  • I love your process. It's organic and beautiful.

  • @omniscientmoon77 thank you ;)

  • OH I dig this! Love the torn paper idea, all the colors and tones, the colors you have going on with the cat(s). So, So glad you're back. Looks like your trip loaded you up with creativity . Love it that you paralleled painting with friendship and trust-- what a great way to explain it. I agree!

  • @PotentM Thanks it is great to be back ;) All inspired and charged up to create so what this space ;)

  • The fake money are for religious purposes in Chinese Folk Religion. In Aug. every year for a month it's "Ghost Month" when the gates of Hell are opened and ghosts roam free on our plane. The money is burned so that the ghosts can spend it in the afterlife. Not only money is burned,,,,elaborate paper houses and even cars are burned. What ever is burned manifest as material objects on the ghostly plane.

    Great work by the way Gary!

  • @dragontw1 Thanks very much appreciate your explanation...;)

  • did you make your stencils? if not where do you suggest getting them.

  • I would like to see the finished projects. Can you lump them together in technique and finished art? I just love your artwork, its so unique.

  • "Fake money in Washington." How ironic considering things of late. Ha Ha. Wonderful work.

  • OMG This looks like SO much fun. And I was just doing something like this in my very 1st Junk journal..which is not even me at all. I don't do art, untill recently. But there is so much to do and so many videos to watch and so much junk to collect. LOL.

  • I love your vids Gaz...just watching again.Very cool watching you paint backwards. Lea :)
