    5. Do you have a favorite artist, painting, drawing, sculpture??
    Do you have a favorite artist, painting, drawing, sculpture??

    Just sitting here thinking how much I wish I had some chocolate in the house, and glanced at a painting my son did when he was 16, based on William Hopper's "Nightowls".  Hence the question.

    The real painting is anonymous folks, but a parody has been done with those guys. My son went to school in Texas and called me one day to ask me to send him a copy of this painting. I actually had stationary with Hopper paintings and had purchased it JUST BECAUSE "Nightowls" was included. :D

              Dancing the polka or playing poker?
              My parents had a print of the poker playing dogs. Wish I knew how to post an image in comments.

              Yes that is what I meant to type, Poker, not dancing dogs, ha ha... It may also make a funny print though!

              ROMOS, a true classic, my brother in law bought a house and there was one hanging on a wall. We took it down to discover it covered a big hole in the wall. So when one wonders where to hang this print, where ever there is a hole!

              Thank you both! The image of polka dancing dogs is beyond amusing.
              Is there another print of dogs playing poker, ROMOS? And, how'd you DO that???
