The Beatles
Here's a shot of my current painting in progress, tentatively titled "The Beatles."



After this, it's back to painting likenesses of people and groups of people for a while.

1. If this thread degenerates into a flamefest,
You can rechristen the painting as "Electrical overload in progress".

5. So true about Ringo's nose.
A smidge to the right, I'd say.

Wouldn't you?

10. i went and looked at the sockets in my place, the little ground pin...
is on the bottom whereas your's are on the top, some say art that prompts one to question their surroundings is part of what art is all about

12. It's messed up that those are on the top,
but that's how it is in the place where I go for the group oil painting sessions. I think the contractor didn't know better or didn't bother to adhere to the standard. It was sweet to see the outlet with the ground up top.

Here's an older one I did illustrating how my friend has jumped the shark.



(Except that's not exactly serious artwork or anything, ahah.)

17. wait a second.. I may have a slight buzz...
but this is a drawing titled The Beatles?

The electrician put the fixtures up side down. Yellow is apropos to that submarine thing...

Wait a second.. the more I look at it the more its a cool trip...

...

So.. the Beatles were an upside-down unsquare source of energy?


cool

:hi:

18. the shadows are so fragile and tenuous I want to touch them
and the light in the corner is really nice. I have never felt this way about electrical outlets before, it's new and different. :)

Beautiful work, once again. :thumbsup:

24. Great! I love it
and the upside down outlets are just perfect. The Beatles did turn the music world upside down.
