This painting is the third of the Gate keepers. The cosmic gate, where all knowledge of creation is kept. The dolphins hold the ancient information of our planet.
Technical info: All the writing(language that developed through the series) in the book of knowledge is written in liquid gold and the triangular open box (atop of rocks on the right) is painted in liquid silver. This was the first time I used actual metallic minerals in a painting. In the proper lighting, they reflect amazing light.

The Famous Tweedle Brothers

"Tweedle Twins"
oil on canvas - 6"x 8"
Appletree Hollow Series

Written under this image in the Appletree Hollow album, was the date of 1827 with the title: Dee & Dum - the Tweedle Twins. They were identical twins who, as far as I can tell, never contradicted each other. Rather, they complimented each other in every way so completely that they became very famous, eventually owning a chain of clothing stores – “The Tweedle Brothers” finest in tailored wool clothing for big men.

#3 Willard & Bert (from left to right) Willard was known to be very bashful and so loved nature that he never managed to shoot any other living creature. It was also stated that he desperately tried to start one of the first vegetarian movements but with very little success.
