Getty out of here

Last week I finally visited the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. I knew Vincent van Gogh's Irises was there, but I didn't realize the amount of amazing and famous art I would find. It was a little overwhelming.

In one room, I stood three feet from Turner's Long Ship's Lighthouse. It was me and the Turner in an empty room. Every once in a while a tourist walked by, hardly noticing the painting. I wanted to yell, "Hey idiot - you just walked past a frickin' Turner!"

As I'm walking down a hallway, my eye catches a small painting of a ballerina. I thought - it couldn't be a Degas. Sure as hell, it was a Degas ballerina - Dancer Taking a Bow.

There were also a number of Monet's, my favorite being, Wheatstacks, Snow Effect.

I wish I had done more research before I left. I think I would have appreciated the experience a lot more.

I Love Van Art

I just purchased an airbrush, the Vega 2000. It is a two stroke, with interchangeable pins. It rocks. I also purchased a Husky air compressor at Home Depot and it rocks. As a matter of fact, the whole damn thing rocks. My career in airbrush illustration has just begun. I just completed my first gradient. Soon I will be painting jumping dolphins over an ocean sunset.

And then, when I'm ready I will endeavor to fulfill my destiny of producing "Van Art". I love van art and here are some of my favorite examples:





















This picture is from Power Studios in Australia


















This is from Varuna Van:

















This is from realm of the wombat.com






























So if you need your van or car painted, just drop me an email. I have an airbrush and I will travel.
