now this is what I call erotic art !!! this is so juicy and powerful. Terrific painting skills.

Artist Reply: thank you so much.. this is the first painting,, the one that started it all.. from here i just kept going.. hardly have time to paint houses anymore which was my gig for so many years.. i was never as good as you are though..but everything one does lends itself to greater and bigger things.. small pieces in a larger picture!.. affectionately,

I think, I think it is that intensity of the colours why I like them. As Olga said: so real ... and, hmm, something else. Cool.

Artist Reply: vielen dank! Ich habe auch vergessen dir zu sagen das ich 1 Jahr in Mannheim gewohnt habe! Das war in 1999. Ich hab seit dann viel vergessen, das wegen schreibt meine dochter (13 jahre) das jetzt fuer mich. Das hat spass gemacht an dein website su gehen und deine geschichte in beides Deutsch und English zu lesen. Viele Gruesse, Marisa. (und Gwen, die jetzt alles schreibt =] )
