Harmful to man?
I have to admit… this is an old painting. I used to sit for hours in front of the television with my watercolors and get lost. Now it seems I spend more time on Lost than I do painting… much more time spent on family and the never-ending home renovations… This is one of a series of paintings in a very different style that was inspired by my wife when we first started dating… not that a snake or Adam and Eve really have much to do with us… it was just a new path in life…
This one is called Physician's Friend. Water Worries can be seen here. More Than A Mouthful here.

Sorry to drop by late cause I am very busy lately....
I missed this!! I love detail like this. You must have had the patience of a saint when you were in this phase! I have a feeling you still do ;)
ReplyDeleteI did a series of lizards a while back hoping to sell the images to jigsaw puzzle companies. Ah...NO.
Maybe I'll post one for Animal Wed one of these weeks.
