You stroke the paintbrush in the right spot where you know how you're gonna progress from there with no hesitation. I can't wait to become this good at painting.

I'm reading your book on sketching, and just went over the part on drawing motion and strategies for when the subject changes poses, which includes making a composite picture with fragments from other poses, which is what you did in this video, it was very cool to watch it, ty

Nice to see you at the Dutchess County Fair! Your work today makes me think of the Dutch artist, Rien Poortviet. In particular, his book THE FARM. …..from a watercolorist in Sherrill, NY. who went to school in Red Hook.

reminds me sumi-e ! Yes, chicken are underratet. But a lot of other animals too ! Years ago I buyed ( ? My mother didn´t speak english ) a phantastik book, called Dinotopia ! I loved the art of painting AND story-telling ! But much later I realized that you where the autor of Dinotopia ! What a pitty that the second part is no longer available. I liks the end of the book much much more than that brute end of the film. In the book the "bad boy "got the chance for re-socialization, a christian thinking ! Thanks for all those wunderfull pieces of human culture !

James, I LOVE all of your work... but this? The satire and social commentary are divine! You are right about chicken people and sheep people. ( Sheeple and cheaple ) By submitting to the algorithm, they are unwittingly programming Artificial Intelligence. The algorithm will survive and evolve long after we're gone. Like dinosaurs that went extinct, the human race is a failed experiment. Perhaps Dinotopia is prescient; Except it is not dinosaurs and people that will live together, but a few people and their sentient algorithm overlords. People absorb TV brainwashing and do as they are told. Intelligent people are universally repelled by the stupidity, violence and greed in this world. Stupid people just want burgers and their pet phones. You however, find both beauty and humor, then artfully document it to share. This is Art (capital "A") on the highest level. THANK YOU!
