Lucy, you're a bit of a genius with that last one. I must admit I'm a fan by now and like seeing this thread much more because of your posts.

yeah this one's really moody and menacing.

are these from life, photos or imagination? should i recognize this guy?

you're much too kind Gaarg!

what's funny is that last one took hardly any time at all, whereas the one before it took about 2-3 hrs. There's something about executing something very fast and fluidly that gives it a certain dynamism. Probably not over-thinking it I guess. I remember a quote from Francis Bacon which was something like "The ideal painting would be a painting where I simply flung the paint at the canvas and the image appeared at once, by pure chance." (paraphrasing). I always thought that was a lovely idea and summed up something very important about cultivating intelligent accidents when making pictures. Anyway, I guess I'm gonna try working on my speed and fluidity, but there's still part of me that loves slaving away on a picture and getting lost in intricate detail.

That one used a photo of Bob from Twin Peaks as a reference. The other one was the Log Lady!

In an ideal world I would be working from life but I'm really just trying to get my chops up atm.

edit: ooo, they're not! this is a new thing... http://fractal.io/

(from the butdoesitfloat ones i linked) i liked the effect of the colour blocking to create the illusion of something solid rather than repeating off into infinity.

Does cover art made from a photo count ?

i really like that one. nice, patternoverlap.
