By popular request, it's close-ups day. The first couple are detail shots of Untitled 23, and the next bunch are from Untitled 22. Both paintings are oil and cold wax.
And it's been a while since we've checked closely on Rumi's dentition...
Bonus pic: Rumi's tummy, for virtual snorgling:

Love these close-ups!
Love what you've done and can see how inspiring it was for you! High fives!
LOVE LOVE the close-ups...so much is going on! Thanks for posting them.
I also love the tummy pic for virtual snorgling and the fang and tongue shots. tooo much!
The close ups are like a weaving of sorts. Very tactile, textile. Maybe a sub- conscious influence.
Rumi, however, as a close-up looks less textile-y and more reptile-y.
But in a good and delicious way.
Enjoying the close-ups. Love 23!
Looking at Rumi and thinking what an innocent little nose but the teeth tell a different story ..... as do the blue stained socks in a previous post.
These are great and I bet they carry a dramatic impact in person.
love these paintings....i'll have to google COLD WAX. how do you do that?
Thank you for the close-ups. It's nice to see the textures created with this medium. I love the subtlety.
Pam, thank you.
Thanks, Mona. It was indeed.
Loriann - A virtual snorgle to you. You're welcome.
Bonnie - Ah, Rumi, my delicious reptile...
ArtPropelled - Yep, sometimes innocent and sometimes very naughty.
Thank you, David.
Neva - Please see several previous posts of mine (during and after my recent workshop) for a full discussion of the technique.
Thanks, Lisa.
