Nothing special. Just finished (like, 20 min. ago) . The background looks weird because of the reflection (the picture is done on blue acrylic plate ).

... yeah, it's small, the painted area is only like 12x12. The picture was done on  the restaurant's "today's special board". This "little" picture has a little more meaning, ... to me, at least. 2009, 2010, and most part of 2011 (so far)  I was kinda dead man walking ... all I saw was just emptiness , hollow space everywhere, didn't know why I still existed in this world. (You can tell from there's virtually no creative work done, very few e-mails, very few postings on online forum, etc). The ONLY thing that felt fun was this, my motorcycle. So, I guess it's appropriate to do self portrait (well, sort of ...) as return of the artist in me.

I should have started painting again much sooner ... was forgetting how much fun this can be. (For the record, the last time I did any kind of painting / drawing was November 2011, it was for someone's birthday.)
This picture was done virtually at the same time.

(right at this moment, mostly girls and motorcycles.)


(BTW, the bike will no longer be looking like the picture. Yes, I'm hopeless, it's undergoing another mod / project. What kind ? Is there anything more I want / need to do?  Can I afford another project without forcing myself to rob the bank? I'll show you the picture when it's done ...)

I like it!

You could make prints for others forum members by customizing the lid and suit. 

And I like the Miata one as well (former Miata geek here)
