Is this what you had in mind when you did the poll in C&R forum? Or is there something else in the works? Just wondering.

I enjoy your work and wouldn't hesitate to pick out a piece or two if/when I ever had a [man] room to put it in.

This is the piece I've been envisioning for quite some time.

The rough layout would've been the same for the various brands, the center image (brand logo) and cigars would have varied.

HOLY CRAP! (pardon me) I didn't even notice the "center image" (brand logo). Well done. I won't say anything else to give it away just in case there is someone out there as slow as me. d'oh!

It's funny because on another forum they didn't notice it right away either. That was my goal with this one. Make it 'hidden' as well as I could. When I look at it, it's all I see, but I focused on putting it there so I figured that's why I always see it.

I wanted the surrounding image to stand on its own as well.

This is awesome.

Best I have seen by far.

Saw on FB that the Drew's want it.

WTG Mike.

One question though.

What is the significance of the green paint on the top right stick?

None. I use all kinds of colors (browns, yellows, reds, blues, whites, blacks) in making the brown tones of the cigars. I just thought it looked cool to leave that highlight there.

It's on the others as well, just not as pronounced.

I paint in kind of an oil/fast acrylic style. I paint quickly and mix colors on the canvas for the most part. I do little color mixes on the palette. I like to see how they flow on the canvas and work with them there. I just liked that color pop, so I left it. Angel

very nice work, bro. Glad you went with the LP line. I dont think any of the others would have worked as well for the center image.

Mike, thatis an awesome piece of work there bro. Yes, most definitely one of the top ones I like.

Center piece is awesome as I didn't even notice it at first till I read and had to go back and see it.

Well done

I've gotten a few PM's regarding ownership of prints, BUT a few of you seem to 'want' one in the thread, but I've not heard from you. If you would like a print, please let me know via PM and I'll put'cha on the list!

Thanks!

Amazing job. I believe I saw some of your prices, etc. Do you take suggestions or ideas on new work? Or do a commission sort of thing? Just randomly curious nothing soon.

Sure, I take suggestions...can't promise I'll create the work. If it hits me right I will.

If it's commissioned work, I'll work with you until we figure out the concept and then make it happen!

Thanks for the inquiry.

I'm going to draw one trade offer from the PMs I receive by the end of the week. Doesn't matter what the trade is for (list it anyway or reference please)... It'll be a random selection. So, PM an offer to get in on the drawing.

Couple of these went out today. I'd guess Thursday landings as I went first class with DC. Turns out, they're light weight and don't spoil!

Did anyone get these flippin' things yet?! USPS has owed me a box/shipment since Tuesday (not here yet and it's Thursday night) and I'm assuming will be blaming the snow for the non-delivery.

So, keep me posted guys. Sorry for the delay!!

Topped for the stretched canvas concept.

This one could be printed on stretched canvas as well.

ONE of these prints took a hit! I was carry too much stuff down the stairs last night and dropped a print. Crying

It has some SLIGHT damage to an edge. I don't believe it would even be seen when framed.

Anyone who has thought about trading for some art, but figured you couldn't send what you've seen others do...this is your chance!

Just remember, an edge got worked over a little bit.

That sucks that one was damaged.

Still probably too rich for me though.

This is a great opportunity for someone to grab it.

Out of all of your work posted here and also your site.IMO this is the best.
