HI mobuddha love your paintings...sorry if that sounds crappy and 'shallow' but I really do. It's nice to see a really skilled painterly style. I have seen some really wonderful photo-realist works which I also love, but I myself have a more painterly and physical painting style like yours. onya!!!or cher cher as we say in New Zealand!
