paintings and shyness

I am supposed to be at a birthday party right now, but like a small child, I got to the reality of putting on shoes and just couldn't. I did fine vending Tammy's table at a cat show for a couple hours last month, but actual personal interaction is just a step too far, I guess. I've been listening to a ton of Big Beat and dancing awkwardly in my room with the door shut.

Reaction to the new, larger paintings has not been great so far, but there have only been three shows. I just realized I didn't post them here yet! They are both forward and reverse painted on plexi, sometimes two pieces of plexi, in wooden frames.
