2015-05-06 20:44:18 +0000 UTCThank you for such in-depth feedback! I'm glad you like the art that much! (Admittedly, painting the marigolds was complete indulgence. Originally there were only two of them, then I got a little carried away and had to paint a bunch of extra daisies to balance the composition.)

2015-05-04 03:29:59 +0000 UTCWow, WOW. Marigolds so real that you can taste it...! Wait I mean smell...! I mean...! Then again Marigolds have been used in food before... Ah bugger just ignore my randomness! lol Seriously this is art that is worth taking the time to look into the details as well as the process behind it. Excellent composition and use of negative space. You got a healthy combination of high level details on the subjects and breathing space. This allows eyes to wander around and appreciate the beauty without distraction or confusion. The attention to details on your fully rendered works are incredible as always - from the petals of the white daisies, the peacock feathers, to the intricate patterns of Mitzi's garment on the left image, and to the right, the folds of Mordecai's coat, the wrinkles of his glove, the steel cut serration of his gun, and brass gold of his round rimmed spectacles. My fine arts painting teacher, Sheldon Greenberg, told me last year while I was studying at the Academy of Art university in San Francisco that to make a fruit or vegetable look real in a painting you gotta paint it like to a point where you can taste it, hence the reason why I reffered to the Marigolds earlier, I feel that the principle stays the same with flowers - the colors look so vibrant and full of life. The choice of colors (mute and high saturation) on both images are once again well balanced, this just makes my eyes wander around like a casual stroll through the park, enjoying the scenery while the sun's out and while I'm shaded from the rays by the trees, there's some Yin and Yang going around here! Last but not least the characters themselves - both their poses and facial expressions are very interesting to look at and are true to their personalities. I think I'm going to my local printers on my days off this week and do a poster print of it, it's just so beautiful.

2015-05-03 04:21:08 +0000 UTCThe juxtaposition makes me wonder which character is most dangerous. My knee-jerk answer would be Mordecai- but, looking a little closer, I'm suddenly not so sure. Not so sure at all.
