A lovely composition using the picture tube, a filled shape, and a linear gradient. See the emotion in this art as the artist struggles with the meaning of finding profound things to say!

Once again, the pioneering spirit of linear gradients on triangles demonstrates the struggle of man upward and onward. Notice the paintbrush strokes with 30% opacity!

  The texture of coarse canvas, the rainbow rube, and the clone brush all portray the dilemna of conformity vs. individualism. Note how the confetti makes you want to party.

Daze textures, drop shadows, and even an inner beveled filled rounded square with a funny face on it all give a sense of lightness and frivolity. The flies add another touch of lightness to the piece. If you look very closely, you will note a hint of neon green picture tube.

  The inner-bevelled universal smilie of embarrassment or sheepishness L) first catches the eye, and then the pattern of the neon beanies in the circle grabs the viewer's attention. The only picture tube used here is the planet at the top right corner, but the most fascinating thing is the bezier curves at the very center in green. Indeed this piece signifies a turning point in the artist's career.
