"When God wanted to create the horse he said to the South Wind: I want to make a creature out of you. Condense ... and the wind condensed."

Tried to do a copy of a ref as a learning experience ... changed a few things in the end.

Pour vous Dave cause.

The rocks aren't exact, but they were too much to do precious.

Twee kleine aapjes!

and behind there is a naked woman

So I know its not quite done an all, but im working on this sick ass naked sculpture dude and it looks a little something like this. im sure it will be hellla popular one day.

My painting does not come from the easel. I prefer to tack the unstretched canvas to the hard wall or the floor. I need the resistance of a hard surface. On the floor I am more at ease. I feel nearer, more part of the painting, since this way I can walk around it, work from the four sides and literally be in the painting. I continue to get further away from the usual painter's tools such as easel, palette, brushes, etc. I prefer sticks, trowels, knives and dripping fluid paint or a heavy impasto with sand, broken glass or other foreign matter added. When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that I see what I have been about. I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.
