Very nice, I love the process of it all. The coloring in v3 is fantastic.

Why, thank you.

You could say that's somehow the feeling the piece will have.

I just need to finish the overall composition and all that, and then off to work on the details ---which I personally love and very much enjoy to do!

Your art very much reminds me of the film for Pink Floyd's The Wall. I like it ;)

Fantastic progress today!!!



Getting the feeling of the piece down the paper. Working on composition.

Got rid of colour tests for now, as they are unneeded at this point in time.

As always, I will upload this image to the very first post as well --comments and critique appreciated as always.

Question: People tend to always relate my work/art to the following artists; Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Banksy and Frida Kahlo. Would you agree with it? Why?

:)

@Knight & Spanky: Thanks for your kindness. I will be more than happy to keep the updates coming! Also, sorry for being less active in HsC! for this last couple of days, but life --really-- is getting busier here. Working double-shifts almost every day --If not that, then I am most likely to be found practicing, drawing, translating my poems, and so on.

I would agree with those who liken your art to Salvador Dalí, Picasso I'm not familiar enough with the others to give an opinion on that. I cannot really say why, just that your art elicits a similar feeling as Picasso/Dalí, I can't really put it into words honestly. Art for me is some that can't really be put into words. Its feeling, thoughts, memory's and emotion. Not some thing that can be fit into nice a neat little category.

I have posted this on ConceptArt, one of the most professional and wise communities as per Art in the web.

There is a chance I will --as critique is provided-- put at exercise some changes and whatnot.

I'll try to keep this one thread 100% updated.

However, may this not be the case, here is CA's thread link:

Wasn't very inspired today, I'll admit.

Did some colour tests, as shown:

Unrelated to the piece I am working on --however still related to the Art I practice-- here are two versions of a logo I am working on.





Let me know what ya'll think about it!
