You have a very wide-ranging work.The short glimpse I have had of the Paintings impresses me considerably.I'll need time to go throught the entire gallery with due attention.
The name - Mind's Island is very apt, by the way.
All the best

Hey boss,
Since you made me sit and look at your paintings, I can truly say that I enjoyed looking at your abstract work. It shows that you have an opened mind and can see many things through your work. Your mind with your work I hope will open the minds of the unthinkers in our society. With so much distruction to peoples lives you let us see it through your paintings as well as your belief. Keep it striving to be the individual that you "R".

Greetings from... well, Fresno!

Saw your paintings and I wish I had a lot of money to buy most of them... but I'm a struggling artist too. =)

So many people envy others for their talents, and yours is your way of expressing yourself through your paintings. It is a gift and i'm glad you decided to share it with the world. Truly impressive! It would be an honor to be able to own one of your work (and maybe get rich someday when you pass... hehe).

Anyway, this website will surely be viewed by many more through word of mouth (or pen). Keep it up!

07/04/2005 * 13:44:28

heya just like to say that i love "holy war" what struck me was the mixed styles that all came together and just seemed to jump out at me. very effective and i deffinatly think it works.
your work is very cool and although i am still experimenting with different mediums i try to have the impact and deep meaning that your artwork displays. i think that what makes a great picture...if it makes the person think, i may still be still young(17) but this is what i try to show in most of my art.
art means alot to me and i appreciate it that artists like you create (thought provocking) what i aspire to. brilliant work thank you cya
