You have taken the whole surreal/dark tim burton-ish phase that seems to dominate to a new level... this feels fresh.

Thanks. I try to invoke some sort of emotion in the things I do. I hadn't ever thought of Tim Burton, though I certainly wouldn't compain about that comparison.

It was one of 10 paintings, and I plan on adding the rest shortly. After they are all up, I may post my artist statement of sorts. Though I may just leave it open to interpretation. That's usually more fun.

I crtainly did not mean to compare your work to his... more that you have taken that feel or tone and gone someplace new with it. I can't wait to see the others.
