I have, in fact, painted three canvasses in
my life; two of which were taken by friends
and are hopefully treasured possesions. One
hangs in my bedroom.
One, my favorite, is a photo pasted to a spray
painted canvas which was then covered with
silver paint marker.
I've also painted the occasional warehouse
loading dock and supermarket; not sure if that
counts.
Essentially though I stopped painting as soon
as I discovered digital media; though I do
have computer assisted drawings which show
what happens when one tries to paint with a
computer:

I was 13 and I'm not sure how seriously I
took it. :) Essentially, though, a painting will
never compare to digital art until it becomes
interactive. And yes, thats a challenge.
In the works for one38: A flash or java
controlled representation of a canvas which
would be the worlds first (I believe) completely
collaborative painting. I'll let you know.
