Same, so happy. The pics did NOT do it justice. A little gorilla-gripped, but I'm hoping with will relax out.

Agree with you on this. Wish the border was a bit bigger. Really nice print though. :clap:

Just a little creepy.

I'm a fan of the concept of the show and think it's an interesting offshoot of his usual Waiting scenes but I'd have a tough time hanging these.

The paintings look amazing and the prints look good too. I'm surprised at the prints, there are so many layers of black in the work I wouldn't have thought they'd reproduce worth a crap.

for sure they look weird but i am tempted to buy the two or three i like and put them together... It might work, but only in a file, i doubt they will ever be on a wall... or i'll have to be single :P

While not everything Brett does fits my eye, I like the everyman sort of approach to all of his work.

So you're saying they would look great together - in the flat file?

just saying i won't be able to put them on the wall as my girlfriend hates them, not because i don't want to... so i'll only be able to look at them in a file, although i am sure they would look interesting framed one next to the other... Maybe one day... :?
