"Okay, so I ventured momentarily away from my "fantasy/mystical" places jaunt (ever so briefly), to pay homage to the hot, "dog days" of summer of which we are now in the midst.We should enjoy, for these days will not be here for long!!"
Another 'Cool Dude' & another great painting Steve.
I can relate to this too.
The only difference is my nephews don't call me Uncle they call me 'Un cool"
Artist Reply: LOL. I guess there are "worse" things to be called, Rex!! Thanks!!!~S

A self-portrait I see, you deserve more days like this.
so cool.... Im taking this friday off to do some painting. Perhaps some oil pastels and just work with color. Seeing your work and others that do so well with color.. I need to stop out of my comfort zone with pencil drawings. Your work is great. I like your style! Thanks for sharing.
Artist Reply: thank you, David for your AWESOME comments!!! ^_^
Looks like fun.....like something I wish I could be doing right now. Excellent work Steve
Artist Reply: Thanks, Renata! This was probably inspired also by a little wishful thinking on my part , since I haven't had vacation since last October, so kinda looking forward to it!!! Take care!!
Excellent work, Steve! The city sure looks hot! :) It's been raining like crazy out here, so we haven't been able to hang out in the sun like this yet! Hopefully soon! :)
Artist Reply: I hope so soon also, Carrie Ann!!! Thanks so much for your kind words!!!
Wow, super job n the grass. Awesome shading. That looks like a great idea...but it's raining here. I'll just grab my cat and go to the couch and pretend I'm in the yard....or at the beach.
