Apparently today is twice as awesome. I am so incredibly excited about this series. This is the heaviest geeking out that I have done in the past 3 years. I think these pieces are finally pushing my plateau. I fought so hard to learn to use acrylic paint and now it is definitely time to reject that ability.
I think I will soon be changing up the imagery in these too. I want to do more power line pieces like I had been working on in the past month but utilizing this same method. I feel very interested in how these pieces are more dependent on the materials than previous works.
Anyway, back to work. I was just excited and wanted to share.
Peace
-Mike

Mike, I found you completely by accident. I really like your stuff.I am a 73-year-old Brit and I play around with bits of wood, emulsion paint and a high-powered sander – when my wife gives me permission to go to the workshop.I hadn't thought about them as artwork. They usually get turned into mirrors or clocks. The family keeps stealing them so i never get to exhibit or sell very much.I tart them up with small (1/4") and large ( 3/4" rose head) hand-made nails – especially if there are nail holes already in the wood.- anyway it stops me getting wistful about being retired.Paul 4th July – (isn't there something about that date?)
Paul,Your work sounds interesting; right up my alley. I'm glad to hear that you are spending your seventies playing around with some art projects. My father is about there and I keep hoping that he will start a similar trend.Thanks for reading.MikeOh and I hear there was something about the fourth, mostly from US citizens though. I've also heard that nothing happened in 1812. At least one Brit told me that.
