I know how the lounge loves Pink Floyd so look here.
I am an artist trying to get out of the art closet. I have been painting for the past 8 years. I take photos of my pieces, put them into my movie maker and add music as a way to present my art.

4 of my 15 videos have Pink Floyd as the music. Which also happen to be the least viewed of my collection. It makes me happy to see the view counts rise and know people are seeing my work. Included in my video selection is something for everyone, so feel free to share. Won't you please click on a link and help me get out of this art closet?


This one I just uploaded to my youtube page. If you can't see it yet, please check back in a while.
Three separate oil paintings come together to create "In The City" music "Obscured By Clouds"

"The Divided States Of America"
Pastel oils on shipping crate. I painted this days after the 2004 election. music "Another Brick In The Wall Part 1" This painting has a great 3-D effect

"Worried Man"
Oil pastels on plywood music "Good Bye Blue Sky"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7VmBU3N7nk

"Dab & Scrape"
These paintings are done with a computer program called ArtRage2.2 I was just learning how to blend colors and move the paint around. By themselves they are pretty but seem like something more when all put together. music "On The Run"

I hope you enjoy my videos and thank you so much for watching. All feedback is most welcome.

I also nominate myself a the worst lounge DUer because I only come here for attention when I have a stroke or when my cats die or to promote my artwork.

1. Wow... I just watched
the "worried man" one... that's good! At first I thought it was 2 seperate paintings, like the hands were kind of an abstract person.

3. It's almost like the fingers are a kind of "christ" figure or something
Even though it looks like a walking person, just from the position of the "arms", and then the other fingers seem to form smaller people, or people kneeling down looking up at him or something.

8. My husband says the hands are backwards.
I am undecided because I painted it and I don't think I can ever see it like anyone else does. I think that is the biggest reason artists like other people to describe what they see. I really like you feed back. Tomorrow as I look at this piece I will think about the smaller people kneeling down.

Wisdom teeth just pulled, pain meds taking over.

Please look at my other videos and share freely. Link to web gallery of stills are down thread.

7. Did you watch my barenakedlady videos?
I do have a couple of nude pieces I made videos for. You can view them on my youtube page if you like. Or maybe you just like the band. Which I do as well.

Thank you for looking and posting. It is funny what just a few minutes of ones time and attention can mean to another.:hug:

6. Thank you for forwarding on to your loved ones.
I have always loved the music of Pink Floyd. It touches me in a meaningful way. I only chose these songs from my music library because they fit the time of the video images. I find they add emotion I could not feel/express with any other music. They just seem rite.

I love that you know the music your grandson plays. That says so much. It fills my eyes with tears.

I love the way you've presented your paintings with the music. It would be great to see them in a gallery somewhere! Thanks so much for posting them. :hug:

On edit: I wish I'd seen these yesterday so I could have recommended your post. They really are terrific!

11. I just added a new video of one of my paintings.
This one is "Is There Anybody Out There?" oil on canvas board 22" x 24"?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmDwWFflZ-A

So far I like this one the best. At least of the 5 videos I made that have Pink Floyd music.

Thank you for looking.
