Stranger in Paradise

Sun Oct 21, 2007, 12:50 AM
  • Mood: Amazed
  • Listening to: Fly My Pretties
  • Reading: The Vintners Luck -Elizabeth Knox
  • Watching: Just saw 'The Vintners Luck'
Traveling while working so feeling a bit like the song that Tonny Bennet sings, but also excited for so many things to do. Currently in New Zealand, but open to new stuff, new places, if it goes that way, without hurry.

Learning to paint and draw the figure in my free time, but doing shader and production scripting for a living.

Would love to do an interactive art exhibition someday and become good at painting portraits so I do some for my family and friends.

Craving for learning and improving, but also resting and experiencing the outdoors...

Many 'maybe someday', but I'm already grateful if this is as good as it gets....

Such very nice taste... Larsson, Larsen, Denys... and Rand on top of that! :D

Hi there, sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the comment, it's great that we have similar taste since I have found quite uncommon to share entusiasm about romantic realism art with others! I'll definitely be in touch to chat more and look at your art, which I find inspiring and hopefully I'll get to do stuff on my own soon to show as well. Best wishes - Gabriel

No problem at all.
Glad you liked it, and I'm looking forward to see more of your photos and drawings :D

By the way.. got a print of Bryans "Stargazer" just recently (as a reward for being active in his blog). Very proud to have it up on my wall :D
