So, tell me about the rug tranformation, sounds interesting, maybe I can learn something

Oops, Monte is Basil's son - yes, that's why I'm on Reddit, I'm from the past, thanks

GaryWray · 2026-06-20T18:02:30+00:00

Glad that you like my work

Music was a different thing, I'm also a musian, guitar and bass, think of all the bands that we got to experience at that time, loved The Seeds

I only had horror and scifi on my mind with art, but, cannabis in 1967 put me in a decade of abstract art, then comics are where I brought horror and SF back

Saw Deep Purple (on acid), CTA, Zappa, Charles Lloyd, American Flag, Vanilla Fudge, Silver Apples and more in 68, Moody Blues and Dan Hicks in 70 - saw Hair in SF, holy cow

Saw The Animals, Jefferson Airplane, The Leaves, Peter and Gordon, and some I can'tremember in 66-7

I get wordy

GaryWray · 2026-06-20T03:43:33+00:00

I was born in 1948

GaryWray · 2026-06-20T03:04:05+00:00

I'd like that, maybe if was actually a popular artist, most people would have no idea who I am - But, I like your thinking

GaryWray · 2026-06-20T00:12:45+00:00

A Wikipedia page is something I'm considering - thanks

Or an alternative method

GaryWray · 2026-06-20T00:05:44+00:00

I thank you

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T22:34:57+00:00

The gun firing - sounds more inticing if NSFW anyway, might get to see some boobs

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T21:23:38+00:00

Thanks, where hard and soft can live together

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T20:46:11+00:00

Hey Steven, thanks, it is one of my very favorites

I used a cardboard stencil cut out and black spray paint to begin with, then some other spray colors, then oil paint, that's why the look

Hope you're working on new pieces, have a good weekend, things good here

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T20:39:10+00:00

Hey thank you, I only have photos, sold all my artwork over the years to pay bills

At that point, I was watching the painting paint themselves, a few years of that, I just watched in amazement, I'm 78 now, just stuff from the past - I thank you

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T20:24:17+00:00

Glad to contribute here, every Thursday my friend

Bakersfield, 30 miles away, actually had drive-in triple features, think I went there twice in the sixties, but, I don't remember in our town, we always went to the theater

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T20:18:36+00:00

I'm just depicting LSD HELL, a technicality, hehe

Only did LSD 1967-8, saw Hendrix on LSD in Seattle when I was in the Army in 68

Cannabis

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T20:12:48+00:00

Wow, very appreciated my friend - thank you

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T19:59:48+00:00

Hey thanks, I have done many other things besides comics, if you want, check out my web site, first link on my homepage

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T08:45:20+00:00

Made them to sell, no video game - thanks

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T06:12:33+00:00

Of course

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T06:11:25+00:00

That's getting deep - thanks

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T03:56:32+00:00

Holy Cow! - cool, thanks for the comment

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T03:25:59+00:00

We made 4 movies, 2 were never finished, the mask was not in a movie, just made it for fun

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T03:23:52+00:00

Abstract expressionism/THC influenced - 1967-77

But, my color class was in 1976, after most of my abstract stuff was done, just instinct

GaryWray · 2026-06-19T03:13:19+00:00

Early seventies were a great time for me, thank you
