Mile and a Sixteen (and change) oil on eighteen 12" square canvas panelsThe piece depicts an entire horse race from start to finish. For a more detailed description of my thought process, click here. I've spent the last couple of days "color correcting" which I must say is becoming easier now that EVERYTHING is going digital - however it's still a daunting task.
But I did get out tonight to attend the opening reception of the Ocala transplant Bobby Goldsboro painting exhibit at the Marion Cultural Alliance. Remember him? He had a string of hits during the 60's, most notably the tear jerker "Honey". I spoke to him a bit through the throngs - he's quite witty and interesting and I was surprised to learn that he's only been painting for a couple of years.

Ah, those words " never " and " always " make a liar out of us as soon as we say them.
That's why I say, " You always never know ".
If songwriters couldn't sell more than the original recording, we'd all be deprived of music.
This is a way to share your art, not diminish it, and get some royalties at the same time.
Sounds like a photo finish to me.
Seeing the fragmented pieces of the start to finish adds to the thrill of the race.
Good for you.
Bonnie: as a lover of quotes, aphorisms and other snappy sayings, I adore this:
" You always never know ".
I may use that sometime but I promise to attribute credit.
I understand and appreciate your thoughts, but I'm still not sure about reproducing everything I create. It's ink, not paint. Sometimes it just doesn't feel respectful to myself or my process.
