Then I was lucky enough to see his work at an art museum close to my house (and practically free!) I own a nice book of his work. I hear he started painting like this because of his painting of a guitar- he painted the hole too small and realized it looked chubby and he really liked it that way.K(Banterings of a Basketcase)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17926370065535783676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666990364305390259.post-28322931974146955332010-10-07T17:09:54.884-06:002010-10-07T17:09:54.884-06:00These are great!

I will be posting an update sometime soon. As you will see I have deleted most posts and others have been transfered to my (many) Tumblr blogs!<br /><br />But, you know? That project was made possible because of people like you. I will thank you forever for being so supportive of me and for all your comments.<br /><br />Stay tuned!<br /><br />Much love :o)Heidi Alfonzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499882798964751416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666990364305390259.post-54850785559514601272010-10-07T11:28:37.174-06:002010-10-07T11:28:37.174-06:00Yessssssssss!
