Description Oil on canvas.
2ft x 4 ft

Woo! Im finally finished. I wish the gold paint, which is actually a base of Bronze powder had showed up better in the photo. darn. but we do what we must and we must what we do.

I had an original idea to this painting that didnt come across. It was more about the frailty of humans and how we all need to eat and sleep just like mere animals, so, why do we think we are Gods? but, i left out the fox, but that IS what it means. I dont want people to get the impression that im scrunching up in a ball of angst. That might have been me 6 months ago, but no. Im quite happy these days. If anything, its me just enjoying a nice afternoon nap, as i do recall being very sleepy that day.

Wow...just, wow. Also, I can't get over how big of canvases you use. This is insanely realistic.

When I stumbled across this, I thought it was a mis-placed photograph. When I clicked the image, I literally gasped "Holy crap, it IS a painting!"
Incredible work. I could never get oils to work for me, I'm too impatient, I like it dry FAST, darnit!

o wow! thank you. That is a huge compliment. I can only get oils to work for me because they dry so slow, it makes blending ridiculously easy :] Acrylic just aggravates me now

Meh, I lost all patience with acrylic and oils, all I can do it watercolor now (it's fast, it's washable, and if I mess up I can wet it down and "erase" it.)
I've been meaning to pick up the thicker paints again when I have a studio space for an easel.

very nice. I believe you about the gold paint... it's very hard to capture anything shimmery like that.
