Jamie in a tux

[Michele Rushworth]

Geary, the last time I went to SAM this painting was not on display, but I know it is in their own collection. You might want to call the museum and see if they would let you see it anyway.

Kim, I don't remember the colors in the hand but I do remember that the suit did disappear into the background almost completely. That surprised me but it had an interesting effect of making the figure seem like he was growing out of the darkness.

[QUOTE=Mike McCarty]You don't have to do that, I'm sure you could do it. I was just having flashbacks of your last "many figured" project.

I am supposed to turn down a coyote dare? Ha! (What kind of yankee - oops! - I mean Texan do you think I am?)

I want to crack a wise one about you flashing back to the bordello figures, but I cant seem to make it sound right... my wit is leaving me.

Does this mean Mike that you wont start that thread?

Ms. Kimberly,

You don't need me to start that thread. I charge an additional $5 for thread starting, which would bring it to a total of $5. So step up, be a starter of threads.

I am supposed to turn down a coyote dare?

I could withdraw my coyote dare and resubmit it as an armadillo dare. They are much easier to wiggle out of since they are often found drunk on the side of the road.

As to bordellos, I much prefer a chianti.

Hi Kimberly,

Forgive me but I couldn't resist embellishing your black on black themed image. You don't have to take this composition seriously, as it looked great already. I know the lighting doesn't make sense between the two.

Reversing the Sargent makes better sense with the light. The way everyone is looking different directions and thinking separate thoughts seems Manet-like.

Looks like the mentor overlooking his protegee, or the "art of cool". I love it!

Garth - it looks like father & son to me - the rich nobles or something. Either that or it could be an ad for the 'fashinably-dressed' aristocrats. I'll show Jamie when he gets home - he ought to get a chuckle out of it!
