I'm just trying to get "on report."

Seriously, I just calls 'em as I sees 'em. I was even taken with the painting on wood that you were just starting on. If you did nothing else to it, it's really cool!

Thanks, Shawnee. I actually am almost finished with the painting I was doing on wood. That reminds me that I have some other stuff to post on the blog. I will have to get those up there soon.

I did get a picture of Jelly, this morning:

Sure, come on out...although it might get a bit crowded. At least you could take me for a ride in your new car!

I like the eyes in most of the other paintings, but in this one, it kind of freaks me out. I love the bottom 3/4ths of it though I also really like the colors on the Jelly's head, they look watercolorish. The ragged orange border at the top is a nice contrast to the smoothness of the cap too. The solid black lines behind the jelly's legs and human legs give this one a very pleasing depth.

The tentacles around the legs remind me of dreams that I have where I want to run away from something, or I am being chased, but my legs
just. won't. move.

Whatever direction you are in right now, it's a great one!! Thanks for sharing with us.

You know, jellyfish are taking over the oceans. They're filling all the niches left by the fish we're hunting to extinction.

Actually, my decision to paint a jellyfish was inspired by my 6 year old son, who loves Spongebob.

Thanks, you guys, for your kind comments and feedback on my painting. Labrat, I do understand the creepiness. But I just can't help it. I am obsessed with eyeballs.

I came to this thread late - Ducks you witch.
Good job I'm not a Christian, because I covet that painting so badly I'd have to go to confession every day. I even considered buying it at $10 a week (if Case had agreed of course).

This sounds rude:

Like mangina. But I am such an adolescent.

I also love the jellyfish painting. Yes, I have a little creepy sensation, but less than I do with Dali - which this painting has a flavour of. Although of course he was a draughtsman in effect - such detail. I am more attracted to the flow of this.
