  1. From the album: Paco Gorospe Paintings

    Paco Gorospe's signature as it appears on the painting that Neil would like restored. (I received these images by e-mail, together with the note attached, below - and Neil has very kindly given me permission to upload them to my album of Paco Gorospe paintings here at artfreaks.com)

  3. Hi! I had a look at your website. Your art is amazing and highly original. Your prices for the originals look very reasonable too... I know you have got that widget thing for linking to ArtsCad and selling prints. That's fine and I would also recommend that you have a look at: ArtWanted.com for selling both your prints and your original works. I also think that your own site could benefit from either a simple bit of gallery software for showcasing your art - or maybe even your own online store? Your own gallery would just make it easier for people to browse your work. If you don't want to pay for the software, Coppermine produce an excellent online gallery and, the last time I checked, this was still Freeware? I'm not all that "up" on online stores but I use Shop-Script here and I am quite happy with it. I paid around $200 for mine but I see, (at the time of writing,) that they are also offering some form of free shopping cart software. I hope this helps!
  4. Thanks very much for the information! By the way, what do the initials, "RPS" stand for?

  10. The Essex Boy joke A man walked into the produce section of his local supermarket and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent that the boy ask his manager about the matter. Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, "Some tosser wants to buy a half a head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, "and this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other half." The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later the manager found the boy and said "I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?" "Essex, sir," the boy replied. "Well, why did you leave Essex," the manager asked. The boy said, "Sir, there's nothing but whores and footballers there." "Really?" said the manager, "My wife's from Essex!" The boy replied: "No shit!!!??!! Who did she play for?"

    My early attempts at pastel painting

    Some of the less disastrous results of the site-owner's early attempts at pastel painting.
  15. From the album: My early attempts at pastel painting

    From a photograph of a young girl called Kylee at Kylee-Model.com Another failure, hence the title, "Kylee - One" (- Meaning to say that there will have to be at least a "Kylee - Two" before I am happy with the results) This one started out just fine but I managed to ruin it right at the end, with too much fixative - and then trying to make good the damage with yet more pastel. (I was trying to use up what I thought was an almost empty can of Golden museum grade varnish - but it had rather more left in it than I had planned for...) Soft pastels on Saunders Waterford rough watercolor paper 18 1/2" x 12 1/2" (47cm x 32cm) I know, I know... "Don't give-up the day job just yet!" Well. artfreaks.com is supposed to be a website for amateur artists and beginners...!!

  22. From the album: Some more recent pastel paintings

    A pastel painting of Shoubi, my Pit Bull Terrier cross-breed bitch. This was my second attempt and, although it is still a long way from perfect, I feel it is an improvement on "Shoubi - One". I managed to get her coloring a bit better and Shoubi looks less "foxy" here - so I am quite happy with it!

  24. Differences between men and women: NICKNAMES If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah. If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes. EATING OUT When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in

    I called this "Shoubi - One" because I really need to have another go at this one... 'Shame really, as it was quite good at one stage - but I totally overworked it and had to give-up before I completely spoiled the painting. Anyway, I decided to keep it as some of my dog's character has somehow managed to come through with this one. But with the next attempt, I want to try and capture the magnificent quality of her coat!
