"Popular Mechanics" finding my way

In the early stages of figuring of what the show is about, I have a few concrete ideas that I 've begun but I 'm also just trying things and seeing if I like the look, The purples and blues in this piece and the treatment of the "sky" take time to get right, there has to be a balance, and I'm not there yet.
This Harold the Helicopter ride from Six Flags is figuring pretty heavily in the language of the show, love this guy, I may remove the face from this piece, like I said I'm still playing with where the show is going as a whole. There are about forty canvases in the studio that are dedicated towards figuring it out.
I don't want to spoil the surprise by saying too much at one go, but you can see the process
over on facebook at "Andrew Shay Hahn (The mad craft shoppe)" in the Works in Progress album.
Also Press Fest is this weekend so head to 850 Dundas West to hear all kinds of great bands, chill out on the patio and check out my dedicated wall.
And if you want to check out an amazing band head over to Youtube and listen to the Paddingtons it's the best rock'n'roll I've heard in years.
cheers,
A.Shay Hahn
