What draws you together initially might be physical attraction, but as you share your thoughts and stories you may find that you're more than just physically compatible. Once you discover that you're ultimately suited for each other, it's time to set the date to get Suited for Each Other.

After a couple full nudes in a row, I was in the mood for something that didn't include a naked male physique (painting wise anyway!). It had also been a long time since I've done a piece that touched on the subject of marriage. This one was definitely a fun piece because the color palette combination was a bit different for me, lots of pink, yellow and green.

This picture is great. Can't wait till the day when I can marry the love of my life. I guess we have to wait until it is legal in the state of Ohio.

I just ordered two of these, the 8.5 by 11 and the 13 by 19. This work is absolutely incredible, so sweet and loving and such a gay positive message. I like that this shows a realm beyond the physical....love, committment, wonderful stuff!

I really enjoy this painting. I wish that it was legal here and that I could get my partner legal to live in the US but alas he is Mexican and the Government hates most Mexicans. Just left with hope or just waiting for when I can move to Mexico.

Austin, I wouldn't say the Government hates most Mexicans. We live in a democracy and like it or not we are responsible for the politicians we elect and the laws they pass no matter how unfair they might be. Our Government is not some evil enemy that controls us, it's our government and we have to educate ourselves, each other and vote to change it.

Nice to see a groom NOT smashing the cake into his partner's face, as in some het wedding pix people apparently find funny.

You're use of color always seems to be perfect in your work. The details down to each little hair amazes me. You're talent is the true work of art. Breathtaking.

Thanks Patrick, Sometimes people suggest I should do some more black and whites like I did years ago, but I just love using color. I like exploring the balance between them and the emotions they can convey.
