Little Oddballs
Here is an oddball assortment of little paintings that are based on reality in someway, but are mostly from my head as I got a bit fanciful with them. Just some silly experimenting. Pink Barn is 6x8. Flatbed Abstraction is 8x10 and New Wall is 6x8 all in oil on linen panel. You decide which is which.
And watch for my Christmas Special about Santa's least hung Elf: " Little Oddballs" On Showtime.

I like the flatbed one. It may be a little odd, but the lighting is great.
I do like the pink barn, too, though. Who would ever think of a pink barn? Maybe some very quirky cows.
these are cool. the one on the bottom is incredible. the sense of light is amazing!
I like "Pink Barn" the best. There's something unwholesome about that barn....
I keep looking back and forth between the violent red spot on the foreground post, and the shocking pink of the barn, and I am enjoying the relationship between those two colors.
I love your paintings...and I love the feel of the last one, third one down..
just beautiful.

awesome, love seeing these types of paintings from imagination. how long will the SLO show be up?
Little Oddball? I love it!
You know who likes Pink Barns? Tracy Helgeson. Find her link under my links.
Hey Don, It's been awhile.
I like these little oddballs, but especially the last one. The light!
What a coincidence...I have some little oddballs of my own!
hey Glam,
funny what you can get form one dot of red.
I swear, I don't know how you do it. Great stuff, Bill.
Mike
thanks DD I feel the love! ;-)
Hey Bill. Interesting to see some of your explorations. Could you elaborate a bit on the mysterious red dot? Some theory behind that? It's really intense. Is that to help bring that pole to the foreground? To bring the audience's eye to the "beginning" of where you want them looking? Just curious. You might not have a motive behind it, but it's my little theory that you might : )
Bajel-- Good question. I'll ask and post an update.
Dan, Might work for Cartoon Network...
Ron, I bet you do. Just don't pull them out on the stand like Captian Queeg.
Same to you Mike, You draw like a race diver.
Katz-- It's meant to be what you think it is, that warning not to go into the barn unless you want some crazy fuck to wear your skin and feed your liver to his snapping turtle.
Like WOW!
When I look at your work I can't escape your mastery of the sky. It is a powerful element in your work...every bit as much as your subjects.
Haha, that snapping turtle can have my liver. I've seemed to recently ruined it through heavy metal toxicity. HEED THE WARNING PEOPLE! Paint on your fingers and fumes do get to you!
My stomach has been hurting. Is there any method I can take to detox?
thanks Jon,
I'm working on it. ;-)
Katz yes drink a gallon of water an hour, between vegetable Milkshakes and coffee enemas while watching the new R and S videos. That should shit it out of you.
I tried to swing by the Segil Art Gallery today to see your paintings on display, but had some real crappy directions that got me all screwed up.:(
I hope your art will still be on display tommorrow or later on this week.
Bill.. I love the red barn. The composition, and the way the posts lead back is very dynamic. Rock ON!
