I'll be willing to bet he'll still be good looking, though. ;-)

Am now listening to "Punkrock Girl", by the Dead Milkmen.

More new work for the Italy show.

7732. judithathome - 1/29/2005 2:07:15 AM

Gorgeous stuff, Wiz!!

7733. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 1/29/2005 3:04:38 AM

Thanks Judith, any favs?

7734. SnowOwl - 1/29/2005 8:23:42 AM

They're all beautiful.

If I had to pick I might choose Rainy Day in Venice, but it would be very difficult to find a favourite.

7735. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 1/29/2005 4:12:26 PM

Thank you SnowOwl, I appreciate the input.

Every picture of the Visions of Italy series reminds me of old provençal villages. Farm Fields with Sun Glints and Hilltop Farm With Sunlit View are my favorite—I like the way light, sheen, skin and brass tones are rendered in Whiz’s work.

7737. judithathome - 1/29/2005 8:13:36 PM

I like the farm pieces, especially after the rain.

But if I were able, I'd buy them all!

7738. wabbit - 1/29/2005 8:22:14 PM

Ooooh...

Difficult to pick favorites, but I think mine would be Farm, Early Evening and Hilltop Farm With Sunlit View

Were back up!

Thanks for the feedback, all - I truly appreciate it. I'm trying to cull and decide which ones to make bigger. The farm fields and Monterrenti are larger than the first studies, but I'm having trouble deciding too.

Should I cut the San Gimignano pieces or improve and refine them? I vividly recall the feeling of walking her dark and cool streets while looking above to the entirely different world of those medieval skyscrapers.

Moreover, I haven't a clue about how Italians will perceive the work - I mean: is it a vision just for the touristas by a tourista or does it capture what they feel too?

France or Italy it's all medieval, I guess. I hate this part of putting a show together. I love the studio and abhor everything else. Nevertheless, more is coming - Venice, Sienna, Umbria, Rome. Pompeii and Sicily. Please bear with me. Or should I say bare with me. I'm on fire and I can't stop!!!

Nice stuff, WoW!

If my turtle-connection and difficult isp ever straighten up I'll have a look. My computer curls up at pdf for some reason.

7742. arkymalarky - 1/29/2005 10:08:00 PM

Man, it really sounds great.

7743. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 1/29/2005 10:38:20 PM

Thanks wonk, how are the matrimonial obligations going?

ark- the PDFs are about 1.5 megs each so if you don't have a lot of ram, it may be impossible to load. I'll send you a postcard.

7744. arkymalarky - 1/29/2005 11:31:57 PM

What a sweetheart! Thanks Wiz!

7745. wonkers2 - 1/30/2005 1:09:56 AM

So far, so good.

7746. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 1/30/2005 8:46:19 PM

wonk- There is a show on BBC America called: The Kumars At No. 42 that is both a hoot and informative in ways I think you'd appreciate.

7747. Macnas - 1/31/2005 11:39:08 AM

Kumars is a good show, gets a bit tired after a few episodes but better than a lot of television these days.
