yaba daba doo time...


I know what you must all be thinking (Im clever that way) you are all thinking that you have seen these images before...Well maybe you have. Also, you may be thinking I'm running out of subjects for my blog (impossible) The truth is I actually just brought them out for some fresh air. Ten years ago the flintstone people (hanna/Barbara) asked me to portray the flintsones in the style of famous artists (this was a dream assignment for me) I painted them all in oil and put a frame around them and sent them off for there approval. A few notes here: On the Wilma painting, it first read 'Oh Fred I'll never cheat on you again' That was a massive no no.They said Wilma would never cheat, so I changed it to 'oh Fred I'm so sorry...' Also it was the first time that Betty was ever painted naked, We have to thank Matisse for that....Anyway dear readers, enjoy the paintings and of course have a gay old time.....( apologies to my european readers (you know who you are) 'Have a gay old time" were some of the lyrics in the theme song.

Cick on image to make larger, unless of course you simply don't want too.
P.S. I painted 5 others, not shown , so don't try to click on those.

Perfect match for Barney to be painted as Van Gogh...indeed a dream assignment! (I will not tell you how much I want to see more oil on canvas!...shame on me)
