Mental, nice work, looks the same. Master copies are fun to figure out how they did it.


Jeff m. I was about to post Magritte. By far the smoothest painter I've seen in person. The MOMA in SF has some of his work in their permanent collection. You can't find any brush strokes standing a foot from his paintings and his colors are spot on. Going to check the other artist you named.

Spider...I've always liked Shag's stuff too. Retro.

I always thought that Michealangelo's study of the Libyan Sibyl had what appeared to be a climbing pose. As homage I did one in charcoal back in'94.

I have a few more in the works too.

Justin,
Really like the 4th and 5th one posted! 6th in progress is really interesting as well.
Hope it rains a bit more. :)

Tiki - I knew you saw rock climbing in everything (a familiar affliction), but even in Michelangelo, eh?

Good stuff all, and amazing undertaking Mental. Down to mixing your own paint!
The frame recreation is off the charts obsessive!

Did you check out that video link?
Those dudes were doing hand held video INSIDE the wave while getting tubed.
Outside the box thinking my friends, that is cutting edge stuff... a liquid medium, but still art.

I agree Lolli. I like Klimt too.

And then I admire Alphonse Mucha's work immensely.
