Thank you very much for all your nice compliments, they really cheer up that dude sitting on the bench! Say, this bottles EMPTY!

/// There you are, 3 lines. Ok, I know its a dumb joke. I am fine, dear Shachar, working on 3 paintings now. I like doing the "Lyrics in Oil" series, so much great music (once upon a time) to get inspiration from. I'm waiting for an answer if I've been accepted to take part in a pretty big art show in Antwerpen. Fingers crossed!
Yes, I miss chatting with you too, don't see you much anymore I hope YOU are ok and happy and busy with art and photography. So here are a bunch of , and and of course, lots and lots of Happy to see you again!

Lazy? Definitly. A bum? Nah, not yet. Well this years art shows came to a close with a fantastic sales record of...0. Damn Belgians and Dutch would rather save their money and go to Spain in the winter than buy my paintings. Can't blame 'em either, really. I came back from like 170°F in Israel to grey, rainy , cold. But lots of time to paint. I'm doing a new series of ideas: lyrics in oil. Taking songs and painting them as I "see" them. Guess that comes from reading a lot as a kid (still love reading) and being able to visualize the story in my imagination. Later on came LSD and other things which also made me visualize things that weren't always there. But since I usually listen to music while I'm painting, I suppose this was a logical course.So yeah, that's the new direction, but still keeping to Renaissance rules and methods...sort of. I have 2 paintings going now and a 3rd (self portrait!) in the rabbit hide gesso glue stages. Yeah, this bum keeps busy! I mean, not the way the English mean bum... ...
