Yeah, maybe they do see themselves a bit.  I don't know.  As long as I get them thinking at least.  Just to put that bug in their head.  I once read an article in Art in America with a huge debate over whether art should (be allowed, that is) have a moral or didactic stance to it.  I didn't think that was an issue.  Isn't that why we live in America?  I'll get off my soapbox now.

Hi Don, thanks for the compliments!  I've been told my work has some "bite" to it before.  I'm glad you found it humorous.  For the most part, people do, but I've also been told they've been "horrified" by it.  Oh well.  Thanks for stopping by my site.  I enjoyed looking at your masks.  I could see some of these as huge, 6-foot paintings.  I find the close-up ones to be very powerful.

Don,

Thanks for visiting (& commenting) on my work.

Your masks are very striking. They hold together nicely as a body of work but you are clearly expanding and exploring in each one. I particularly like "Insomnia" and "Frame of Mind". Good work!

Don, thanks for visiting and your kind words about my work. I actually have to go to Ada, Oklahoma tomorrow to do a house portrait. I'll grab a few more photos to hopefully do another painting or two.

Your work is great...nice since of color and design. Well done!

Hello Don, I love the paintings of the masks! They look so lively. Where is the art culture in Vegas?
