is a skull or head on the background. ( on the right side )


After analyzing it I realize that this piece resembles how i am feeling right now.

Revitalized

Thanks Jeff. How's things at the big uni.? I hadn't seen the skull before that! Nice snag! I'm getting that revitilized feeling too. Feel free to stop by the school or even my house, maybe even grab a couple of canvas panels to play with- Mike

the Uni. is pretty tuff right now... I got used to being home during brake. But im getting into it again. I heard the school is getting tablets... and that you might teach a digital painting only class.....
I think thats pretty amazing, i hope people take advantage of it.
I got a Intuous 3 wacom for christmas. YAy..
been painting with it. nothing amazing yet, but fun
ill upload soon.

I've been working on the tablet thing since the begining of last year. It's just taken that long for them to listen. I probably won't teach a dig. painting class exclusively, it'll most likely be a part of the current classes. I'm looking forward to seeing what you can pull off with your new toy. -Mike

Alot of my stuff just kinda hangs out, at some point maybe I'll try to get some into a gallery. I think this one's going to Colorado to a friend, but I'll come up with something else for you eventually- MD
