There's something about this guy's work that's quite calming. Even this one, which puts a whimsical spin on one end-of-life scenario.

Update: This is apparently a recurring theme.

The artist is Shawn Bonsky and I ran across a sample of his painting on his Gawker Artists page.

[After all these years, I just realized that I don't have a category for "Art." I guess I don't post much about art, or I've shoehorned it into other categories. Maybe I'll do more of this in the future. Maybe not. But we've got a category now, so our taxonomy has that going for it.]

I like it. It's very soothing, but for the occasional triceratops. ;-)

So, what is it with you and reptiles? No simpático? ;-)

I'm surprised you don't have an art category ..... I'm trying to remember who was it, the other day, sayimg, "That Eric is a real piece of work"

:-)

See now, it's only by virtue that most of them are already sold that I don't have to blame you for the loss of some money. Because those are fun and...well...whimsical - and I love whimsical art.

I particularly liked the daylight scene of the moon and a street light on a wooden pole, in the middle of nowhere.

'Travelling' looks like it could be a Jars of Clay album cover. Just a thought. :)
