:clap: :clap: :clap: to your whole post, I just didn't want to requote everything and take up too much space.

I wonder what your thoughts are about Croatoan and Whale Bone Grove. I don't have as profound thoughts about these art pieces as most people have commented about Croatoan, but I feel like Croatoan and WBG have some sort of different dimension similarity (kind of like the Jet Li movie One), with the bird and ray on the left, and dilapidated building on the right. I could see these two in the comic strip beside each other, with your observation of the clouds, and that WBG could be the middle piece with clouds parted on either side of the print. I'd like to see a similar piece with maybe the ray having the upper hand on the bird to balance everything out, since my interpretation Croatoan is that the bird and the ray are pretty much at a stalemate.

Meh. Doubt it's a mob. Probably just me and my imagination. Pretty sure more people are worried about the price of the piece.

Thanks for the compliment, aznpunkyu. I just PM'd you, since it doesn't seem fitting to talk about WBG in the Croatoan thread. Just thought I'd add this note for you and anyone else that feels the same... As long as you are polite and respectful, never be afraid of sharing your thoughts. "Profound" has 2 definitions: 1. (of a state, quality, or emotion) very great or intense; 2. (of a person or statement) having or showing great knowledge or insight. What's interesting is that one cannot have #2 without #1. Passion is instrumental in the pursuit of knowledge. You have already clearly demonstrated your passion for Aaron and his art by talking about his works. And I think that's the most important part.
