Thanks everyone. I really do appreciate it.

This is much different then I had intended, but I ran out of time. So I'm glad you like it so much :)

Great job! I love lot about this picture including the way it is split horizontally and the contrast between the calm in the lower panel and the tension and anticipation in the upper panel.

Dave- Thank you! I appreciate the insightful compliment :)

Ramon - Thanks, man. You warm my heart! Now, I just hope I have time to get into an Italian Spideman piece! :)

WOW! This would hand nicely in my home. Prints available? If not, I will just revisit the sight daily to look at it.

Thanks for this.

Mike Hawthorne said...

HA! Thanks! Haven't made any new kinds of prints in a while, but do plan on a sketchbook soon.

Best,
Mike
