My submission for Illustration Friday's "Time" is a dimensional painting I made in 1992. The title of this piece is "Night Clawk" and it was hanging in a restaurant in Westwood, CA and a young man named Kirtland Washington came in and purchased it. It's cool how a painting is a part of the artist and then someone takes it home and it has it's very own life out in the world somewhere. I hope Kirtland still has it and enjoys it. I am close to finishing the Shoe House and will post it soon.

I think that is cool too. Any work of yours will be a joy to have!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely dimensional painting! I love the blues of the night and the glow of the stars.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteIts amazing how you do to use your "house/home" to diferents tags!
ReplyDeletelovely!
The blues and yellows are magical together!
ReplyDeleteReally lovely. It sets a wonderful atmosphere.
ReplyDeletewow another very cool piece I could just sit and watch you draw!
ReplyDeleteGreat work, Val :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I LOVE this piece. I love all your pieces... but this one is just WOW.
ReplyDeleteI think it needed a little black kitty though. I love searching you pics for the little black kitty :)
Crazy...really like how this breaks the frame...This is one I would really like to see in person because while it looks 3D at the same time it doesn't if that makes sense...did you cut away a piece of the frame? Per the usual great light effects here to make it pop...
ReplyDeleteso cool, great pick for this weeks theme, the hawk is lovely.
ReplyDeleteAnd you made this in 1992?Wow. Absolutely wonderful.
ReplyDeletemarvellous...big ben perhaps??
ReplyDeleteCool, love the night colors and the perspective!!!
ReplyDeleteThe colors and perspective scream "Time," wonderful imagery!
ReplyDeleteClever title for this piece! And how did I know ( or feel) you'd be playing this song?
ReplyDelete:)
I think there's a story in every lit window of this piece. Love everything about it.
ReplyDeleteclap clap clap
ReplyDeletefantastic as always
so closer to floyd's song
:-)
Dreamy! I'm such a fan of your buildings and houses. This is really awesome. And it was cool to imagine the hawk while listening to Pink Floyd, too.
ReplyDeletethis is so beautiful! i like the hawk.
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful! I just feel like back to night time each day to celebrate the essence of magical light that speaks so well here.
ReplyDeleteWhat a legend!
Yes, I bet it's like losing a part of you when you sell a piece. I think I would want to know who bought my art (if I were an artist) just for that special connection.
ReplyDeleteOooh... I like the way it breaks the boundary with the roof top...
ReplyDeleteImagine having a painting by Valgal on your wall ...well... you already know how that feels...hee hee!!
Hi Val,
ReplyDeleteTime has no control over our art, her continued to live long, very long time ...
Very good week.
Hauntingly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI want to live in a shoe house too!.. I am waiting for seeing yours in color.. and yes, you are right, a piece that is just yours goes to someone else hands.. but they are still yours.. =)
ReplyDeleteooh, i love clock towers! love the mood of this one!
ReplyDeleteHi Val,
