Thanks very much. I'm having a show this spring in the SF Bay Area and am still in the process of setting up a proper website. I'll keep you posted as things progress.

Hey Nikko- I'm on vacation and just now was able to get on the internet. The first thing I did is watch your video! I agree with you & CRW. I liked it best at 4:30 & love the upper right. The magenta line coming over the top might look better and bring it together if it were done with the bottle instead of the brush and it does give it depth but all in all I LOVE IT! Looks like it was fun to do- now you have me wanting to try this. I'm agree with Lisa too- the original strokes are wonderful.

@momapes - Thanks Mo for the complement and the critique. I need to do more of these for sure. It's a very interesting exercise, mostly from the standpoint of responding and working with marks that I would never normally make.

i really liked the beginning or at least up til 04:30

then possibly over worked it a little. (my opinion only of course).

i guess i liked it a little more raw....but a good result nonetheless.

looks to me like an exotic bird in the top left quarter, but i liked the sharpness within the yellow areas (top right quarter) too.

cheers

@Cre8iveSignWorks - Yeah, I see what you mean. I do like the magenta stripe right at 4:30, but all the stuff on the left after that starts to take away from the overall feel. It's challenging to balance the randomness of the beginning with the conscious image building that follows, but that's what interests me. I always try to work as randomly as possible in the beginning, but this is more like creating a work from something that was done by someone else. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers.
