Here is my latest painting:

I'm actually pretty happy with it.  It's the biggest painting I've made yet (30x40) and it's inspired me to make a painting a month in 2006 and try to get an art show.

I really wish I had an Newport Original.

Wow- your butterfly LOOKS LIKE A BUTTERFLY!  I couldn't even come close to that.  I'm very impressed!

That is absoultely fantastic.  Can you give some backstory about it?  you have a prideful wax heart?

Thanks guys.  :)

Long story short - Nochin was the inspiration for that.  She's constantly setting these unobtainable goals for herself & ends up failing and falling to the the ground - and expecting me to pick up the pieces.  There's more to it - but that's the general overview.
