so.. where's the art!?



























just kidding i love it! a great style you got

....

(very nice, monty, btw)

the two close-up faces are really great. the color there is really sensitive and evocative. the color in the other two is a bit too much for me, they aren't really working together. But yeah, the rendering of all the flesh is really great. I'd love to see some full body nudes.

cheers!

flies: i know what you mean about the colours on the first two. they were a kind of diversion from my usual style.
which is more grimey and loose.

most of them are based on photos of Glasgow tramps, the whole nude-homeless art might be the way to go.

i forgot to link this vid:

Windows Movie Maker is your friend.

FANTASTIC, monty! Such great character studies. Were they all done from models? Any stories behind them?

eek, just saw your post explanation! ha, sorry,

haha cheers Fredo.
i plan to start using live people again, but its a hassle getting people to turn up and pose.
also i had stopped for a year or so i wanted to get warmed up first.

im gonna do some self-portraits soon.

Hey the third one is NICE.
wow
very nice

I like those alot

great stuff.. third one is very bacon

saw called and wants their creepy back.

good stuff.

Loved the first 2. The others not so much. I think the contrasting colours on the first 2 is the big draw. I can't tell if you're using Painter or the real deal, but a little more paint would add lots of cowbell.

how much for a commission piece? 8x10
can you work from a decent pic?

dam shipping from the uk..

this is all rad.
