hey thank you again.

Frank, your work is great. My favorite is "Danny II" which I added to my collection. It seems more dynamic with the houses receding into the background, and "Danny" really just POPS of the canvas. Just awesome.

hey thank you so much! for the comments and the stars. I appreciate it.

Posted by st_gemma on January 06, 2011

Frank, your work is amazing! its all so wonderfully rendered. also i love your use of negative space. beautiful gallery.

Posted by frankoriti on January 06, 2011

thanks so much for the kind words! ..and taking the time to check out my work.

Posted by jlinkous15 on January 06, 2011

thanks for the warm welcome. i was actually admiring your gallery before you commented. in what medium are the most recent portraits completed? they look like colored pencil (i feel like i can see grain, but it might be my imagination). my second guess is watercolor.

Posted by frankoriti on January 06, 2011

hey! theyre actually done in oil. if youre seeing grain, its probably the light hitting the canvas. Ihavent used colored pencil in a little while, although I'd love to give it another go.

Posted by frankoriti on January 06, 2011

...and thanks for checking things out!

Posted by jlinkous15 on January 06, 2011

i just now realized where the written part of the piece is located. i'm so used to it being directly below the image that i was lost. well kudos. oil is something i've had a more than difficult time picking up.

Posted by frankoriti on January 08, 2011

yes .. theres so many different way to apply it. I love it.

Posted by julce on December 07, 2010

Great portrait!!!

Posted by frankoriti on December 07, 2010

hey thank you so much for all of the comments and stars! it means a lot. thank you!

Posted by getzilla on November 20, 2010

Incredible work! You have some crazy patience and discipline. I get itchy and antsy just thinking about sitting down and drawing. Peppers was at OU when I was there, but I never had him. I had Ron Kroutel for painting and drawing classes. He has probly retired by now. enough of this, get buisy on your show..

Posted by frankoriti on November 29, 2010

Hey thanks. Peppers is around and Ive gotten the pleasure of taking his painting class a couple times and assisting him in class. Ron is still active in the art community in the Athens area and I've had him for visits in my studio before. Theyre both great. I'm workin hard and looking forward to my show! Great meeting you (sort of).
