Wow LiquidMethod, your dad has awesome talent. I love the coloring in that one. I'd love to see more of his work!
 
i say leave it the size it is... you can see the intricacies much better! maybe make a smaller one as well, but leave at least one the same size. it's very good brah!

here's something i threw together. :)

^Self portrait? Your line work is mesmerizing jsg. Your painting - it makes me want to see your palette in a major way. You have this chroma/value/color thing going on and it makes me curious if you begin that process on the palette itself or if you work it out in the piece. Weird, I know, but I'm curious still. Is it oil or acrylic? I was assuming oil.

Ryan, your work all has such cross feeling of grafitti art and typography/digital/graphic art that I can't believe you don't use the graphic design programs. I think you'd enjoy mixing them in with your style.

Here's one I started a long time ago and decided to finish today. I'm not so much a fan of this one, but I'm posting it anyway.
 
hah yea, some seriously trippy stuff done by a seriously sober individual, ironically.

He uses a technique called egg tempera where first you coat the canvas with a mixture of pigment and egg. The tempera dries quickly, which allows you to use many coats of paint and gives a nice effect. Also lasts longer.

no thats not weird, its interesting to hear how others work.

i mix up my gradients on the palette. i tend to think about color and mix it sort of in a grid. so for example you can go from orange > blue along one side, and from one value of orange > darker value of orange down another side, then from dark blue > light blue on the opposite side, then of course light blue > light orange on teh last side.

i don't know if that makes sense?
 
JSG your style is absolutely fucking disgusting. and i mean that in an unbelievably good way. :D

i don't know how to put to words the way you draw, but it's fucking original, intriguing, and awesome all at the same time. i've mentioned that some of your stuff reminds me of hans bellmer, but it also for some reason makes me think of a hans bellmer derek hess hybrid. i especially like that first one. they all give me a feeling of discomfort, but intense appreciation.

also:

that one's cool as fuck. it's the most bellmer looking of the last batch, but it's crisp and really fluid.
 
bellmer is a pretty big influence on me. he is such an amazing draftsman. when he would draw the calf of a leg, or the concavity of a thumb bending, he fucking knew where the contour was going and how to do it.
