Beautiful work. . . Would you like to have your art exhibited in our "Gallery" section?

Eric,

Beautiful works. Perhaps, you should make them into prints, large enough that folks can frame and hang in their dojo's.

This would be a good site to "market" them.

P.S. I especially like the tiger. A quiet, peaceful repose. But, woe to those who would mistake it for a kitty cat.

Beautiful! They exude an oriental essence. I feel a haiku coming on ...

Double wow! I'm partial to the dragon with the Uechi ryu caligraphy. Wait, shouldn't the dragon's fists be shokens?

Thank you all for your kind words. I usually find it difficult to display my work because I always think I can do better. Kind of like doing kata, I guess. I would also like to give thanks to Sensei Moulton for his Uechi books, which provided me with the inspiration for these drawings as well as the tiger, dragon, and crane characters.

Sensei Mattson: I would very much like for these to be put in your gallery. Thank you! Do you think there would be a "market" for prints? I would be more than willing to submit my work if people wanted it.

Thanks to all,
Eric

Thanks Eric.

Always appreciate kind words. Maybe I can interst you in adorning one of them with one of your works for my a future reprint or revision.

Sensei Moulton:

If you have any space for artwork in future books, I'd be more than happy to supply the art.

Eric,

These pictures are magnificant. Totally awsome. I have but one small comment, you should have signed them. Take credit where credit is due. I really like the setting you have the crane in.

Great work!!!

Eric:
Had the time to set up your "Virtual Gallery" Site. I agree with Scott that you should have signed them. Also included copyright notice for you, which should be included on all your work. (Am I correct Robb from SF?)
