Very cool! Good to see some others doing herp art! I have some posted here...mostly oil on canvas... http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a386/sho220/Paintings/

You're really good with the brush! that spider on the web is awesome....i could very much see that on a white tee shirt or something!!!

Have you had any luck with the prints? I've thought about having some prints done but not sure herps are the type of subject that would sell. Original stuff seems to be an even harder sell...I guess ball python keepers would rather drop a few hundred on a new snake instead of something to hang on the wall... I guess I can understand that...

yeah i agree with you 100%. they are not moving like hotcakes...but are slowly moving. i still think that would be a pretty cool shirt though.

i do it mostly for myself to have something nice on the wall. anything else is just extra....to support the cause

Wow, that's really nice, took me a bit to figure out the colored one was a photo you had used as a "model". The detail on the head is amazing, I can't even figure out how you did that!
