Popular Post Ginseng Posted March 7, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 7, 2015 Hey Guys, You might have noticed my changing avatars with some frequency lately. It's hard to find something that expresses who you are or something essential about your interests. A picture of a cigar? So pedestrian. A cigar smoking dog? Cool. Angry Mod Wilkey? Badass Asian Shootfighter? Another agitated Asian? Sinister Asian evil mastermind? Hmm, I sense a theme. Ummm.... WTF?!? Too cute to be real? Well, I have finally settled on an avatar that I will use here on Friends of Habanos exclusively. Here it is! This is an original artwork commissioned from our very own CanadianBeaver, Lisa. Here is a slightly larger version so you can gander at the details. I'm keeping the high res for my very own. Maybe I'll make a Giclee print. So, what do you all think? [ Wilkey 8
Habana Mike Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Very nice and what great work Lisa! Reminds me of an old avatar of yours circa 2013
Skyfall Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Got to go with Lisa's art! I did like the half naked lady though on the last one......
Colt45 Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 I think you should watermark it so no thieving magpie takes advantage! I like how you incorporated your older avatar - great job Lisa!
JohnS Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 I like Lisa's art, but man...Angry Mod Wilkey, I enjoyed that too for a short time!
Smallclub Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 "Meisje met de parel" by Johannes Veermeer. The Mona Lisa of the North… I love it. Excellent avatar!
Fuzz Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 When I first saw the small version of your avatar, I thought it was, "Lady with the pearl earring, smoking a cigar, whilst driving" 1
KRunch61 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Classy move, Wilkey. Lisa's very talented! Wonder what the subject is smoking. Partagas?
canadianbeaver Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 It was my pleasure and an honor to be asked. Glad you all like it! Cheers! Lisa
Guest rob Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 That is pretty great! Congrats, Wilkey; Brilliant, Lisa

CanuckSARTech Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 LOL. Very cool. I too like how the old avatar has been incorporated into the painting. Awesome work as always, Lisa!!!
