Here come the Dragonballz

Finally got around to treating myself to a fun painting. It is wonderful painting in such a small format . . . everythng happens so quickly.

As long as I can remember I have loved plastic figures.
As a youth I had lots of Super Heroes, Monsters, Soldiers, Cowboys and Indians in my room. Many a battle was waged from my desktop between the Hulk and Franeknstein.

















"Peek A Boo", 6" x 6". Oil on Panel

I never had one of these . . . not quite my thing as a youth. . . however as an adult I think she is adorable. I can see myself painting a few of this type of figure in a variety of sizes. I think she would be amazing as a 36" painting . . . we'll see.
