My Dan Series

[Artyczar]

Have I ever posted pieces from my Dan series?

Here is The Birth of Dan. Oil and paper on Linen, 20 x 16 inches.

Great delivery room Arty. Just post the whole series here so we can see them all.

Brilliant and like Sno said

 

[Artyczar]

There are too many to post, but I can post more for you guys. What do you think of the one above? He came from a different universe, and transformed through that painting. His first words were yellow. He also speaks in stripes.

Here he is in full. 6" x 6" on oil clayboard.

I love the white on pink and the yellow on white. And the whole idea of your thought/speech bubbles. The first time I saw them I had what they describe as cognitive dissonance! What better reaction?! I would like to own the birth. In both senses.

 

[snoball]

I don't care where he came from, he's adorable!

 

[Artyczar]

Thank you both. These are gone, but I miss them terribly.

 

[Iain]

I occasionally have had the passing panicked thought as I imagined someone procuring - or wanting to procure - my efforts. See...I have a fantastical imagination.

 

[snoball]

Your confidence in yourself is overwhelming Iain.

 

[Iain]

It is richly deserved, I can tell you. "I am the coward and the fool and the clown." Charles Bukowski. And then, Gerald Locklin, "Enough about me, what do you think of me?" ha. It's brillig.

Anyhow. This is Dan's thread.

 

[Artyczar]

Dan would be happy that you are happy.

 

[Nufocus]

Sweet, whimsical and well done!!

 

[Artyczar]

Thanks Nufocus.

 

[E.J.H.]

I like Dan. I'd love to see more of him.

 

[Artyczar]

Thank you EJH. I will post more.

 

[Artyczar]

This one is called Danarama, 30 x 30 inches. Oil, paper, and embroidery on linen.

 

[E.J.H.]

Dan makes a solid argument against vertical.

 

[snoball]

E.J.H. said it all. Dan speaks louder in stripes than he does in yellow.

 

[Dave Woody]

Dantastic work, like it a lot!

 

[Iain]

Absolutely the mismatched half-circles (top-right). I do love a wonky line. It's like being taken for a walk. Everybody has their predilictions.
